Oh boy!! Am I ever ready for it. I just completed a major do-over on my studio and have enough "stuff" to actually fill a whole box. LOL. What doesn't go in this box will go to a sewing/crafting niece and/or the local thrift shop. Can't wait . . .

Woo Hoo!!I got a great Memorial Dayi present -- the 12th Traveling Craft Box. Snagged some fun rubberstamps and ephemera and other goodies. Now to fill it back up and get it on its way. I think the Post Office will be closed on Monday for the holiday. So it won't be on its way to Marie until Tuesday. I just happened to have a new large priority box on hand which has been repacked and it just waiting for my additions. This has been such a fun swap. Thank you so much LauraBell for hosting it.
Farmgirl hugs,
jean

The stars must have been perfectly aligned because the 11th Traveling Craft Box returned home to me and the new 12th Box arrived within days of each other. And, that crafty niece showed up for a farm visit, so we raided both boxes together having way too much fun. I gleaned soooooo much cool stuff -- especially paper crafting supplies and oh my stars -- a huge, huge thank you to whoever put in the Machine Embroidery Event CD. It is worth it's weight in gold and I can't wait to try some of the great projects on it. After raiding both boxes, I simply combined the remains of both into one box and added a few orphan tidbits that were lurking in my "Save for Traveling Craft Boxes" stash. Anywho, No. 12 is on its way to Marie. Tracking number is 9114902200789185619893. And, I'm ready for lucky thirteen.
Farmgirl hugs,
jean

Oh I am so glad our boxes ‘collided’ in their journeys. Sounds like we could get a 13th box started. I will get a post up in the next day or two.
If someone else would like to be the box originator - meaning that the end box is yours - let me know. We can certainly rotate the starting point.

Hello crafty gals . . . Here's an update on the wandering 12th Traveling Craft Box. It left Deary, Idaho on June 10 and spent two days in Spokane. Then it meandered over to Kent, Washington its last known resting spot. I received a tracking notice this morning telling me it would be arriving late but no indication as to where it was actually located at the moment. Let's all keep our fingers crossed and hope the USPS Guardian Angels are looking after it and will get it to Marie soon.

LMAO -- Just for fun (and to avoid housework) I looked up the tracking number to see how the box journey was proceeding. Fortunately it was apparently delivered.

Yes, I have received it. I can't open it until sometime on Monday. I've worked 5 zombie shifts in a row and tonight is my last one for a week. Please forgive me. My whole life is out of whack.

Marie -- Get some sleep! The box will not melt.
I just thought it's travels were interesting. From Deary to Washington, back to Deary, then on it's journey to you. The post office could sure have eliminated a couple of trips. No wonder they are having problems. What they need is a good dose of common sense.

I sent the box out two days ago to Darlene (BlessedinColorado). The tracking number is 9505515426811174597601 and should arrive on June 28th.
I found a few things I wanted.
Of course I just had to have the yarn and the shawl pattern. These will be used together. Look for some shirts made out of the swap fabric in the future. The Sparkler quilt instructions are a variation on the log cabin square which also may contain some swap fabric. I grew up using Aunt Martha's iron on embroidery patterns. I just couldn't resist. I loved the little dolls in the box and couldn't take them because I didn't know how to use them. They are very pretty. I added some patterns, a kit and a few small things.

Yay! Looks like you found some treasures in our box.
I've posted the 13th box - sign ups are a little slow but it's summertime and we might all be staying cool and spending some relaxing time in our gardens and with our family.
Have a great weekend everyone!

I can't believe it -- the post office actually delivered something early! The box was waiting for me on the front porch this morning. My faith in mankind is being restored...
I found treasure. I also found a couple of items I had put in the previous box so I removed them to my Goodwill box to make room to put newer things in. I'll get it off on its journey probably Tuesday.

Good morning - and good news!
I do still love our post office :) looking forward to our 13th box - I have extended our dates a bit due to summer activities. Just two spots left.
Hope y’all have a great weekend,
Laura
