Good morning and Happy New Year's Eve. I second Nanakathy's good wishes for the coming year! I'm so ready to see 2014 gone so tomorrow I'll be up with a smile on. Let's all have a sip of whatever your favorite beverage is tonight and toast our groups' health and good quilting!

Billi, you may have posted the pic on the original sign-up thread. I didn't think about going back there to pick up the photos but I will do so later today. I have time - I'M ALL ALONE UNTIL 5 PM! (Well, me and Gracie, the cat. Mom and Sis are at their house for the day along with their cat and dog, DH is at our cabin checking on it with our 2 dogs and I'm relaxing by housecleaning and doing laundry. Ah, good times!!! roflol.) Anyway, everyone keep the pix rolling in. I plan to mail out everyone's package on Friday, providing I get Ruthee's today.

Again, Happy New Year! Sláinte Mhath!

Here is my fabric. you will be receiving the solid teal. I am asking for white on white with it. I will be making the quilt for my DIL. I am "planning" on making one block with the teal and lavender as I make your block.

Soft and beautiful! Great choice!

Shipping today! (I'm so ready to get sewing!) Those of you who sent me cash will have already rec'd their tracking #s by email. Those who sent postage will have to wait until I can email you individually with your numbers. That will come later today. It's been an odyssey getting these ready but ready they are! Yippee!


Enjoy, Boomers!

Difergie

Excited to begin again!

oh Billi I love that fabric! its gorgeous! I mailed your funds to you also Janice hope you have received them. I blew it a second time in swapping here and sent it separate from my fabrics. what a dork! I think they might be in the mail box today? or tomorrow? or next week? my dh picks up the mail. about 3 times a week sigh. its pretty darned cold yesterday hit a high of 2 so I get it. I sure as heck am not walking on that ice to go see if there is mail. it can wait.

new years resolution: to live longer than the doctors said I would. you see I am not ready to call it quits so I will plug alone and to heck with them! I found a new doctor who is willing to try more things. this is like an ugh great thing but also what have I got to lose? that is my resolution. I am not looking for cheers or what. I am deciding right here and now.. that this is going to be a good year. Yes yes it is

Janice McC

Oh, I've been playing with the fabrics. Already have some ideas!

You rock Linda, great news on the new doctor.

janice is it easier for you if we send cash or if we send postage?

Janice McC

Thanks for asking, Terri. It's only slightly easier if you send me cash - IF the usps website is cooperating. It didn't cooperate two nights ago as I was working on it. The email updates option for most of you, maybe all of you, didn't take. Pretty darn annoying to have to do something over and over and over and it's still not right. oh, well. For those that use stamps, you should always double check your postage. One package was short so I made it up. That's the biggest problem with that, making sure there's enough postage as I don't want it returned to me. $6.10 is the current price.

But here's a hint for those of you who do a lot of swaps, you can order prepaid FOREVER padded envelopes in lots of 3. Of course, that's 18.30 up front but then you will have a record of the tracking # to start with and you just need to send one to me and if postal rates increase, you they will still be useful - just like with all Forever postage.
