Dear Secret Pal, I will be sending you out your package on Tuesday since I went to the post office at 11:40 this morning and they were already cloesed not sure what is up with that. You will be getting some of your favorite fabric and your favorite drink which is hot chocolate:)

(2) You love homemade things. I made you two. My sewing machine decided to quilt working so one item is not as special as I would like.

I received a beautiful box full of goodies from Liza63. Thank You, Liza
I will be sending my package to my SP Monday morning bright and early. Hint: She sounds like someone that will be fun to have around.

I have my SP package all ready to go! didn't make it to the post office in time , so it is going to have to wait till Tuesday.
My package is going to a state (maybe to the state of confusion after some hints).
She either likes fish theme or fishing not sure...
she lives in a state know for bodies of water...
thier state ranks first in state boat registrations...
its a state that is north of me.

I've noticed that the PO will over charge me. And I can't figure that out when I say I need the same postage rate in stamps as it cost to send it. And the last time I had to pay 58 cents more for stamps then it cost me to send it...now can someone tell me how this can happen....and it's not the first time either.

I knew she liked cats. I happened to have an abundance of different cat squares on hand and also a shortage of time ... so I figured easy peasy. Black background. All was going swimmingly well -- even my terribly perfect binding ... until I noticed that I had sewn the seam on part of it on backwards. I ripped out my extremely swell seam ripper (an angel gift to me one month) and RRRRIIIIPPPPP! Right through the fabric. ARRGHHHHH. And I was on the last corner, too.
Well, no time to re-do the whole thing so ... when in doubt, smack on some lace! I've got plenty of that. Then it looked toooo black. I looked around and my eyes fell on shoebox full of gold and silver and multi-colored sequin and beaded trim that I would never use on a veil ... I should have left well enough alone. I broke two needles in the process ... and the needle on my embroidery machine which was running at the time broke one in sympathy!
So ... here is the monstrosity. I hope she has a sense of humor, but I don't think so ... too bad for her. Sadly the photos do not show it in all it's sparkling splendor.
BTW, Lori, our leading lunatic, said she liked it! :shock: :?: :shock: :?:
