    Exactly. My own SS-ee was considerate enough to post and let me know she received her package, almost immediately. But here it is a month after Mailing Date and a week after Opening Date, and some of our friends still haven't had any response, whatsoever. That really hurts.

    I'm so ready to start making something else. I should not even think about starting a new project but sewing a quilt top together that I've had tucked away for a couple of years! I do think I'll get that out and start in on it. I just feel kind of restless today and I hate that feeling. Does anyone else experience restlessness?

    I challenged another board member to finish a Christmas quilt by the 24th. Got mine done over the weekend. She's binding hers. maybe you should join the challenge.

    Does it have to be a Christmasy-y quilt or can it be just a quilt, being made as a Christmas gift?

    This year, I decided to sort by zip codes. Thought maybe some might make a new friend close by their homes. You never know who might be living right around the corner from you! And, as luck would have it, we do have a few that will be meeting up in the near future!!

    My ss was already a quilting buddy...we thought that was so funny when we revealed. Unfortunately, the one I sent to is very far away...I'm way up north, she's down south...Florida takes 2 days to drive through!

    We weren't specific. Just anything that you've started and haven't finished . . . done by midnight on the 24th.

    Then I accept your challenge! I have two quilts, to finish. One is for my great-niece and the other for my great-nephew. The first (printed Princess panel with border) only needs trimming, binding, and a label. The second (twin-sized, MineCraft) needs quilting (cross-hatch is my 'specialty'), trimming, binding, and a label.

    Anyone else gonna take up this noble challenge?

    I received my secret santa package also. I was away on the 14th and was not able to join in then. I received some really cute penguin fat quarters, a few adorable patterns, some christmas labels to sew on projects a some other lovely things. I even received a gift card for my dog! Thanks you K. Leblanc your gift was truly generous and much appreciated. Merry Christmas
