just include my "likes scraps" notation on the rak list.

I would love to be added to the scrap list. Also I wanted to say a big Thank You to Quilty-Louise for my very first RAK I was very excited to receive it. THANK YOU

I'm glad you liked it.

Just a little something to say hi was all :D.

Your choice, Louise. You're the one who has to do "all the hard work." And, BTW, thank you for doing it!

See, this is where I mess up........now walk-n-roll is loving scraps, so you know I won't get anymore there. First it was selvages (used to get hers), now scraps. Same story with Sheila-in Erie. What's next? Back to digging in the wastebaskets at weekend sew, I guess!

Nancy in Loiusiana posted on the SP thread that we should keep swap related postings in black, and use colors for chatting. That might be good for here, too. Black for 'thank-you's' and color for chatting.

more rules?? can't we all just have fun!!:confused:

That would be great :thumbup:..How ever it is easier on you..Diana

Did you add me?

I have been RAK'ed

Krystyna Krystyna Krystyna... THANK YOU THANK YOU THANK YOU!
You made my day I love the camo fabric it is perfect for my GD quilt.
And I really needed some new reading Love the quilt books ( you read my mind I was looking for the oct issue of american quilting.)
Bless you my friend, Wanda

thank you Krystyna.

Sewelle, you probably have the list from Louise so just look it over and when you have something you want to send out as a surprise - just do it. You can be anonymous or reveal yourself. Your choice!

You are most welcome, Wanda!

I've been RAK'd by Krystyna! Ain't it just beautiful?! Nice quilts inside there! Thank you K!!!

You weren't supposed to know it was from me!!!! But ... enjoy!

I was just RAK'ED by a very wonderful lady!!! Thank you so much..She sent me 2 beautiful quilt magazines with lots of inspiration in them..Thank you again so much :)..You have really made my day..Going to go sit on my porch, grab a cup of coffee and admire the beautiful quilts and everything in them..Diana

Don't tell me it's nice enough out to sit on the porch! I am soooo jealous!

We are in the 70's here with lots of sunshine :)..If I did not know better..I would say spring has sprung here..Lets just hope my flowers and trees do not get confused..Diana

Well gee Krystyna, next time don't put your address label on it#1.... and #2 there is always the PO stamp that shows where it's from! :D

I received my first RAK today, too! Words cannot express my delight in receiving the New York Beauty Quilt Books that arrived in today's mail from Krystyna. As I noted in my Thank You PM to her, I have been in a winter quilting slump lately, ...but not anymore! This is the inspiration I needed! Thank you so very much Krystyna! I sincerely appreciate your Random Act of Kindness!

p.s. I will keep my eyes open for cloth tape measures and I will begin gathering our clothing tags for you (My DH hates those little tags on the back of his shirts!)

~ And I also have Scraps galore so look forward to receiving the list of those wanting scraps!

Do not have any old cloth tape measures but I sure do have a LOT of tags that I can send :thumbup:..Diana

Here is a very tardy posting of photos of special RAKs I received.

Love them! Thank you!

Modeenie, I hope you have fun with it. The process is so incredibly easy that even *I* can do it!

For you all that want scraps, are we talking crumbs too? I just through everything into a big basket don't really sort it out by size....

you will all have to post pics of what you're making with scraps and Krystyna can't wait to see the little tape measure purse..sounds very cute!!

Here's a note I'm throwing at all RAKer's.....if you are tearing your clothes apart for parts, I would love to have the buttons off of them as I collect buttons. That is, if you want to get rid of them I'll be happy to give them a new home!:thumbup:

did not know what a RAK was either... love the idea are there any new swaps going on now ?

Thanks for the magazines Krystyna..they just arrived:thumbup:

I had no idea about this RAK business, but it sounds great. I appreciate all of you girls.

K, I said if they're tearing their clothes up for PARTS I would want the buttons. Usually when I tear up my old clothes, I trash them, the others that I don't tear up is given to good will.

Annie, send a PM to Quilty Louise. She is organizing this RAK

They are not from me. They are from a secret RAKer!!!!! Someone who swiped my return address labels!!! Bad RAKer!

Maybe Melissa swiped the labels!
