    sending to and from Canada is a nightmare too! Can take a month to get there, but if same size package were to go to Europe, would take a week. i don't get it!

    It's the postal system. Doesn't matter which country, they're all the same. I can send two parcels to USA to the same address on the same day and they arrive three days apart. And then I send one Monday that arrives Thursday. No reasoning this one out.

    I'll figure something out, don't worry.

    Let us know when you find out for sure, I can get a few things together for those that may not receive a package.

    The following may not be PC, but what a CRAPPY, CHILDISH, HATEFUL thing to do to your friends and fellow board members!!! You were all for the swap BEFORE the switch, why would you back out now??? I played around for several days before finding my way around. I'm finding cool new things everyday. It upset me to no end that GROWN-UPS would act like this.You signed up to FOLLOW THRU with this swap....SO PUT ON YOUR BIG GIRL PANTIES AND SEND OUT YOUR PACKAGE!!!!!

    I'm sorry if I've upset my fellow swap members with my vent, it just really hurts my heart that somebody that may have been sooooo looking forward to a package, may not get one now. I'll shut up and go sit in the naughty corner now

    wuv2quilt you don't need to sit in the naughty corner although I welcome the company.
    You just said what several of us were thinking.
    Now back to my corner.
