They are absolutly fabulous!!!!!! lucky lucky lucky you....

Tink's Mom 02-27-2009 07:04 PM

Izy, What a lovely box of goodies. Terri, you know all the good stuff, and you are generous to a fault!!!

Don't touch her dog, or I'll have to send Tink to hunt you down...LOL you could bribe her with just about anything...

tlrnhi 02-27-2009 08:59 PM

tslowery? Not a problem..give me your addy and I'll make it to your house toot-sweet and "help" you along. No butt kicking required. lol Maybe some stash snatching. lol

Elle...there's a package almost ready to head out to you too! But, you know, you can pilfer thru Izy's in the meantime,,,,that is IF she'll share. I doubt she'll share the biccys. They are probably all gone. lol

Tink? I wouldn't take Sasha....but by the looks of your little doggy there, my Big Boy is wanting a treat and your little doggie looks just snack size. lmao

Dojo... I do it because I would want someone to help me out if I were in a place where fabric was an outrageous price or couldn't get any pretty things. Plus, those ladies in Spain make some AWESOME things!!
The fabric I send is just fabric I have that 1) I either don't like anymore or 2) fabric that I have bought and got at a good price, so I just share.
I also send big scraps that I have and I KNOW Izy LOVES crazy quilts, so this helps her out. She also shares with others too!

Butterflyspain 02-28-2009 12:10 AM

What are you, Terri, just wonderful, and I didnīt even ask. Izy is a sweety and I am sure she would share with me but if there is a parcel coming to me then she doesnīt have to. Your materials will be put to good use.

Knowing Izy those biccys have all gone. :? Never mind I am trying to lose weight anyways. :( Not easy though :roll:

Elle Hugs

Izy 02-28-2009 01:51 AM

Elle, you know I will always share with you like you do with me cos we is bessy quilting mates :D :D :D Yep you guessed right, biccies all gone!! :roll:

I am ALREADY putting some of your scraps to good use, I have made 11, 6" mini's ....in Terracotta's, green's and gold's I am winging it again, no pattern :D

Butterflyspain 02-28-2009 02:02 AM

Canīt wait to see that one, looking forward to Tuesday.

You are a very clever lady

Elle

tlrnhi 02-28-2009 02:40 AM

Yes, Elle...one for you, one for Izy. I just have to space them out so you both don't get packages at the same time!
Elle...you do know that if you eat anything fattening with a friend, the calories don't count! Same thing with broken cookies...no calories..they all fall out. So, whenever you eat a biscuit or anything that someone would think is fattening, just break it, give it a shake and all the calories will just fall right out! :) :) :)

Oh Izy...I can't wait to see what you are making. I'm sure it's pretty!

UH ah so thats the secret, thanks for sharing that one :lol: LOL Anyways no chance of Izy sharing those cookies she has eaten them already without a thought for her starving biccy loving friend.
:(

Well? That just means I'll have to find some for you! :)

I meant to tuck some tea into Izy's package, but forgot after I got it all taped up. I'll tuck it into yours. I'm sure you'll enjoy it. Maybe Izy could make some scones and you 2 can have tea and scones together. :)

Oh yes we have lots of love and good friends on this board even if we have never met it doesnīt seem to matter. The wonderful things people do for each other here is amazing.

Well I am sure we can run to a cream scone or two, with strawberry jam YUMMY

Tink's Mom 02-28-2009 09:02 AM

Terri, I hope that Big Boy doesn't get tummy trouble from having a little Mexican Snack (Tink!!!)

JoanneS 02-28-2009 01:05 PM

Izy - is darling Sasha a King Charles? What a sweet pet!

tlrnhi 02-28-2009 04:44 PM

I'm thinking we need to do a retreat at Elle's and Izy's just for the scones! :)
No, Big Boy won't get a tummy ache....he LOVES treats (snacks of any sort) lol

jbsstrawberry 02-28-2009 04:48 PM

That Terri, sure is some special kinda gal! But then you're pretty doggon special too Izy (and Elle, and well all of ya!!)

