Send me a message personally if you have not received it yet. Okay?

Thanks

Thank you Debra for a beautiful package! I love the dishclothes and apple cozy and cannot wait to try the recipe. Congrats on the new grandbaby, they are so much fun!

Thanks for being so patient.

Susan, again thank you for the dish cloth. Please extend my thanks to the other Susan!

Those darn patterns, I had to rework a dishcloth pattern recently because of very poor editing.
I wish the folks that publish those patterns would actually try to make those items before they print them. I am forgiving of folks who write up their patterns the best they can and share them with others, but the one I had to re-do was in a booklet making money for a yarn company; I don't even want to start another project from that booklet. >:(
I wonder how many newbies to knitting or crochet quit because they don't realize that a faulty pattern is to blame for a wonky project.
Please excuse this little rant.
I'll get off my soap box now.

Thank you again Susan and Susan!

Susan,
My husband told me it was like Christmas at our house. When I got your package I immediately tied one on (an apron of course) The Suds you sent got used right away in my laundry; that formula works great and smells fresh! I had some tea and toast with the apple honey; thank you so much for the treat! I love the apple dish towel, and the dish cloth was so sweet! The little worm on the apple leaf has the cutest eyes. even hubby went "AAAWWWWWW" when he saw it!
Thank you so much for a fun exchange! And the best of luck to you with your Farmers Market sales!
Montana Hugs!

Hello Glad you liked everything ! I have to confess I cant take credit for the dishcloth. I worked on mine for almost 3 weeks knitting then ripping over and over. I finally gave up and packed up all my cotton yarn and yelled HELP to my friend and farmgirl sister Susan Domer. Turned out there was a mistake in the pattern ! Anyway she whipped up the one I sent in an afternoon. I loved the worm too!
Thanks again for being a great partner !
Susan

Amy, glad to hear that you got the dishcloth, scrubbie and recipes. Both the dishcloth and scrubbie were knitted. My crocheting skills are very limited, so I do a lot of knitting. So glad we were partners, I love the items you made for me and plan on trying one of the yummie recipes you sent me this week end. Nancy
farmmilkmama Posted - Sep 01 2011 : 5:42:06 PM
Nancy!!! Thank you so much for the fabulous dishcloth, scrubbie, and recipes. My husband even said the dishcloth was cool and was wondering how you made it because the stitch looked so different from what I had made. :) I really appreciate it! Thanks for being an awesome partner and making my first crocheting swap so fun! :)

To Farmallgrl Angela, I hope that you are OK after Irene ripped through your area. If your package didn't make it or if it arrived as a big mess, or if it was damaged in the storm, please let me know and I will make you another package, OK? Hoping that it made it through before the storm and most of all hoping you are all right and were spared the havoc from the storm.

Hi Tracy,
I got your WONDERFUL package last night. You filled that box with the most wonderful things !I think the dishcloths are the cutest thing ever and I love all things chicken and rooster so the recipe cards and coupon organizer are perfect. The apple applique is cute too.
Thanks so much for the wonderful package.

My dishcloth partner sent me a lovely package, it contained a gorgeous red dishcloth and an Apple Cozy! I was going to make one of those, too, how funny is that? I love my package and want to express my sincere thanks to Farmallgrl Angela!
