Posted - Jun 25 2018 : 1:48:00 PM Thank you! So sorry for the late reply! Been busy! I used Youtube to learn to crochet! How I wished when my Grandmother was trying to teach me that I would have stuck with it! I am on to dishrags and scrubbies. I am working on a baby blanket for my coming granddaughter in October! I don't know but two stitches. I am just single crocheting the baby blanket in pink!! It took several tries for the potholder to come out square but I was determined to get one made!! LOL! Your gift of yarn inspired me!

No worries, Debbie! I’m so glad it arrived safely and you liked it. I LOVE your potholder! I, too, and trying to learn crochet, and my attempts are nowhere near as tidy! Haha!

Posted - May 17 2018 : 4:30:34 PM I am sorry to be so late posting this. For some reason, I have been having computer problems for the last week or so, and just got that fixed but now it won’t let me post a pic. My partner, Jill, was very prompt with this swap and I wish I could show you what she sent. I got a round blue and white hand done dish cloth that I love. She also sent pretty multi striped blue and white ribbon, blue beads that I will use for a necklace, blue tape, a big blue shower scrubby and very unique blue soap, which I have already used and truly like. Thank you very much, Jill. Thank you too for the nice note you included. I love and will use everything.

Ooops the towel should have been the other way up.

Posted - May 07 2018 : 8:36:06 PM Joey, I received your wonderful package. I love it all. I have taken a picture but am having trouble uploading it from my phone. I'll post it when it behaves. The towel is so nice and soft. I love both the bandana and the fabric. What lovely colours/designs! I can always use the memo pads as I am a list maker. The magnets will also come in handy for those reminders posted on the fridge. The pin cushion is great, I've never seen a blue one before. Thank you so much for being my partner. And thanks for organizing the swap. :)

Oh Debbie! Such a wonderful box you sent me! We just bought a new house and it’s a bit of a fixer-upper, so those gloves will come in handy for all the cleaning I’m in for. And that darling spoon rest...I have salt and pepper shakers that match it! Everything will be put to excellent use, thank you so much!!!

Posted - May 02 2018 : 11:36:03 AM Kristi...yes, the bracelet is very pretty. Thank you so much...and the fact that you picked it up on a mission trip in Ecuador. Wow!!! Thoughtful and very special!! It does remind me of sea glass, for sure.
Joey...I will try to post a picture. I haven’t figured out how to do that on here, yet. (Silly, I know!). Ha! |

Posted - May 01 2018 : 9:09:51 PM I’d love to see the bracelet if you can post a picture.

Hi Kristi: Glad you received your package! Yay! can’t remember if I labeled the soap...I meant to. It is “Blueberry Soap”...that the daughter of a long-time friend of mine makes. She makes all types of homemade soap. Anyway, I hope that you will find the items I sent you useful, fun, etc.!

Posted - Apr 28 2018 : 11:47:08 AM Kristi..just letting you know that I received your delightful package today! Thank you for all the wonderful goodies! Love them! |

Posted - Apr 28 2018 : 12:01:59 AM Jill, no problem. Your package went in the mail 4/25. Mail is always a little messed up here in Florida. I have no idea how long it will take to get to Canada. I am loving the blue packages already received. March, that light is SO nice. Blueberry soap sounds delightful. Vanessa, have you heard from Ruthie? Can’t wait to see what is posted next. Joey

Posted - Apr 27 2018 : 09:37:11 AM Hi Kelly,
I am so glad that you like everything. I was so worried about the glass box getting to you in one piece, hence all of the bubble wrap! I hope all is well.
hugs, Marcy
