I am so glad you like the items. I sometimes wonder if I am sending out items that will be appreciated by someone. Everyones taste is different. I just send out what I would like to receive. Although I haven't received my package, I am not worried. It just gives me all the more time to anticipate its arrival. Had to include your little doggie family. Enjoy.

A private message is good for me. If you want to send a snail mail card, that's ok too. My pal received her package yesterday and not a peep out of her yet. I know I would want what I sent but it doesn't worry my mind because she may be with out electric, out of town, etc, etc.

I thought my secret pal would have it yesterday or today. UGH!!! I sure hope it has not disappeared into the black hole of lost mail. : (

Zappycat what state did you mail to? I am asking because the zip code was wrong on the box I received today! There is no return address on box either.

I found out that my secret pal is Wilma A and I got a wonderful, awesome package from her today! All the way from SC to me here in Iowa. She made the cutest pin cushion and tread catcher that is already beside my machine. I really needed that as I always have threads on me lol. Also a pattern that will make 3 different sizes of totes/purses. A yummy bag of Hersey kisses, post it notes, tiny tiny hair ties for bobbins, must know that mine go rolling across the floor when I drop them! And a set of 6 circle templates that I have been wanting for a while. I forgot to mention appliqued towel and word search book. Thank you thank you everything is wonderful!

I need to check out my package. And if it's any consequence, I'm still waiting on mine but the due date for mailing is Monday.

We can always start warming up the bench while we wait for our packages to be sent on the 14th! At least we'll keep each other company and there may be others to join us. The packages have really been great this month (as usual) so my anticipation is growing.