Susan in Texas 02-28-2009 04:48 PM

I think a retreat is a wonderful idea. Scones or no scones. Wouldn't it be great if your retreat was in Texas instead of Spain? :thumbup:

Hey Lisa! Hugs and kisses to my girls!
I think we have a bunch of special people on the board!

Ok, why not just do a "hopping retreat"?
We can start out in one place, then hop and hop to other places. Works for me!

zyxquilts 02-28-2009 09:08 PM

It's wonderful to see the Terri the Fabric Fairy has struck again!!! I can hardly wait to see what you make with it Izy. :D :D :D

Butterflyspain 02-28-2009 11:33 PM

Terri, Hopping sounds good to me.

When do we start the bunny jumping.

Elle

Izy 03-01-2009 01:45 AM

Glad everyone is having some fun :D Ya'll better hurry as I feel some scones coming on this afternoon...sorry none for you Elle :wink: :lol:

Have you got some of that extra strong elastric for your 'bungee' jumping Terri???

Joanne: Sasha is a Cavelier King Charles Spaniel, abit bigger and longer in the nose that King Charles Spaniels...much prettier I think :D

Butterflyspain 03-01-2009 03:45 AM

Ah so you ate all the biccys and you are now going to eat all the scones.
Only got one word for you then
F A T T Y LOL (She isnīt really, think she could anything she wants and she wouldnīt put on weight) :x

Elle

tlrnhi 03-01-2009 03:52 AM

Izy...that's mean you won't share with Elle! If you are worried about her gaining weight, just break the scone, shake it and the calories will fall out! No problem! :)

Since you told me this trick I have been shaking and shaking. Will let you know

tlrnhi 03-01-2009 04:12 AM

It works! I'm telling you....I swear by it! lol

Elle

Ermmmm.... I WISH that was true Elle, I have gained about 16 pounds since coming to Spain...and I am only 5'2" tall so each pound measures 2" round!! :roll: :( :lol:

I will share...but not sure about JOhn, he is the scone scoffer in this house!! :lol:

Karenmay 03-01-2009 05:50 AM

I have a solution to your problem Izy!....If you're the wrong weight for your height..........Just wear high heels!!....works for me! ( im now into 6 inch heels) lol!

:lol: :lol: :lol: :lol: :lol: LOL!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
gee, that will save A LOT of shaking those broken scones. Was thinking she was going to have to agitate and dance with them like a washing machine on crack. I know, I have some extra poundage I would like to be shed of. Now, about high heels,...I am 5'2 1/2....so to even get close to correct weight for height...I would need a (thinking about the heel height here, math not being my strong suit :wink: )...aw heck, I probably need a pair of stilts! :shock: :D :D :D

What a wonderful person! Who wouldn't love to get a package like that in the mail. A quilters dream. Thx for sharing.

would make you bawl for sure!
happy, happy tears, forget hallmark cards, just send fabrics...they say LOVE, cuz i am very sentimental about all mine, so could only share with those that would love them too.
Izy seems we accidentally gave you Elle's few xtra pounds, (she doesn't 'sound' like she needs to lose much).
now me, - I am not huge, but some to spare since we all seem to like all this sharing stuff, lol. any takers? I can't possibly get up on stilts, and how am I gonna quilt up there, LOL :lol:

GailG 03-02-2009 07:21 PM

What lovely people you guys are. Now all this talk about SCONES. Do any of you have a real good scones recipe?

Barb M 03-03-2009 12:47 AM

Oh my gosh, i've just read this thread. You guys here are the best of the best, there is so much love here i just cry reading all this. Izy your package is so very very beautiful, for a very special lady. I've been thinking about you so much, and Terri is a very dear angel...i can hardly wait to see what you make.

Izy 03-03-2009 01:37 AM

Thanks Barb, Terri is a special little star that brightens my life up so much :D :D :D

I have started a scrappy quilt ...just doing whatever I fancy at this stage, using alot of the scraps what I got from Terri, Elle and Janstar, last night I sat and stitched about 100 tiny 4 patches, using 1.25" squares .....so now you can imagine how small the scraps are lol!! :D

kd124 03-04-2009 12:12 AM

Izy, those are fabulous. can't wait to see what your first creation will be. I know it will be great.

Terri--You are just the sweetest person.
