Deborah~ The mail art that you sent me wasso beautiful that I actually sat down and cried. Thank you so much for including the picture of me with my DD. The sweetenss of your mail art carried me through a few hard days after Irene.You wil never know how thankful I am for it! I have framed it and it now proudly sits on my desk at school. Adaily reminder of how "sweet" September (and you) have been to me.

Hi, I mailed my art out today :) I will keep a secret like Peggy ;) I can not believe I ended up paying $5.95 to send it. I wanted delivery confirm & was told they changed their policy & it has to be sent priority because of it being underweight :O The next time I might as well fill up a Priority,one rate box. You live & you learn. Have a nice week end all ;) LOL

Beth,
Thank you so much for the beautiful apple mail art! September is always "apple month" for me, too. I love it!
Sadly, the glass did not survive the trip in the mail, even though you packed it carefully AND had it labelled very clearly FRAGILE ... apparently someone didn't heed those warnings :( .
But, the frame, and most importantly- the beautiful stitchery are just fine. I have it up on my kitchen hutch and will try to post a photo later.
Thank you again,
Catherine

Sharon "bobbinrobin",
Thank you so much for the lovely art! It is perfect, just gorgeous. I love the plaid paper and the heading, "Into the woods". That was the name of a hiking group I led several years ago, brought back fond memories. Did you dry the leaves?.. very pretty. Sweet September poem, too - it makes me want to break out the fall decorations.
Thanks again so much and please post a photo if you took one. If not I'll mess around and see what I can do. My usb camera cord is cranky.
Blessings, staci FG# 973

P.S. My dad was one of the best orchardmen in the area raising BA-ZILLIONS of apples . . I've picked thousands!! Nope, I never fell out of an apple tree of off of a picking ladder!

This is the beautiful Fall Mail Art that I received yesterday from Madeline in PA.  The envelope was just as beautiful as the hanging, but doesn't show up as well here as it actually is. What a nice surprise at the P.O. yesterday! Thank you so much Madeline!

I am sorry I didn't get the photos rotated - I was so excited to get them on here that I never noticed I hadn't rotated them. So, ladies - you'll have to rotate your necks!
