    and here's a pic of mine....the big piece of fabric in the back is an apron and placemats. Oh and there was chocolate too that is not in the picture...the kids and I were busy with it :-) I can't wait to try the clips on binding.

    fidgety - I know what you mean.. some of these packages were filled with way more than $10 worth of items.... eeeks....

    My SP received her package yesterday, I checked the tracking - and I haven't heard from her yet. I hope she liked what I sent, I stayed within the $10 budget though....

    I know what you mean...I kinda feel the same way. My SP received hers awhile back and sent a nice PM and was happy, but I still can't help feeling a little bad..next time!!!

    WooHoo, my SP package notification says it was delivered to the Lone Star State yesterday. Now I just have to wait to see if she liked what I sent. I always have a difficult time knowing if my package of "squishies" was sufficient. Just keeping my fingers crossed and saying a little prayer. I get more excited knowing that my SP package was well received than I do about getting one for myself. Now I am joining everyone on the couch cause I am waiting for my package. LOL Bringing chocolate.

    Sorry Ginny, I left the card out of the box, didn't think of it till I got to the Post Office. Hope you enjoy every thing. And I love the clips for binding, no getting stuck lol.

    Hi All, If my SP package was delivered between Friday 3/11/11 and Friday 3/18/11, I will be delayed in posting, as I am away from home until then and won't know it's been delivered. Let me say thank you in advance, I have NEVER been disappointed in any SP I've received, most of us choose things we ourselves would like to have, even within the $10 limit, I only made 1 purchase for my SP this time, everything else came from my stash, things I've gathered over the past year I've been involved in the swap. Sale items etc. I mostly never send chocolate because of the heat in Florida, we have a fabulous little chocolatier just a block from where I work and she won't sell me her homemade chocolates except in December and January as they don't hold up well in transit. I'm grateful she told me this or I would not have known and I would be sending melted chocolate mess. So I always feel as though I shorted my pal but I don't want a mess when my pal opens her/his package. My package will go in the mail today, it has a long way to travel.............across the ocean :) :) hummm....which ocean could that be? Atlantic? Pacific? Indian? Did I forget any? So Pal, don't give up on me it's coming :) :) :)

    I worry every time I do one if I sent enough. I'm having a really hard time staying within the limit and putting lots of goodies in. I think I've done better this month.
