    Well I am 513 miles away but it was 84 degrees that day and even then I was a combo of no. 1 SP and no.2 SP. LOL Am I getting desperate to figure it out? I am never good with games like this but I am having fun.

    LOL Anna....I can't figure mine out either. Either my pal isn't the chatty type, or I'm a little slow on the uptake trying to figure out the clues. No package yet, so I'm thinking it will be easier for me as everyone else posts their pictures. But to be honest, even then sometimes I get my "guess" wrong.

    All in all, it's just all fun and games. And I love seeing what others put in their packages. Gives me ideas for the next go-round!

    What was the funniest gift you've received from this swap? For me, it was an 8x10 picture of Kiefer Sutherland. I mentioned in my "bio" that he was my most wanted item, and I got a picture of him instead. Cracked me up until I had tears! I still have him! He's gracing my board in my sewing room.

    Well not from this swap but I once received a beautiful knitted, with cables, beer bottle huggie. It slips on the bottle and looks like a Scandinavian doll sweater without sleeves. I just have it sitting on a bottle as it cracks me up everytime I see it.

    that was a lovely stocking! Love it!

    Well, I can tell you I've just opened my Secret Pal's gift to me. It was Kwiltaholic. I had NO clue. As usual. LOL. But I loved what she sent. I love beachy colors and she sent a variety of greens and blues that are very pretty. And the cutest embroidered towel. Along with a scented sachel, wall hanging, note pad, tissue cover, all kinds of things.

    I don't know if you can see it or not, but she also made a yo-yo with an elephant pin on it. I plan on adding an embroidered name square to the bottom, and this will be my Guild's nametag! yay!

    Thank you so much, I loved it all!

    Now just to wait until my pal receives hers

    My SP tumrub received her package Monday, here is the photo I took of what I sent her. Her favorite colors are red white and blue which fit very well for this month. I sent a hand towel, reusable bag, candies, fabric, cat socks, patches, a hand stamped spoon, hair ties and threads.

    After revisiting the clues I think hav4boys has me as their SP. ?!
