Amberly,
Yes it did, I went out of town the night it arrived and just got back last night. It was wonderful! Thank you very much. And my husband snagged the chocolate before I even had a chance to unpack my suitcase :) I believe he mailed yours while I was gone, so you should be getting it any day.

Carrie - Received your package last Friday! What an awesome treat to come home to after a stressful week. (car accident, darn it!)
Anyway, the treasures you sent are just wonderful and I am enjoying the wonderful soap daily! The dishcloth, stuffed snowman, "dressed" candy bar, and homemade card are SOOOOO great.
Thank you for your thoughtfulness and creativity.

Hi Marcy,
I received your package this weekend. The dishclothes you made me were lovely! And all the goodies you enclosed, even projects to do myself. I can't wait to get started! Thank you so much for all the care you took in making a package just for me!
Your package is on its way. Let me know when it arrives....
Blessings,
Elizabeth <><

Amy, I received your package yesterday, and I am just thrilled with the dishcloth. There is a reason that pattern is so popular - it makes the most wonderful, squishy cloth imaginable! And the soup recipe book gave me an insight into why I don't make good clam chowder - I didn't realize all the "great chefs" use about a trillion calories' worth of half & half and/or cream - hahaha! Now I'm going to try and see if I can make something yummy for our cold winter nights. Thank you again for such a lovely package :) |

Diana,
I sent your package today via priority mail, since I was a day past the mailout date. I'm thinking you'll get it by Monday at the latest. I also resent my original email and, just to be sure, emailed you directly from the forum. Please let me know if you receive either or both. I'm sorry you didn't get it the first time I sent it. I'm wondering if it didn't get filtered to spam or trash or something, since I replied directly from my email account. Though really, who knows with all the emails we all get every day. I hope you are doing well and receive your package soon.

Please email it to me, so I can mail it out this weekend.
Thanks

I love the dishcloth and the little extra surprise. My cup fits on it perfect. Although I definitely don't want to get it dirty. (no spills allowed. I like the corrugated yarn. It makes a terrific pattern.
Thank you for being my partner in this swap.

Diana, I had a slow, tired, spacey day of pregnancy and did not make it to the post office. No excuse, I know.  However, I have your package all signed, sealed, and ready to go first thing in the morning. I am sorry I didn't get it mailed out today.

Winnie:
Thank you for my package! I loved all the great items. I hope to post pictures too. I just got back into town. I went to a knitting retreat over the weekend, left on Friday and have been busy doing laundry and catching up on sleep. I tend to stay up late and get up early on retreats. Boy am I tired when I get home but I've usually had a great time!
I'm glad you enjoyed your package!
Hugs,
