I'm in the same boat Omak so don't worry! I am putting on the last two borders right now and then I will finish the whole thing between tonight and tomarrow. It won't go out til Monday either. But it will be in the mail on Monday.
I just had too many deadlines and life interfering! But I am back on track now pretty much.

Well, today was the deadline to mail... I didn't meet the deadline. :oops:
The quilt is done, there might be a little something else to go in the package with it, but that's as far as it got as I haven't left the house today. I had planned to go to the PO early this morning, but it was snowing hard and I wimped out. I'm hoping that the recipient will understand.
And for the person who has/will send mine, not having it yet is probably best - it'll be something to cheer me up when it arrives.
Happy New Year, everyone.

And, now it is snowing for the last four hours ... I haven't even had time to check out the forecast to see how long ... but, I have only wanted to be snowed in since I ever first heard about it .. wouldn't it be AWFUL if THIS is the year that it happens???
Darned global warming, anyway .... but, since it is winter, I suppose the climate changing from ninety degree desert dry to 28 degree snowfall (high desert event - - ) climate change from summer to fall to winter to spring IS a normal concurrence! LOL

It is a privilege to participate in a memorial service celebrating a life that made a difference in so many ways. A peaceful passing must seem like an added blessing to a wonderful life.
BLessings to you and your family <wave>

Peaceandjoy: May God grant you all peace and comfort. A famous author once said that no one really dies as long as there is someone left behind to remember him. May your Mom live a long life in your hearts.

I'm glad you got it and like it. I had to finish it here at Lauren's since I didn't get it done at home. I wanted to put a few more snowflakes on it, but was running out of time and Lauren said it looked fine the way it was.
I was getting a bit worried since I had sent about 5 packages out and all had been received and yours hadn't.
I was reading another thread you posted and noticed that you liked black licorice. Just had to get some for you.
