You can whisper her name to me and I won't tell. I promise. Please, pretty please, with sugar on top?

Sorry I had the wrong Gram. I need GladGrams to PM please.

Barbm 09-01-2010 08:36 AM

no Blue Bell- I am very good about keeping secrets. Besides I have "sometimers"- sometimes I remember and sometimes I don't- and I could give you the wrong answer.

Let's just say I have intuitive powers and she posted something that went "click" and I went hunting.

I know I am not as clever as Patsy, I see the things posted here and then I shop- looking for the "perfect" gift and I get frustrated because I don't think I'm doing a good job. But, I'm on to something for my angelee- now to find the perfect item.

Awww, c'mom we won't tell!

:lol: :lol:

Great pressies. Love that best press!! I use it all the time.

mcdaniel023 09-01-2010 01:11 PM

I have never used Best Press but have heard great things about it.

OMG, you will love it! When it is on sale I buy 3 at a time! I get the unscented tho because the scent bothers me. I just found out I have asthma. :(

wvdek 09-01-2010 07:01 PM

My SQA sent me some of the Linen scented Best Press last week and it smells very nice. My DD didn't complain and she has chemical alergies. Amazing how far that little bottle is going to go. Like how crisp the fabric gets especially those pesky little pieces.

Leota 09-01-2010 09:00 PM

to my little angelee... I mailed you a pressie today :D

Chrickett 09-02-2010 03:23 AM

I use it all the time and I love it. I like it better then starch,

Thanks to my Angel. I received a package a few days ago, but have not had time to photo or even thank her here for her generosity. Lovely Jinny Beyer prints -- oh, the saturation of color! the patterns! the designs! yuuuummmmmmmmmmm.

Harmony 09-02-2010 03:37 PM

Just got a birthday card from my SQA. She recently sent me a package with a great magazine and some fat quarters and a quilt pattern. In her birthday card she informed me that I will get that magazine for TWO YEARS!!! Talk about the gift that keeps on giving! Thank you so much, SQA--I think it's one of the best quilting magazines out there, and I am absolulely thrilled! Sending lots of hugs your way! :D :D :D

mini quilts.......called Joyful Christmas.....

I have some plaid homespun that will go perfectly with these patterns........and two of them are paper piecing........so I really can't wait to get started.

Here's a picture of the pattern and also a picture of the pink time piece which should keep me on time.

Mary Jane I love the watch, and the patterns look like a lot of fun to make.

Redgo243 09-03-2010 04:28 AM

To My Secret Quilt Angel,
Thank you so much for your thoughtfullness. I really appreate you thinking of our Anniversary. It was really nice to get a gift.
I loved everything, the candles, the fat quarters, the patterns,
just everything. My DD will be coming home this weekend may be I get a picture up.
My kids forgot our anniversary, so when I was bragging to my son about the box I got he said it was from him. lol
I have been working hard sewing some purses I can never get a picture up I'm electronically challenged. lol
Angel, I loved everything and Thank you again. I will get a Thank you card out ASAP.
Thanks,
Cynthia

I've seen postings about Best Press. Do you use it as you go along- or just once before cutting your fabric?

(Thinking I may have to get some to try)

sandpat 09-03-2010 05:58 PM

Barb..I use it once before cutting, then I spritz the block right before I trim it square..but thats just me, I'm sure everyone has their own technique :D:

I recieved the nicest journal from my Serena angel today! Boy, I sure wasn't expecting anything, so it was truly a surprize! The card she sent is cool...its both nice AND funny at the same time! Thank you so much for thinking of me...I really appreciate it! I promise not to talk to you before coffee :lol:!

magnolia 09-03-2010 06:16 PM

I received a gift from my angel. Thank you very much. She sent me some blocks, a pad of paper, some bobbins, and a couple other nice gifts. Thank you so much! She also asked if I wear glasses. Yes, I do. Sorry, I am unable to post a picture at the moment.

Barb, I use it instead of spraying water on the fabric. I use steam too, and it really takes out the wrinkles. It is great if you want something crisp without being stiff.

wvdek 09-03-2010 07:34 PM

BarbM I too use before cutting, after sewing seams, and just before squaring up.

mcdaniel023 09-04-2010 01:48 AM

I washed some fat quarters for a swap and then used the Best Press to help get the wrinkles out. Wow. I was impressed.

Barbm 09-04-2010 05:12 AM

will definitely get some- I like to spray water to get out wrinkles on everything I iron. Guess I'll be looking for gallon containers. :)

Barb, I saw it in gallon size somewhere on the web, sorry I can't remember where tho. :( I buy the unscented because of my breathing problems. I just found out I have asthma. :(

I OPENED MY BIRTHDAY PACKAGE AT 5AM THIS MORNING :) COULDN'T WAIT ANY LONGER!!! I received a fabric bundle of the most beautiful bird print panal and coordinates, it is so beautiful! and it was beautifully wrapped in birthday cake fabric!
THANK YOU SO MUCH, YOU ARE SUCH A WONDERFUL SECRET ANGEL! i have looked at those fabrics on line and (gazed in loving wonderment at their beauty) but it was a splurge i could not justify financially...and here they are, what a wonderful gift, sometimes i don't know how you figure out these things....

Leota 09-05-2010 04:54 AM

CK.... Happy birthday! Would love to see pictures of your goodies.
