Everyone is getting and making such beautiful packages!!
I just wanted to let my sp know, the one who is sending to me, I am currently out of town. So if your tracking shows my package has been delivered and I do not say thank you, it is only because I am not there to get it. I am honestly not being rude, but when I get home I am so hoping it is there! hehehe

yeah got the picture to load, so here is a pic of my package from Cathy tumrub. It is so awesome, two cute coasters/mug rugs one with cards on it which fit in with some of the local items, she sent a chip and lanyard holder from French Lick casino, and an empty F. L wine bottle(if there were some wine still in it I'd share some with you on the bench) but there is some popcorn and lots of tea bags so I can make ice tea....some post cards of of Piola, French Lick resort, and a resort at West Baden - the atrium looks fabulous-I may have to make a trip to check it out(a paper hand towel with a rose on it from the W B resort-pretty enough to be fabric, a bookmark, some very pretty fabrics, Quilter magazine, a handmade cup sleeve, cute fabrics, some cotton yarn, pocket angel, a package of mini mounds which are gone (dh, ds & I ate them as I was going through the box) and a lovely letter.
I got the idea to ask for something local from lauriejo but have seen her post on here since Nov. Often the local stuff is the most interesting! It was a really fun package! Thank you tumrub, aka Cathy.

You are so welcome my dear friend. It was so much fun trying to shop for you. The relish is on the sweet side but good on burgers too.Yes Bruce wanted to contribute too. People get confused with Allen being part of our last name. Need to get some new labels made but have so many old ones that trying to get them used up.

I was on my way to bring my dog to the vet (knee injury 
) when I saw my package on the porch. The moment I saw Hoppa's name and address I was sooooo excited. And also soooo frustrated because it would have to wait until I got back.
It was PACKED! And each piece had me either laughing out out or saying, Awwwww, because it was so thoughtful. What a darling! So without further ado ... here are the pix!
My new favorite coffee mug ... The Queen Has Arrived!

Yes, there were shoes ...
[ATTACH=CONFIG]342927[/ATTACH]
And monkeys!
The darling pin cushion that was a collaborative effort with Allen is on the most gorgeous pottery base.

A bag pattern, ladies humor book, a little tin and DIXIE RELISH!

Thank you Hoppa!

Has anyone ever been woken up in the middle of the night to a big long sonic boom, followed up this creepy ring kind of creepy long high pitch (almost like nails on the chalkboard) riiiiing that just kept ringing and is starting to make your ears do the same. That happened to me, in middle of the night. My cat heard too, she was laying on my bed, so she jumped up on my window pane to "investigate" it and see if she figure out what was going on. No one in my house heard it, except me and the cat. Luckily, I was not the only one in the city to hear it, there was several people around the city who heard it too. One guy said: I thought we were being invaded by a UFO! LOL!! It turns out what happened was a few miles from my house a powerline caught on fire in the middle of the night and it blew up the electrical wires, causing the boom and the ring.

LindaR.........I am sorry that I am so late posting this. I have really been under the weather for over a week.

I got my squishy in the mail. I - LOVE- it! I really like the little clutch you made me. It is perfect for my jewelry when I go on a trip. I havent read the book and look forward to it. The rawhide bones are long gone. My puppies took off with them and I never saw them again. The buttons are just adorable. I'll have to find something special for them. The manicure set is going into the car as I always need one and can never find anything for those hangnails. I know I will enjoy the light. Last but not least the fabrics. I have almost no white or white on whites in my stash. Those were fabrics I really needed to buy. Thank you so much for everything. I loved your letter tool

Here is my awesome package from lawsonmugs. Got some of my favorite candy, first thing I did was open it and eat it. LOL! Got buttons, bobbin holders, 16 month calendar, book light, magnetic notepad, quilting magazine, some smell good jel. Got 3 fat quarters, a homemade tray and a homemade make-up bag. Oh almost forgot I got a chart that tells you what you can cut from a FQ and a real nice note that I forgot to put in the picture. Great swap this month and thank you so very much.
