I received my pin cushions last night. I received from neesie the flower pincushion with some adorable crocheted flower pins attached. Oh my goodness they are so cool. There is a photo already posted. Love them!!!!!!!
then, yes I got two in one day!!!!!! From carol I received an adorable owl and a really super nice fat quarter. will definitely be using this guy. He is going to be at the longarm because he can handle more pins. so wonderful!!!!!
Ok, mine are going in mail today. I know, they have been done but I just have not had a chance to get them out and I wanted to add a little something in the package so had to do that. but they will like them I am sure. No, I am not telling where because that might give it away, alright then, I live in west and they are going east across the country to two southern states, not way south, but southern, one state connects to the water and the other has the Ozarks.

Well Calla, from where I am at, my state touches the coastline so I would just waive over a few states at you. Sorry.
It was tough using the tape gun to tape up my boxes. One handed is no fun then I put the label on the wrong side of the box, then one box was the right size but was unsure of postage, then could not fit into flat rate envelope because pin cushion is to large, like them life size right? so had to go with a medium flat rate box because the website would nto calculate postage on a parcel for me or I was inept today so spent a little extra because can't make to post office anyway. This way the post lady, which is real nice to me, will have to come in office and say hello. She loves to knwo what I am sending out and receiving at the office. Now I think I am supposed to give some conf #s to mariposa, better get on that. At least I get to go quilting with a friend on Saturday to make my May DQ. This has been fun ladies.

QuilterMomma what is your May DQ? Dairy Queen cone? And I also had an adventure at the P.O. My box was here at my home, I thought it was a flat rate thingie $5.?? Looked like the size to me... .........well the box was an old box; I was told before flat rate boxes..........and therefore postage was calucated by distance and weight.........I considered changing my items for my partner to a flat rate box however, as I looked at the line behind me I decided I didn't want to wait again in line.........so I just bit on a stick and felt with the extra $$$ the P.O. made perhaps it will help them with their financial problems..............giggle.............calla
