Joyce - My postmistress can see a little more info than we can with the tracking number and she says it has been in Toronto. I don't know how long it takes to get from Toronto main PO to your area. I sure hope you get the envelope soon and everything is in tact. Please let me know when it arrives.

Hi Linda - that's the processing plant - it's stuck in customs right now :( Awaiting eagerly for it to be cleared!! When it does, it usually takes about 4-5 days from there to me.

Linda, just wanted you to know that I received my aprons. I have to put a lot of projects on hold for the moment, but should be able to get back to them within a few weeks once I heal from surgery.

WOW, Joyce! What is taking them so long? Is it because they came via Europe? They have been in customs 11 days!!

I'm not sure, Linda. They probably have some sort of issue with it because it went on such a side route. I'm really hoping they will clear soon. It will take about 3-4 days from clearance date to get here.

I'm so sorry the aprons have taken so long to reach you. Have you spoken with someone from your local PO? Sometimes they can get more info than we can see on line.

No, I haven't. I asked in the past, and they just said to check online, as what they see is what I see, and they don't have any other information.

Maybe they opened the package and are admiring the tiny aprons. Just kidding. Why did it go overseas anyway?

It went overseas because somehow - when it got to Chicago - it was put into the wrong bin, and so it went to Europe instead of to Toronto.

Just as we have said before, the postal service and weather people are often wrong...but nothing ever happens to them. If it were us we would probably be fired.

I got them, I got them!!!! Linda, did I send you too many aprons? I got one of my own in return, so I wanted to make sure that someone isn't missing mine :)

Joyce, that is good news. Your aprons have a story to tell about their great and very long adventure.
March 10th until April 13 th. Is that 35 days??? Crazy.

Joyce -
I'm so so glad they finally arrived! I hope they enjoyed their overseas vacation. It sure took Canadian customs a long time.
You sent just enough. You will always get one of yours back, unless you do NOT send enough. It is easier for me, when sorting, to have one for every swapper.

I don't know how many of you found MaryJane's post about our mini aprons. You can find it here on page 3 -http://www.maryjanesfarm.org/snitz/topic.asp?whichpage=3&TOPIC_ID=77798#926406 - on page 3.
I'm glad she got them and is using them to help celebrate the Jubilee this year.

I have to assume that everyone has gotten their aprons by now. Quite a few never responded that they had received their aprons. Thank you for joining in. I hope you will join one of the last 4 swaps - Animal prints, fancy, Fall, and Christmas.

Well Linda, looks like you are the "hostess with the mostest" swaps going on for the past year or so. I want you to know that I love our fabric swaps and I also love making mini aprons. Thank you so much for spending your time organizing them, giving examples, and just making every swap so much fun. Friend and farm girl hugs coming your way.
