    I want to thank Jaunty Melissa for the package I recieved today in the mail. She sent me pattern for making a swimsuit cover. Several pieces of material, some of her homemade fruit relish(My family loves stuff like that) a peach candle, a loom for sewing, some packages of lemonade and coffee, a really cute homemade pin cushion made out of blue felt and with a butterfly embr. on it, some clamps ( I don't have any of those, they will be really handy to use) some green, yellow, and white emb.r thread. some three musketers (my favorite candy), a cadbury egg (my favorite Easter candy), a packet of Constant comet tea (how did you know that is one of my favorite teas =8~) ) some bobbin thread holders, a cute little green frame. A travel eucerin lotion. I actually have been buying Eucerin lotion every time I go to the store, but I didn't have a travel size bottle of it. So thank you very much for that. She sent a snake that grows, and a puzzle of Abe Lincoln, a package of note cards, a measuring tape. two magazines and a quilt book.

    Thanks so much
    JULI

    I have taken two pictures of her package but just can't get them to download.I have tried the resizing If someone would like to try and post them for me, I would be happy to email them to you.

    Oh Sweet Krystyna ~ Along with about a dozen other people.....I have not had the privilege of having you send me a package either!!!! So I add to the chorus that you cannot quit until you've gotten my name....of course I know because I DO LOVE GLITTER you will have a lot of glitter items that you can send on to me. I draw the line at glitter teeth or braces or whatever that horrible picture was!

    I hear your 'hurt' in not having acknowledgement for your efforts. You have to know from the many responses how dearly you would be missed if this disappointing month or other months should make you leave this wonderful swap.

    I join several others here in giving you the biggest "Cyber Quilty GROUP Hugs" You are loved!

    I just received an amazing and generous package from hearthhush and I am just so happy with all of the goodies that she has sent to me!! She made me an adorable pincushion and she made me a casserole carrier in two of my favorite colors. This will be put to use without a doubt! I also received 5 beautiful pieces of fabric in shades of orange, a cute handmade coaster, self threading needles and magnet, a ruler, a magazine that I can't wait to dig into, an adorable mini scrap book, a BIG bag of Smarties and the most unique handmade decoration that I will try to describe but won't do it justice...there is a clear container and on the lid it says: Nesting notions...This hand glittered birdie took a notion to feather her nest with a collection of charming sewing supplies! Her jar contains river rocks, moss and twigs. And it's trimmed with fabric scraps, vintage thread spools and scrapbooking embellishments". There is a ribbon tied to the top of the container with the saying and inside contains all of the little tidbits that are mentioned. It is ADORABLE! Thank you again for the wonderful package and the thought that was put in to it. HUGS!![ATTACH=CONFIG]328321[/ATTACH]

    Thank you, but honestly I'm not hurt at all. I haven't made a final decision but as my signature says, "Like what you do. If you don't like it, do something else." Words of wisdom from Paul Harvey.

    And I will still be around to stalk on everyone's behalf. Where is Candi???? I sure do miss the stalker queen. It was a lot more fun around here when she was active! Of course Ms. Cupid is taking up the slack. Not to mention Havplenty who seems to have given up on sending shoes ... or has she???

Thank you for such a wonderful swap pkg!
