How many are missing?

raedar63 03-26-2011 12:43 PM

YAY!

Twisted Quilter 03-26-2011 04:32 PM

How about contacting the last few, they may have changed their mind about participating.

Done and one person didn't get theirs mailed and the other did mail them, but they are lost somewhere out there in mail land. Two people had their sets go MIA this round. Hopefully I will get them swapped out tonight and in the mail tomorrow.

WooHooooooooooo!

Update....... I didn't get the blocks swapped as planned last night.

I had a SNAFU at my house last night. My gas stove got bumped and a burner was on all day but wasn't lit. Needless to say my house smelled of natural gas and it is 32 degrees here so I had to open all the windows and french doors all evening and let the place air out and I went to a friends house for the evening. I was very lucky my house didn't go up in flames or that I got sick or the cat.

So tonight is the night.

Missi ~ so glad to hear that you and your fur baby were not harmed by the gas. Someone up there was surely watching over you. Hope all is better today.

LovingIzabella 03-29-2011 08:22 AM

Missi glad to hear you are okay! I had a propane buildup under my home when I lived alone and they had told me I was lucky I didn't smoke :shock:

OMG, I'm so happy you and kitty are OK. Scary!

dream56 03-30-2011 10:15 AM

Glad you and kitty are ok. We want you safe - could have exploded. I could just imagine an explosion of 1.5" pieces they would have been all over your town. So glad someone was looking out for you.

quilting Carol 03-30-2011 11:08 AM

WOW your angel was watching over you...Good to hear all is well...

Missi 03-31-2011 12:19 PM

Just back from the post office. I dropped off all the envelopes that had postage. Hopefully I will get back there before they close to mail the ones I need to buy postage for.

Everyone - thank you so much for the extra sets and/or fat quarters. It was like Christmas when I would open a package. Also a huge thanks to beautress for the cash to help cover any packages that were short or missing postage!!!!!!!

Sign Up for the spring swap is up :)

I was wondering too about the neutral swap.

davidwent 04-02-2011 06:43 AM

WOW!!! Was that fast!!!! I just got my stamps!! I won't list the people I got them from but just wanted to say after a quick look the stamps I recieved are amazing! I have been in a bit of a slump and haven't sewn a thing in a couple weeks but getting these today has lit my fire!!! My wife and I recently bought a parakeet, I think I will use these to start a cage cover
Thank you everyone!!!!
David

Crafty3790 04-02-2011 08:49 AM

nurse bonnie 04-02-2011 09:17 AM

David ~ what an awesome idea!!

boilerbarb 04-02-2011 09:27 AM

Question,
After I get my sqishies do I feedback to the people whose bags I received? This is my first trade and I'm in for anything else.

dream56 04-02-2011 09:40 AM
