Joanna....received my apron today. It's wonderful! Being from Michigan originally, I love apples. The potholders are much needed. Thank you so much.

 My partner has not received her apron yet. . . I have the postoffice tracking the package and they have informed me they cannot locate it . Phewe. . . . So, in all fairness to my swap partner. . . another apron is on the way , this time shipping from a different post office, knowing we will have better luck this time! ( they say 3rd times a charm!. . let's hope so!)

Christy, The way I download is to go to the icon with the up arrow and the little yellow box - far right, click on that, then when the next screen comes up click on browse, find your photo that you want to post then click on upload - it takes a few seconds for it to load, you will see the link on your message, then hit post new reply and the whole message should pop up with your photo attached.
Hope this helps - good luck :)
Hugs, Ruth

Raine... You had said you were mailing my apron out on the 2nd. I still haven't received it. Did you mail it? I'm asking because I'm hoping it hasn't got lost in the mail. Please let me know. Thanks! :)
Everyone... Thanks so much for showing pictures of your beautiful aprons! I love seeing them! I would love to see them all! Have a Great Day! :)

Hi Everyone!
Glad to see everyone is receiving their aprons! To my swap partner
Christy925, I did receive your package and you should be receiving yours any day now.
I had lost my internet connection due to the storms on the east coast and have been dealing with a personal matter that has taken up way to much of my time. . . so I apologize to all of you for being late in responding and to my swap partner who is receiving her apron so very late.

Emily, I got my apron on Friday and I really love it. I already used it while making apple and blueberry pie. Sorry I did not get back to you sooner but I opened it after returning from the ER with my yougest and watching him carefully all weekend did not leave me much time on the computer.
Thanks again,
God bless,

Joanna...
I sent the apron and the tracking shows it arrived. Can you please let me know if you've received it? |

Raine... I'm glad you like the apron! I loved it myself and it was hard to part with. So much so that I'm making myself the same one this weekend! :) I'm sorry you've been ill and I hope you're feeling much better now. Sinus infections suck! I've had my share of them. I had a massive sinus infection and broncitis earlier this year and I was out of commission for 2 months so I totally understand. No worries! I look forward to getting the apron you made for me. I can't wait to see it!
To upload photos I believe you just click on the button in the upper left corner of where you type your message. It has an arrow on it with a little picture of mountains. It opens up a box for you to upload the photo.
Have a great holiday weekend! Rest and take care of yourself! :)

Cherise- I apologize first for the delay in saying thank you so much!! What an awesome apron!!! You spoiled me with potholders to match! Your sewing is amazing and well I just can't say how much I love this apron. I am a fall person and will wear this alot! I am so thankful for all the time and effort you put into my gift!
Now for the second apology. I will be mailing yours out tomorrow as I have been in and out of bed with a sinus infection that took over my face and swelled it up to 10x the size! I knew I felt weird and had no energy but them bam I was in bed and could not eat or really hold my head up! Thank God for antibiotics is all I can say. So I am a little behind.
Thanks once again. I will take pictures and then how do I upload them on here?
Go be a blessing to someone!
