    It definitely isn't me! I love fabric and chocolate, but I'm only 35 and don't even have any kids yet (at least human ones, I just have a furbaby) let alone grandkids.

    I just mail off my package - sadly had to state what was in it, and amount. So just made something up and rounded it to $20.00 as i don't want them to have to pay duty.

    When I send International on the swaps, I list what is in there but greatly reduce the price so it doesn't go over $10.00 for the monthly swaps or $20.00 for this one. I've never seen it challenged.

    Some good questions.
    Like djmat I can't wear costume jewelry.
    No big tree have one already decorated use pot holders and towels I make them.
    No to scarves gloves and aprons.
    I make table runners and toppers.
    Like all 100% cotton fabric. Sometimes use flannel for quilt backings and baby quilts.
    Never had any microware bowls.
    Love Superior Titanium Coated Needles (larger eyes are needed for my eyes). Always can use color catchers and blades for rotary cutter (45).

    Hope this helps my partner.
