You guys are just the best. It brings tears to my eyes!! I will call my sister tonight and find out where to send things. I think it is probably better to send them to Diana's home and then she can take them to Frannie. I started on her quilt today but won't get it done until after the holidays. Kelly -- your gift of a quilt for her now would be wonderful! I do have enough squares because I will only be making a crib sized quilt since Frannie is so small. My sister says she sleeps on a crib size mattress that is on a low frame so it is easy for her to get in and out of bed. I just can't tell you how much this will mean to Frannie and to my sister.

The holidays have been a little busy and I owe thank you's to the following. It's funny how I like all the prints, even though they are very different from what I usually buy for myself.
sqrl (the ceramic button is great!) BlueEggBabe (Yours arrived on a very cold Saturday in December. I walked to the Post Office that day with my dog, and was warmed as soon as I saw your envelope!) FabulousFarmFemmes Junebug AnnieT Julia V.
THANKS TO ALL - I love the charms!

I am new to this and cannot quite figure out what the charm square exchange is- trading several squares, with a button or bead on each? This sounds so fun- I am pretty sure I emailed CindyLou to let her know I am interested. How often do you girls do this? Thanks and my appologies if the answer was on one of the previous pages (I did try to look) Love, Rebekka |

Anyone who is still having trouble mailing my squares, I know Kate sent an email with the correction, but add "Northway" to my street address. It was omitted on the list. Thanks Jan Pinter |

I'm long overdue to send several more of my squares out but I never did get a corrected list from Kate/Katie? nor could I download the one she sent via email...and, except for Jan Pinter, I don't know whose addresses I need to correct on my list. If any of you know your addresses were incorrect on that list, could you let me know what those corrections are, please? Thanks so much! My apologies for the delay.

Helen in NZ, I got your charms over the holiday and I want to say thanks. It's been a while since I received any, it was a nice surprise. Thanks also for the little flax sack, such a darling thing, I love it.

So, thanks again to Fab Farm Femme, Aunt Jenny, Owwlady, Meadowlark,AnnieT, Kathy L., Kelly, Carol, Kay, BlueEggBabe, bubblesnz. I can't wait to get started. You girls are the best! Warm quilt hugs to you all! Julia V.

Julia, have we swapped charm squares yet? I've sent all mine out a long time ago, but I can't find your name on my last list, so if I owe you some squares, let me know, you may have joined in after the last list was sent? Has everyone sent off their squares yet? I've probably only gotten some from half the list, so was wondering?

Junebug, I did send some to you. I came off the list after sending out squares to 29 of the farmgirls. Don't know if Kate made an update with my name deleted or not. Don't worry about sending any to me unless you really won't too.
I got the top of my charm square quilt made with the ones I have so far recieved. I like how it turned out. I have to get some fabric for the back so I can start quilting it. I am looking forward to it keeping me warm. When I should it to my DH he asked if I made it for him. He got a resounding no!

Julia, I did find the squares you send me, they were tucked in with someones elses, so if you haven't gotten any from me, then I owe you some. I didn't get a update with your name left off, so since I'm getting your seeds out tomorrow, I'll add your squares too! Maybe you can use them for a quilt for your hubby so you won't have to share yours. I hope you will show it off once it's done! Thanks again!

If anyone needs a list I can send them one as well. I haven't made any changes or sent out a new list since the 24th of Oct. When new gals have been signing up I've been slowly starting a new list so the old one doesn't get to big. Let me know if you need anything else!! Have a wonderful Day!!~Kate
Tomorrow is always fresh with no mistakes in it.....unless they are spelling mistakes. |

Thanks, Kate ~ I think I sent all mine out, but if I missed anybody on the list, please let me know. Also, is anyone interested in some fabric which I will send for postage? Some big pieces (a beautiful 2-3 yards of tan corderoy, for one) and a lot of smaller pieces I have been saving to do "something" with. Now I'm tired of looking at it all and need the space. Let me know if you want any. I'll probably post this in "sewing room" too.
Love, Patricia
Happy Wishes! |

Annie, I sure would appreciate the list you have, please. I tried to get on the other day and say "Yes, Please" when you offered, but I was having computer problems. Thanks so much...carolcourt53@earthlink.net
