Posted - Aug 06 2007 : 08:56:01 AM I am glad this is workng out for everyone. Sorry- I got so overwhelmed with so many things that this kept getting pushed to the back of my never ending pile of "TO DO'S" so I think the way Sunshine has this figured out is great!

Posted - Jul 06 2007 : 11:02:57 AM should we all just give up on this last item. I am at a loss as to what to do. then what do I do with the stuff I am holding too for the last person I have been trying to get a hold of her for two weeks I am figuring her life has gotten real busy and she is not able to do this.

Posted - Jun 06 2007 : 12:18:36 PM Oh good, I'm glad they fit--I made them a little smaller than the adult sized headbands, so i was kind of holding my breath hoping they wouldn't be too small! But that's the nice thing about that yarn. There is just enough spandex or elastic or whatever it is in there to make them super stretchy!
I'm glad they like them!

Posted - May 25 2007 : 1:27:33 PM well I guess I have to wait till next week with the long weekend as still not here. |
sunshine |
Posted - May 24 2007 : 05:25:34 AM that would be me. When ever there is something odd I always do my item last and some times I forget to count out how many items first don't worry about it. If something is short I usually figure oh well that is how it is more important everyone else gets something. I just funhosting don't worry about shipping back. Take care sunshine
