Hello Ladies,
It is time to get those fat quarters in the mail. I haven't heard from 3 of you. Please let me know if you have mailed them yet. Just a friendly reminder anything that comes in the mail next Thursday will be sent back because I am swapping out that day in the AM.
I look forward to hearing from you.
Hugs,
Elizabeth

Aunt Jenny and Allison, I would love to swap with you if it comes up again. I also just posted a New Topic that I would like to swap 6" quilt squares with anyone who is interested. I do not know if anyone is doing this right now or not. Also, daffodil dreamer if you are wanting to exchange anything from Australia, I would love to get a hold of some Australian fabrics. I lived in QLD for a bit more than a year and I am missing it so much.

Hi Elizabeth! One of my daughters was so excited when she realized the package in the mailbox was my share of the fat quarters that she opened them before I could! You did a great job and I do appreciate all the work you put into it. Thank you! Love and hugs, Susan

Hi Elizabeth:

I got my FQs today. Thanks for putting that together for us. I am thrilled with them and am thinking about making a project with those alone so I will remember how I got them.

Love,
Sheryl-lyn

Well, this was a blue ribbon day! I received three valentines from the exchange AND my packet of fat quarters! Thank you, Elizabeth, for coordinating this swap - I'm sure it was a lot of work. The fabrics are very tempting....do I cook, or do I sew??

I'm heading south for the winter. Some parts of my body already have a head start!
candismom Posted - Jan 30 2007 : 07:30:31 AM
They are all here and I am going to swap out today. Thanks to everyone. However please shoot me if I ever post another swap. LOL After the the time swap I am done hosting swaps here.Hosting swaps is the hardest job I have ever done. I think evevryone should do it just one time.
Hugs,
Elizabeth
Nicie Posted - Jan 29 2007 : 7:35:40 PM
Just checking to see if mine got there.

Elizabeth- Glad they got there in time! I sent you an email regarding the postage and particulars, just let me know and it will go out tomorrow. Thanks again for coordinating!

with a happy heart
candismom Posted - Jan 29 2007 : 6:40:33 PM
Bramble I got your package today but there was no return postage in there. Please send me an enveolpe with your postage on it.
Hugs,
Elizabeth
bramble Posted - Jan 29 2007 : 3:45:52 PM
Jayne- I have a package long overdue to you so fear not. I will swap with you then if that's ok?

with a happy heart

Hi Elizabeth,
No, that is absolutely fine - I am sorry that it took me so long to get organised. I wanted to check with you as I knew you were running to a fine schedule and I really didn't want to put you out. Thanks for all the organising you have been doing with so many swaps.
Best wishes,
Jayne
candismom Posted - Jan 28 2007 : 7:34:53 PM
hI Jayne,
I am so sorry. I think it would be best to send them to the ladies through the Roak list. I really want to get this swap out in the mail. I work on limited energy due to illness so I have to stay on schedule.I have other commitments so I can't put this swap off a couple weeks.
Hugs,
Elizabeth
daffodil dreamer Posted - Jan 28 2007 : 6:42:21 PM
Hi Elizabeth,
My last fat quarters only arrived in the mail today - sorry!! If I send them tomorrow, then they will get there in ten days (about 8th February). Is that too late? I don't want to hold everyone up, so let me know if you would rather I drop out of the swap. I can give them to farmgirls via the RAOK list instead, if it will hold this swap up too long. Let me know.
Thanks, Elizabeth,
Best wishes,
Jayne

Thanks sunshine & bramble. I guess I do have a lot more to learn than I thought I did about fabrics. I wanted to just jump right in. My family was not a crafty one & I never learned any of those types of things. I did take home-ec in school & did sew a few things....but that was a long ways back. It is so true if you don't use it you lose it! I appreciate you taking the time to explain to me!
