    I sent you a PM indicating it had arrived - I just have not posted an update to the list.

    All baggies are swapped and will be in the mail. Have some nerve blocks scheduled bright and early Mon am - but is right behind PO - so hubby can drop them off while he is waiting on me. Have had a terrible time with my TN and have had some of these blocks in the past. Hope it will calm down the flare. Kids from SF will be here Thur night - looking forward to having all of the kids together again.

    Great fabrics this time - let me know if anyone runs across any problems. Tried to keep down duplicates as much as I could.

    Thank you to everyone for your participation!

    Rena

    Joanns recently had a sale on novelty fabrics, and I was able to combine the sale with a coupon, so I picked up a lot of 1/3 yard pieces to have some new stuff for the next swap.

    I love to run across good sales! I hope to get to Nashville after Christmas and get some new fabrics and some sale Christmas fabric. And our daughter will finish her degree some time this summer so she will do post-doc somewhere else - she is hoping W Coast, but could also be Boston area - a lot of research is going on in that area. So it will be hard to see her leave - but I tell her it is just a plane ride away!

    I failed to mention when I talked about the swap - someone sent me a beautiful red and white tatted Christmas ornament - I dropped it out of the bag and found it on the floor by my chair. I don't know who sent it - but thank you! It is lovely. I have tried to learn to tat several times, but I am left handed and never found anyone who could teach me how to do it the "backwards" way. I had a knitting friend who was so talented and could tat, but I just couldn't get the hang of it. I took a course at our community college, but there were so many students there was no hands on help.

    Thank you to my "Secret Angel"!

    I too am left handed so went to YouTube for help. I learned tatting with a needle but I was too impatient to complete a project of any size .... maybe some day, there's still hope.

    We lefties need to start a support group here! The maker of the wreath was Minibarn and she said she was a leftie too.

    Thank you minibarn!
