Has this happened to you. Some nice board member responds to your request for something or a swap and sends you a package. When you receive it, their board name is not included. This has happened to me recently. Since the board name is more times than not a nickname and they don't always show their city and state, it makes it difficult (for me at least) to match up the package received to a PM. Wish everyone would include their PM name so they can be identified and properly thanked. I usually figure it out by going thru all my PM but that takes a while. Anyone else have this problem or is it just me being dumb?

No, you are not being dumb! I just never thought of it. However, I do have a package ready to send out and I wrote my Quilting Board name on the outside of the package. Great call!

Sometimes it is by mistake that they don't include that info, sometimes it is on purpose :wink: We have a LOT of angels here who like to help out , but want nothing more then to know that they have helped out a fellow quilter :thumbup:
You could just post I received a squishy and what was in it with a Thank You :lol:

I have been having the same problem!
but with payment for items
I have several different charm packs for sale
and got a few checks in the mail today
with notes in the memo section that say charms or fabric
have been reading all my PM trying to sort them out
very difficult!

I understand needing the info for payment, but just maybe when someone sends out something they want to pass on a blessing and remain anonymous. I have been known to do that and have even asked the postal person to obscure my stamp location. Sometimes we don't need to be known. 8-)

Never thought about that. Guess my mom's words always ring in my head, "Always write a thank you note." I'll rethink that idea now and just hope I never disappoint someone by not acknowledging a nice gift. (Glad to know what a squishy is) i've seen it posted but had no clue. I always called them a "sersee" So, thanks twice.
