Marilyn, Thank you so much for all of my gifts. The gifts you gave me are awesome and so like me. Love it all. Colors in the handmade scarf are my favorite colors. Love the bright and cheery apron and the quilting book is so great. How did you know that I love making quilts. The placemats are so cute. Thanks again. Love it all.

Oh my Theresa,
What lovely gifts you sent to me. I love them all.

These are to put under bowls that go into the microwave. When the food is heated, you can take the bowls out and the holders keep your hands from getting burned.


A coaster, meal planner booklet,more coasters and the little pantaloons become two washcloths when the ribbons are removed.

Therese, I love aprons. Wear them each time I cook. You really did a beautiful job on this. So cold here today. Decided to make seafood gumbo tonight.

Thanks again and lots of hugs to you.

Patsy, So glad you like everything. I really enjoyed making them. I too love to wear aprons. Wear them all the time. Would never think of using anything but hand knit dishcloths. They are so easy to take with you and you always have something to work on. When they get to nasty looking for the kitchen, my DH uses them in the garage.

Hugs, Theresa

Here is a picture of all the lovely goodies I received from Shannon. I feel so blessed! I love all sorts of tea and there is nothing better to battle the chill creeping into NY! And the MOOSE! Be still my heart! Your package was mailed today and should arrive Monday, Shannon. I am sorry and embarrassed I got behind this week, but I hope you will think it was worth the wait!

The picture doesn't show it well but I wanted to share that the one jar is the most wonder smelling peace and calming coconut oil lotion and the other is lovely bath salts. Again, Shannon, thank you! You couldn't have chosen better if we had been life long friends!

Oh Bonnie! I am so pleased that you enjoyed your box! I had great fun making the one moose and finding the other, not to mention making the lotion and salts! As for "running behind," I am almost ALWAYS running behind! No worries at all!

Theresa,
I mailed your package today. You should receive it by Wednesday. I forgot to tell you in my letter how much I appreciate all my farm girl sisters. I worked for thirty-one years in an elementary school with lots of lady friends. When I retired to the ranch there was not much female companionship except mama cows. I love the interaction and female chatter on this site.
Hugs,


Patsy

Julie -

WOWWIEEEEEEEEEE! (I doubt that is spelled right? if it is even a word?) I received my Thankful for Farmgirl Friend Swap box from Julie and I almost couldn't get everything in the picture! I love, love love everything - 3 pkgs of hot chocolate, Hazelnut Coffee, homemade vanilla, Buffalo Berry Syrup, two rolls of decorative tape, a bag of old white buttons (did you rip them off all your husband's shirts?), an embroidered tea towel, a crocheted "acorn" dishcloth, Burt's Bees Eye Cream and Lip Shimmer, some Lindt Lindor chocolates, a Recipes for Thanks cookbook, a small bag of smoothed glass chips, a needlepiont turkey refrigerator magnet, and a very handsome Tom Turkey, complete with pilgrim hat (wonder who he stole that from?), and a Pumpkin Vanilla Cream scent pumpkin for the car or house. WOW! I am speechless - thank you, thank you, thank you, Julie!I'm afraid I can't thank you enough! Perfect for my tastes and interests. Everything adds so much to my Thanksgiving decorations! Oh, and a beautiful card with an antique Thanksgiving picture on the front.




Farmgirl hugs,

Oh Dear Sweet Bonnie! You spoiled me to the utmost! It was like we have been dear friends for years! The sewing items are wonderful! The apron you found is just lovely! The washcloth is really nice. But the prayer shawl! Oh my word! Bonnie it is absolutely lovely! Thank you so very very much!

Patsy, Your package arrived last night. Well, actually, yesterday afternoon, but I didn't get home until last night. I LOVE LOVE LOVE everything. The candle ring is lovely. You did such a nice job on it. And the candle goes well with everything in my home. I've never owed a battery powered candle. Am looking forward to using it for Thanksgiving. The cookie cutters are AWESOME... how did you know I've been searching for cookie cutters!!! I can really use the bobbin holder. Very nice. It will certainly come in handy. Again, it is like you have known me forever. All I use is homemade soap. I haven't made any myself for years but always buy homemade everywhere I go! Thank You Thank You. I love the magnet too! I use them everywhere. It is already on the inside of the back door where DH and I leave notes when we are passing ships in the night! I still can't get over that the material I used for your bowl cozies had the flour sacks on it from the plant right down the road from you. It is so neat to see the plant. Thank you for going out of your way to take a photo for me.

This has been such a fun swap! I am truly thankful for all my farmgirl sisters!

Michelle, I have not received your box. It seems like it should have been here by now. Did you do tracking?

Also, did you receive mine?

It got mine Portia and loved it all. The kids clamed the candy as soon as the box was opened. I will check the tracking and let you know

Theresa,
I am so glad you liked everything. I had fun getting the package all together. Sorry I was a little late.
I always use battery operated candles. They are so much safer. I have lots of the candles glowing when I have company. I don' have to worry if children knocks one over.
Thanks Winnie for hosting this swap. It was a winner.
Hugs,

Patsy

Everything was just perfect and I love it all.
