Oldcatlady and MizMelly- according to USPS tracking, your packages are "on track to the next facility". That was dated 12/16/18. I will look at it again tomorrow and call. I am so sorry this is happening.

Steal the idea any time. It was such an easy way to "eat" up lots of treats. When I would get tired of a bigger or frustrating quilting project but wanted to quilt or if I was off to a one day quilting gathering, I would haul this out and just sew more four patches then add a 2.5 x 5 rectangle. Press and square any that looked too wonky. I then just started sewing them together in long rows. This was an on and off for about 9 months kind of quilt. It doesn't have a home but it will be perfect for someone in the future.

WMUTeach -- That sure is a cute Teddy. Did you make it?
Barb -- My husband lost his job some time ago. I feel your pain. Yes, it's very difficult for older workers to compete in the hiring market. Maybe he might as well accept being retired early. Or, there's McDonalds... that's what my older sister accepted. And the career she's had, the salary she's earned, and the work experience in her life! It's sad.

Did I miss the post with the January Birthdays? or hasn't that been posted yet?
Next question. Is this swap going to happen again for next year? I actually will have some time off work next week and want to start cutting for next year if there is going to be another swap. This past year was so busy for me that I felt behind all year and I don't want that to happen with the next swap.

I don’t think they have been sent yet aborning. I haven’t received the names yet. Pretty sure we’ll be swapping next year again but the new thread won’t be started until after the 1st of the year

I haven’t received the January list either but I’ve been so busy I never missed it. We have two January birthdays but the first one isn’t until the 14th so there’s still lots of time. Barb will send it soon. Last I heard, Barb planned to run the swap again next year. In fact tonight I cut almost 8 full sets of candies. (I needed some quiet time and I used it wisely. 
). If not, someone will put an exchange together eventually and I’ll be all set!
Merry Christmas to those who celebrate the holiday.
