    I think because if you put fabric in an envelope it is squishy the package will be squishable.
    Okay, thank you..:)
    She's right. squishies are soft packages that you can squish and firmies are boxes not squeezable. Cute huh? Don't know who started calling them that but we all seem to have picked up the names. Mary
    Squishies and firmies...have to remember that...thankyou..:)
    I well remember the discussion when someone first asked on here what to call a pkg that wasn't a squishie. It got a big racy!! LOL A pkg that isn't soft but is actually hard as in a hard backed book! You can probably image some of the suggestions! LOL

    It can take some time to cross the pond to you dear, patient SP. Just been on the internet researching where you live and it is up in the general area of the Great Lakes and you have a lot of interesting museums where you are.

    Hope that it will be worth the wait!

    8-)
    what kind of museums

    I received the nicest package today. It was wonderful. Nina and I had a great time opening it. She seems to be getting the idea that these packages are not just for me but for her too. :)

    My SP was Cheryl W. Wow, lets see if I can list everything. Some wonderful fabric, (I am having a hard time picking the prettiest), a recipe book, a magazine, a note pad, a bookmark, some cute scissor charms, Jelly beans (yummy), a little flag, pins, thread (such lovely bright colors), a treat for Nina and she was so thoughtful she sent some stick on letters for our upcoming VBS.

    Wow, Cheryl thank you so much, I love it all. What a nice surprise after a hard day at work.

    I love this fabric, isn't fabric the reason we all work?

    To my secret pal that lives down in that state that has a couple of hump backs and crooked letters and a few eyes, I sent out your package today I was trying to get you something and the company was out of what it was :( sooooooo....I went ahead and mailed out your package this morning. Lo and Behold, we go over to the coast and stop by the place and they were just stocking their shelves with what I wanted to put in your package. Sooooooooooo, In a few days, I will send you out this "extra" item. Dang I knew I should have waited till this afternoon to send it out. Please forgive me, but when you get it, I KNOW you will like it.
