Mine are already in the mail. I wasn't sure what postage would be so I sent a check for seven.
Please keep the difference to cover your time & gas.
Thanx again for putting this together, & hang in there.

Thanks for all the sage advice, ladies. For me personally, if everyone sends everything--and gets everything back--it's actually easier, otherwise I have to be sure to leave the "right" ones out for each person. I think that's what you're saying, Jess, and I totally agree! I'm not sure I can muster the skills to coordinate anything that requires too much thinking right now! If we happen to have a last minute addition to the group, I can allow for that and divide the clothespins more thoughtfully, but otherwise I think the whole she-bang is simpler. =)
Can't wait to see them all!

Kristina, I am so glad to hear from you, and so sorry that things are so busy for you. Cuts into fun time, I'm sure, from my own experience. Anyway, I really hope things settle for you. I do appreciate that you are hanging in there and moving forward with the swap. Thanks for putting me in the 36 group. I'd also like to be in on the 18 group still. That way I can have a lot of variety, and some from both sets of friends. :) Unless that's too much to deal with? If it makes it easier, I could send them in separate packages. :) Again, thanks so very very much.
We make a difference. |

I have a feeling my mail from here doesn't send or receive; is anyone interested in just emailing me the address the pins are supposed to be mailed to at oldquiltlover@hotmail.com
Kristina ~ big hugs. I'm so sorry that you're going thru this hard time.

Aunt George's box of 18 clothespins has arrived and, let me tell you, farmgirls, they are SO cute and wonderful! You are going to love them!  I'd pay good money for a complete set just like 'em. I can't wait for the next batch to arrive!
Huckelberry, I can keep you in the group for 18, too, no problem. That just means no one in the group of 18 will get their own back--they'll get 18 cool, new clothespins instead!
Wrapping up my batches this week myself--so many ideas, so little time!

I got it ladies, thanks. I'm having a little family crisis at the moment so not on top of things too good. I'll try to get these out asap. Thanks again.

Oh, Ricki, I'm so sorry to hear that--hang in there, let us know if we can help, and rest assured that we're behind you. If you need to pull back on the swap, just let us know...
Love and light to you, hon'.

More great packages at my door! Woo-hoo!
Katmom/Grace, your wonderful package arrived safe and sound yesterday with *such* wonderful goodies inside!  They are on the "swap table", waiting patiently for their new friends to arrive.
Keep 'em coming!

Kristina, I sent the package out yesterday, and the girl said it should arrive within 12 days.....I can only hope, as the last one was almost a month. I figure with the mail prices increasing, the service should be better.....LOL
I hope it gets there soon.

Oh my goodness. I am so sorry, I forgot to add the $$$ in the box. I will have to send some cash to you.
Hubby told me that this is called "sometimers".

| Kristina, my box is on its way to you. I sent two sets of 36, I made some and so did my daughter. I just could not stop her. You can figure it out however you want, I am easy. Jess |

Glad they made it....I can hardly wait to start hanging clothes on my "ergo-friendly-solar dryer" with the most cutest cloth pins.

I'm so excited to see all of the wonderful packages coming--I'll keep you all posted as they arrive.
It's looking like those of us in the bigger group will all be able to get 36 unique clothespins back (with special thanks going out to smoothiejuice's daughter! cool!).
Don't worry about the $$, EmmJay. These things have a wonderful way of working themselves out!
Thanks, all, for being a part of such a fun exercise. I, too, am eager to get my clothes strung on a line with farmgirl love.

Can someone please remind me when this is due ~ I have my pins base painted and hopefully can finish them this weekend. Sorry to be so spacey, not usually the case with me. Thanks!

Yup, Ricki, June 15th would be good--that way I can get them out to everyone in time (hopefully!) for the solstice.
Just going to do a quick accounting of the latest arrivals--will post here and at the front to let everyone know what I've got so far.
Botanical Bath, your box--including amazing and generous gifts!--arrived yesterday.  Breathtaking! These are all just so amazing! I love it!

I sure hope you do this swap again. I found this group way to late to get in on this but it sure looks fun. I love my clothesline!!!

OH, Kristina, I hope I didn't make a mistake. Eeek.
I got to visiting with the lady at the post office yesterday, sending my clothespins, and I forgot to ask her to re-tape the package.  Please let me know if/when it gets to you. If it doesn't get there soon, I'll try again. I'd hate to let anyone down on such a fun thing!
We make a difference. |
