Mine went to PO first thing this morning. Winging it's way west - but how far west? Well, guess I'd better check my atlas, it could be south-west. I'm really confused.????

I received my first set of FQs from omacookie today. Do I have to post pictures to be the first to qualify?
Picture to follow.

I received some lovely fabrics from ssnare. Great summer choices. I have to apologize because at the moment I am unable to post pictures. I guess I am going to have to take my computer in to see if it can be fixed. When I try to download pictures, it says I an not authorized. Really, I have done it for years. But I also lost my documents and my pictures I had on here.

Thanks so much Sherry.

Almost didn't make it to the post office today. Good thing there is one by me that is open until 10pm.

My day started at 430 this morning on my day off.....hate it when I can't sleep on my day off. Took my little Lucy to the groomers for a bath and nails, then mom and I went and got our hair cut. When we finished that ran to Wallyworld to get some tape and a few things. Then up to get Lucy from the groomers. By the time we got home I needed a nap........

Then this evening she wanted to go to Cato clothing store and that is when I hit the post office. The FQ's should be delivered by Wednesday next week.

Like I said earlier, one is going Northeast and the other Northwest.

jaba 05-10-2013 07:35 PM

Found a post office today, 1 headed south and the other northeast. And we're headed home, have had a great vacation but ready for my sewing cave....hope brat gets to see it and enjoy it too.... soon!

Hmmm, I'm northeast of you. Could it be? Maybe me? Maybe?

Congrats MaryMo on the first post! No FQs for me yet, but the anticipation just makes it sweeter when they arrive. I have some of that ant fabric, don't remember if I used it for this swap???? Geez I must be getting that oldtimers disease.

I too was in Bowling Green, KY on May 8. DD had a college tour of Western Kentucky University. I think this is going to be the one. You will have to share the LQS there with me. I will be visiting BG several times in the next 4-6 years. :thumbup:

I did not make it to the PO today. We had a repairman come. He was here 3 hours! During last Sunday's thunderstorms our directv went out. It couldn't receive the signal. Well, he said that it was struck by lightning and burnt up all of the outside components. We had no clue! It did no damage to the house inside or out. With that said, I have several packages to go to the PO on Monday.

I love how everyone, with their fabrics, interprets summer. This was a great idea. so excited, can't wait for my packages.

Oh! Happy Birthday!

Mine are being mailed tomorrow. Sorry I'm slow. I took them with me to visit my DD and hold her sweet baby on Friday BUT I left my house at 11:45. Po closes at 12 for lunch. I got back at 4:45...PO closes at 4:30. Wonky hours in my small town. One package is going North of me and alittle East. The other is going alittle more North and alittle more East. :D

Glad you like them, boy did they fly out to coast! The other package (which needed to go 2000 fewer miles) hasn't gotten there yet.

Since last Friday my weekend has been very hectic. And it seems that I'm the only person in my house that knows how to check the mail. I put some out-going mail in the box this morning and found Friday's and Saturday's mail. I have received my FQ's from omacookie and tumrub. They are beautiful, I love all of them. I will post pictures tonight when I get home.
