*squeee*
I got home from work to find my Secret Pal box waiting for me. Oh boy, it was heavy too! I got right into opening it up and lo and behold, the first thing I see is some hot guy on a book cover and the chocolate. (Ok, the chocolate didn't make it in the pictures, because I'm enjoying those Reeses as they were getting kinda warm) Ahem. lol
Thank YOU MDM Panther for the beautiful fabric, that must go with the Paper Piecing pattern. Hehe. Not one, but TWO magazines, I can't wait till morning coffee where I can sit and enjoy looking them over. I also needed those blades for my cutter, after all these Boomerang blocks it is starting to get dull. Note cards, note pad, and a nice spool of thread. I just starting using one of these and they rock, I'm so glad you read my mind. Grey is a perfect color for neutrality also. :)
Also thank you for the wonderful note. I hope you have a wonderful Summer too!

Thank you Thank you Thank you I love it all and I really hope that we can meet someday--sure would be fun to have a Pacific NW group get together--let me know if anyone is interested.

Well, Diana, it was you. But I couldn't let you know that it was. I am glad you liked everything I sent.
Now this sounds like me ...from the name to the state with 2 words in it
:D :thumbup:

I shouldn't have signed up this month. I forgot I was going to Bentonville, AR on a trip to Wal-Mart HO. When I returned (in addition to my work schedule) I had to edit, crop, name and print 500 pictures from the 740 I took. I apologize for the last minute mailing. I couldn't contact her to let her know it was on its way. I hope my SP will forgive me. Had too much on my plate this month LOL.

I received my SP package yesterday. What a great job Chereth did on her first package. She sent a poodle appliqué piece, a small package of Kleenex in a log cabin package, a package of quilting machine needles, a spool of purple (my favorite color) metallic thread and the cutest panel "Cherish Nature". I have some great fabrics I can use with this panel. She sent a cute note with the package. I will be able to use everything she sent. Thanks again Cheryl.
Very nice secret pal package from Chereth

For those of you that have sent packages to Canada. We still are on postal strike.
So if my Secret Pal out there that has sent me something and wondering if I have received it yet or not. :( I haven't ... but sure it is waiting for me when the mail resumes.

I've attached a couple of pics, but Bug, my fur baby, thinks everything is his and won't stay out of the picture!
Thank you so-------------- much! You made my day and month!!!

I had to giggle when reading what you received and looking at the picture. Before I finished reading, all I could think is wow she got a cat in her package....rofl. Sorry a little sleep deprived.

This is just a thought..but..for those who live in Canada..you can still be in the swap. The person who has your name could email you a gift certificate to use later! I am game for that!
I have so enjoyed June's swap. Everyone has received such great packages. The package I received was fabulous.
Peace and blessings,
