Awww... looks like your Easter basket came early! How wonderful!
I'm not ready to sit on the bench yet... with my package just going out tomorrow, I haven't even had time to think about the one coming to me!! The mailing deadline is very soon, so it won't be long now for the rest of us! : )

Such a wonderful bx just full all the way to the top with 2 books (I haven't read) some hot chocolate, an EASTER BUNNY, eggs with goodies in them, a small pair of scissors, 3 fat quarters with can you believe it? CATS. How did she know I was saving up fat quarters to make a quilt with cats, cats and more cats on it? Also sent a jig saw puzzle to put together and 2 really cute mug rugs chaped like easter eggs and the cutest pin cushion that lookd just like Nemo! Thank you Pomlover I loved everything and the chocolate is still intact, meaning the bunny still has his head on! I also pm'd Kathy and told her thank you and will send one to Susanne as well.

Agreed. Good points.

Just seems to me that this is a social gathering to make new friends and contacts and that doesn't happen when people receive their gifts and then....nothing. It's a big let-down for me as the giver. I don't get to see your face when you open your gift so a written description has to stand in. I didn't join this swap for the stuff. I joined for the fun of getting to know someone and choosing something special that perhaps they wouldnt have chosen for theirselves.
