    Candi, I scratched your name of my list. Now who is my sp? Has crafty Darlene given any more hints?

    I want that turkey pattern

    Krystyna, If you are making something for me you better make it a lot bigger.

    I went to the fabric garden yesterday a 6hr round trip. you will never guess what I bought, so i'll tell ya. I bought the brand new Janome (no not the $12,000.), but the new Hello Kitty sewing machine. I have to wait until Christmas. I collect sewing machines, mostly antiques, but had to have this one. I really would like to locate the white toy hello kitty, but don't make anymore. I will take this to some sewing classes.DD said that she would not be seen with me. She's no fun!

    Wow... I have not checked this tread in awhile and we are up to 45 pages...I have some reading to do !!! Question for all of you: My package this month does not fit in a flat rate envelope, the last time I sent a small box it cost me over 10 bucks. What is the best way to send a average size box? Magazines fit perfectly on the bottom and then extra treasures are packed on top.. is it the weight? If I tell the postman it is books and send it that way how long does it take to get to the other end ? Last month my sp sent me the same size box and her cost was under $5...

    They are checking media rate packages as of late, so don't risk it. Either you will get it back with an extra charge or your SP will get the bill. Parcel post is cheaper, but not by much. Your best bet is to check out package sizes for flat rate mailing at the post office website. I love the padded flat rate envelopes. You can really jam a LOT in there!

    You can always add gussets to the sides! But, boo hoo hoo for you cuz you're not getting it.

    I got a ton of t shirts on sale about a year ago at Michael's - with the coupon I had at the time they came out to $1.50 each - and I've been making sweet embroidered shirts for friends and family. I wish we had a way of knowing our SP's size HINT HINT

    My SP doesn't post here much so I am thinking I can pretty much say anything and she'll never know.

    Here's a hint: my SP has feet.
    This is my first morning back on the board after having a housefull of company and then getting a bad bug. Krystyna, your post was one of the first I read and it made me laugh. My tummy muscles are SO sore and you still made me laugh.

    I have 2 pals and this fits both of you.
    I am working hard to put your packages together, so I can get them mailed this week.
    I think you will both be happy.
    Ooh, this one sounds like me.

    And here is another hint, one of my SP likes novelty fabrics and one doesn't. :XD:
    OK, I need to start a list. There are too many clues that sound like ME! I don't like novelty fabrics. Candi check.
