I had to show my mother inlaw all the great stuff I got. I told her about the swap and she was excited to see everything too. Thank you so much again Anne *hugs* wanted to pm you to say thanks too but you didn't say what your screen name was :)

Hi Cindy, I'm so glad you received your "squishy". The strip scraps that were in the package with the crumble block are for you so that you might want to attempt a companion crumble for the one I made you. I'm also happy you like what I sent. My board name is Honchey. My grandmother gave me the nickname and It stuck to me like glue. I very rarely answer to my given name. Happy Quilting :P :P :P . Annr

I got ditched for July & have not received anything for August. No, I don't want a substitute. Everyone here is 99% generous. Just don't sign up if you aren't going to come through. Of course, emergencies occur, etc. A simple IOU would be fine in that case! Looking forward to September!

I agree with dotty if you can't make the swap let us know. It's a fun deal when it works. lots of people are still just now recieving swaps. So I am trying to be patient,I also have not recieved mine. maybe today? I enjoyed sending out my swap and my secret pal was kind enough to post a message that she recieved it. hope we all get out swaps soon Mary

I still haven't received mine either. I'm sure most of us are procrastinators and didn't mail them out til the deadline. I'm not going to worry about it until October :-D :-D

I think it is simply not fair if we sign up and don't send. As Soon as I sign up I start looking for things to include in my package. I try to get it out early. It is just polite to let the sender know you have received your package too. Send an E mail if for some reason you can't send on time. Even an e mail won't spoil the surprise in the package!! I sure hope everyone gets their goodies, This is so much fun!!

It is true that keeping in touch with your partner is essential when doing a swap. And agreeing on a time (if possible). Sometimes life just throws curves and things get thrown off schedule. Just be curtious and let the other know what is happening.
