    Still waiting for my SP to check her front porch to find the package that was left on Saturday. I'll wait a couple of days then initiate a search through USPS in case it was delivered to the wrong front porch![/QUOTE]

    If I am your SP I checked my porch and there isn't a package there. I even have a 20gal rubber tote to put things in and nothing even there. Hope I'm not the one. Good Luck!

    Knitette, I haven't seen those Peels before, look interesting. Love the Big blocks patterns. I seen something like that and have been wanting to get one, thought it would be super fast way to make some tops. Hope you post some of them when finished.

    What a great idea with the button trinket box and putting things in it. Have to remember that and see what I can do with something. Wonderful!

    Such wonderful packages! You ladies are doing great in letting me know when you mailed out packages, I only have 3 I have not heard from. Will probably hear from them today. Keep up the good work and let me know when you receive as well. Thank you for your help, Lori

    Some of you might recognise Eilean Donan (or 'Dogan' lol) castle. This was taken last weekend. Our holiday (vacation) lodge is about an hour and a half away. Baxter has now got rid of his lampshade.

    Hmmmm, I am one of those that haven't received yet. Maybe today will be the day! I'm working on next month already. I wonder if it costs less to mail our pkgs by another way. Has anyone done this? I love filling my secret pal's box but cringe when I mail it!

    Sunrise the two cheapest methods I've found are the padded flat rate Priority Mail envelope and the USPS Regional rate box A. Box A comes in two shapes and is a bit smaller than the medium Priority box. The flat rate envelope costs $6.80 and the Regional Rate Box A varies between $6.80 and 9.00 depending on distance. Both have to be ordered on-line as they are not available from local postoffices.

    This is a pic of the great package I received from QuiltNut4ever this past week. Tons of fabric, including a couple of one yard cuts, a lovely sewing machine mat/ caddy, tape, scissors, binding clips, beads, books and more. Thank you again, Lillian.

    Youre right...nothing beats the feel of that little fuzzy head against your cheek, although a sloppy hug and kiss from a toddler comes really close
