I did sent her out 16 more yesterday by 2day priority mail and sent her the tracking number. I must have lost my mind that day----not only do I know we trade 5 fat quarters, so I don't know where the 2 or 4 came from....but I also don't know why I wasn't thinking in terms of sets. OK....maybe this isn't really a funny story....but it does say what a gracious, considerate soul Jamie is! Thanks for being so understanding, Jamie!

    Blessings....
    I totally get why you thought only 4 fqs..maybe we have "shared fq hysteria senior moments"..lol!
    I am sure Jamie totally understood, too..since you sent the others out to her no harm done.. I always tell on myself for my "goofs", my quilting group friends say it made them feel better when I joined the group and have been so honest about my um, "loony tooniness"...
    Regards,

    I heard from Brenda that my second set of 30s will be coming as an "angel" package. I have no idea what that means, but I assume whoever had my name didn't participate. Does anyone know what happens? I don't want Brenda to have to send a set for the person who failed to fulfill their commitment. It won't keep me from signing up for next months swap, I guess I would like to know what happens to the person who didn't keep to their agreement to swap.

    I received my swap of FQ's from Auntpiggylpn yesterday. Such beautiful fabric and she is so generous! She sent me 5 beautiful FQ's, all new to me and a half yard of another beautiful 30's fabric. Then along with everything else she included a personalized coffee cup wrap!
    Now I just have to learn how to post pictures! Thank you so much Ruth!

    Well, I'm so glad this set reached its destination! I hope the other set found a home with a quilter who's name begins with "P" !!!!

    Could we please see a picture of the personalized coffee cup wrap? It sounds like something I would love to make. Thanks for considering this.
