Hi girls! Everything is packed up, postage has been printed and all ready to go... Couldn't get to the Post Office this afternoon before it closed, but will be there tomorrow! :) - Nini

Emily - I'm SURE they will be wonderful... I feel bad because I didn't send candy in mine!
Kelly - don't feel bad... I had to email the girls because I am the worst sewer in the world, and my stocking was looking pretty sad. I resolved to fall back on my love of papercrafting and did a Valentines Day paper pocket of sorts instead. Everyone I've shown loves it and insists it won't disappoint, but I'm not sure it's up to par with the beautiful stockings whose glimpses we've seen in sneak peeks!
Girls, I just figure if it's made with love and good old-fashioned farmgirl spirit, you can't go wrong, right?! :)
Hugs to all - Nini

Nini, It will be just fine! I didn't make a stocking either, I made a Valentine tote bag instead. It's defenitely th spirit behind it that counts. =) So excited to see all these treasures! -emily-

Peggy,
Our swap has not finished yet. Deadline is not until Feb. 4th. I have posted sneak peeks for the girls on page 1, but we are waiting on a few more packages to arrive before Ashley and I seperate and return to the girls. Soooo, the girls actually do not know what they are getting at this point. EEEKKKK! All we can say is A.N.T.I.C.I.P.A.T.I.O.N.!!!!!
We will post pics after we know all girls have received theirs.
Have a good day!

Hey girls, I did get the address, and I mailed the package a few days ago Priority. you should get it soon, /my Post Master wouldn't print return postage, so I enclosed cash, It should be enough if you send mine back in the same box. Thanks,

My goodies arrived today. Oh my gosh! Took me awhile to see it all but well worth the effort. Such fun this is. Maybe not everyone has gotten theirs yet so I won't make any comments on that but I have many things to enjoy.
Cathy P-I received the pink valentine's bag you made, very nice and so cute. Thank you.

We are so glad you are receiving your packages. Please remember, as stated on page one, delivery times vary, but per the post office you all will receive yours on or before Valentine's Day.
We want to thank you all again for joining us in this swap.
We will post pictures after Feb. 14, that way we won't spoil any surprises.
Have a good day!

| Futters, thanks for the tracking info and, yipee, the package from you arrived as I was off to work, so I'll open it tonight. You spent alot more on postage than the $4.00 requested. You've done soooo much work sorting, packaging & resending, it's not at all fair that it cost you monetarily as well - w/ 12 of us that really adds up! I'll send you the difference. I appreciate you! |

I got my package today....Thank you Nini for the big heart shaped bag! It's so pretty and old-fashioned. Reminds me of the little pouches we used to hang on the wall in grade school to collect our classmates' valentines. Fun times! I'm going to wait a few more days to open my bags of goodies when my niece and nephew come to visit for Spring break. We are planning to have a belated "Valentines Day" tea party on Friday so this will come in handy for making invitations and decorations.
Michele and Ashley - thanks again for hosting this swap. I am sending more postage, too.
Cheers! ~ Marilyn

I got my package today, and all I can say is WOWZY! WOWZY!LOL!
I love everything. Kelly, I received your bag, I love, love. love it!
Ladies thank you for all the little goodies. I really have received some very unique items. Opening all of the little bags of goodies, made me feel like a child at Christmas. What a wonderful feeling!
Thank you to everyone! I won't be too specific here so as not to ruin the surprise for anyone not yet having received their package.
My Farm Sisters are the Greatest!
Hugs to all!

I had been saving a nice covered journal (6" x 6") that I made in a craft class. I am using it for the goodies that I received in this swap along with names.
