    It's gonna be a humm dinger of a pkg so hope she likes it.

    Oh and by the way somewhere in the above is a hint about something my SP likes and thats all I'm gonna say about that..
    I know! I know! I had to go back and read it a second time but I got the hint! Rats, it's not me :(
    Must be dense this morning, I don't get it:x ,haven't finished my cup of tea yet, I should come back to read this later.
    Myrna, anyone getting any of your handmade items is a lucky one.

    Thanks.........I picked up my gift today at my LQS and think I will make something to go along with it, like everyone else, maybe a mug rug. My pal loves coffee. :thumbup:

    No, you PM LORI when you mail it and your SP doesn't know who you are until she/he receives your pkg. Be sure to enclose a note or card so your SP knows your name/boardname. :D

    It's always nice to get a swap with a card saying who it is from.At least with a screenname signed on it. That way you can thank whoever sent it with a PM and let Lori know you recieved it. Also then you can leave feedback for your pal. Most of my swaps have had a card with a few lines written to me explaining who it is from and maybe a nice little message from them. It doesn't have to be a long note or letter.I usually say who I am and maybe say why I sent a certain item. such as thanksgiving fabric in June. My pal said that was her favorite holiday. Remember you got a list of their likes and dislikes and a brief history on them.So send a note to give a little history on you.Then when you post something we kinda know a little about you. Just making new friends.These are just some hopefully helpful suggestions. Mary
