    Yes I love this one too. They are all beautiful. Now I am not so sure about mine. :cry:

    Thank you K, I wish I had joined the board sooner. Perhaps the Japanese ladies might like to do the whole thing again sometime, so that I can put my name down.

    Everyone has created stellar quilts! I love how they all turned out. You gals are so creative and I can see you went above and beyond for our Japan Twist. I think our Japanese counterparts are going to be thrilled. Let's hope they want to trade again so we can get more participants!

    I sent my package to the post office with DH this morning. He came home and said he had to fill out another address label, and he hoped he got it right! :roll: :roll: I hope so also! :shock: :shock: :lol: :lol:

    I guess if It comes back to me, I'll take it myself next time. Said he had to fill out a form and put down that it was a gift. It cost him 17.00 :lol: :lol:

    The man at the Post Office wasn't much help, said he didn't know much about it, had never sent a package to Japan before!! Ah, life in a very small town!!! :wink:

    I had wraped it all lup in paper and put it in a large squishy envelope, I didn't want things to be moving around in it! He didn't say how much it weighted, but I'm sure more than it should! :lol: :lol: :lol:
