I received an angel package from mscupid804 today and everything she chose for me was perfect!!

Included was 3 fat quarters and 1/2 a yard of my favorite color fabric - PINK!!! A beautiful pink mug rug, several sewing notions and sewing machine needles; Microwave popcorn and gevalia coffee - delish!!; a coffee mug from her home state of Virginia - one of our favorite places to visit!; 2 puzzle books and a jigsaw puzzle - my favorite pastime after sewing!!; foundation paper because I love to do paper piecing!; a travel sewing kit; a dry erase board and an adorable pair of Angel embroidery scissors and MORE!!! The box was stuffed!!

Thank you Teresa for your generosity!! You made my day!!

Nancy

Very nice package. Mscupid is a sweetie. It was wonderful of you to provide pix Nancy!

I know that in the past angel packages haven't been acknowledged in the swap thread for fear of hurting feelings, but I think they should be. If people are mean enough to get a package but not send one back, so be it. And if people are thoughtless enough to send very skimpy or icky old stuff with bugs, maybe they will think twice about it in the future.

Also have an 82 year old husband, he is active but still takes alot of my time... Would love to get to know you all better but this is a huge board and if it were just the Secret Pal thingy would be a bit easier, but think that number was 180+
last time I looked, very hard to say hi to individuals... So I just wanted you all to know I care and would like to be considered a friend... Rosemary
Hi Friend. Good, bad or in between, we are all here for each other.

Wandercreek, I'm sorry you are being pulled in so many different directions at once. I know it can't be easy. You and your family are in my prayers.

I agree too. It is sad and unpleasant that someone will sign to receive but not play the game by giving. I am glad that Lori is giving bad feedback for these people, not because I am nasty, but because they have let undeserving folks down.

Beautiful swap you recieved. I hope you like PINK.It's so sad when this happens.And a angel has to step in.The angels try to give extra attention to the swap as it is very late when they are called in.Don't take it personal. It is the sender's problem not the recievers.Enjoy your gift. Mary
