    I have seen some thank yous in other places, I hope they can remember to post here so we know. I also think it is IMPORTANT to include your board name so people can send you a PM, I always do but sometimes it is quite a search to find out who it was if the board name is not included. I made address labels with my board name on then it is so helpful. I have been burned but not often and I keep swapping, I enjoy the sending almost as much as the receiving. But it sure is nice to get an acknowledgment.

    I like to know that what I sent was well-received. I don't like sending things off in the mail and then never hearing something again. It really burns me out.

    It would be nice for us all to be able to see who has sent and who has received. That way, even if the thank you message was posted to another thread or even PMed, we would be able to see that this swap was kept up. I believe in accountability.

    I received my Swap exchange yesterday (Saturday). I don't know the name she goes by only on her return address she put Connie Spohn from Illinois. I want to let her know I did receive her package and I love everything you sent me. I got a retractable tape measure, two packages of novelity buttons, a package of cloth markers and travel sewing kit. I can't take a picture to show everyone...sorry. I do hope I got your last name right.

    The US Postal Service delivery confirmation isn't as perfect as tracking packages every hour BUT I knew the minute my package was delivered. It does not show exact address of delivery so I guess we are to assume it is the correct one (I have found there have been misdeliveries with every "flavor" of package delivery so nothing is foolproof). There is no signature required for confirmation although you can do a signature required if you want.

    I haven't received my SP as of yet, but I am a patient person, so whenever is good with me. But the husband is tired of hearing "anything in the mail for me?"

    My mail goes to work, so they're equally as sick of me. I even ring on my days off. My excuse is I live so far away from the rest of you all. Oh well, maybe today, or tomorrow, or whenever.
    And no, I'm ususally not this patient.

    Well I hope everyone gets their packages very soon or a note explaining if there was a problem that came up! The waiting can be fun at first but it gets old and frustrating.
    Talk to ya'll later!

    I received my package from Liz on saturday and I'm thrilled. She sent me one of my fav candies...Red Vines and a big pile of 4" and 5" squares perfect for an I-spy quilt. So I now have a new project to start!!

    Thanks again to my secret pal

    Thank you Karolewak. I loved the quilting panel and the bag pattern. I also liked your note, the big red button and the package of Quiknotes.
