I'm so sorry, I never meant to make it confusing. I was just using the format I've seen on several other swaps around these parts.
Does anyone need help determining their recipient?

Marjean,
Your package is ready to go and I will mail it tomorrow August 26. It may take a while to get across the country. barnagainkristin

Debra,
It's a Michael Miller fabric called "Home Ec" I believe. I bought several yards off ebay because, I too, loved it!

I got my bag from Karla Kay. She also put a special surprise in it for me! It's purple on the outside and nice and big! I love it.

Theresa,
Wow, I'm impressed and can't wait for the mail. They are both beautiful. I am such a plain jane and love to blend in but the home- ec fabric is too cute to pass up. Lately I have been loving red and bright colors so I must say I would love to have the retro bright bag. How fortunate I am. Thanks for letting me choose. Do you sell your bags?
Happy Day! barnagainkristin

Kris,
Ok, will have the Home Ec bag in the mail by Friday at the latest. I've been toying around with different pattern ideas for a while, but now I've finally settled up a style that I like the most. I probably will list some in my etsy shop when I get more done. The Home Ec bags (I made 3) came out really cute, although they are not my decided upon pattern. I know lots of people want their bags to fold up into there own pocket, which the Home Ec's do.
This has been lots of fun!

Yours is on it's way. Of course, now that I saw the ones you made- I really like the style, I am hoping you like yours.... made a totally different style!

Angie,
Can't wait to get it!!! I'm certain to adore it!
We may all have to make this a quarterly thing or something. It's fun to me to think of having an eclectic mix of reusable bags for my own use. That way every bag will have a story, an origin, a history, and will bring to mind a Farmgirl who cared.
Ok, perhaps it's late and I'm getting a bit overemotional about grocery bags.

I'll be sending mine of this Saturday, to Angie/EmsMommy5
I think it turned out cute, hope she does too, lol.
And I also think it would be nice to do this more often.
Hugs from Marian/Dutchy, a farmgirl from the Netherlands :)

Angie (emsmommy5),
I received my bag (and extra goodies!) today! Thank you so much! I quite love it! I love that the front of the bag is pieced and almost quiltlike. I am so happy to add your bag as first into my Farmgirl Reusable Grocery Bag Collection. I appreciate the effort you put into the bag and I will forever make sure it has a useful life!
Thanks again!

Heather,
I am slowly but surely getting your bag made. I have been having crazy machine troubles, finally had to borrow one. Hopefully it will arrive today.

Marian, your bag is ready and will me mailed tomorrow. After reading about your last post about having to pay extra money to the customs, I didn't add anything to the packet.
Hope you like it. We have no idea how long it is going to take because it is ramadan now and things are definitively slowing down in this part of the world.
