To all the bench warmers out there. Getting you package early isn't easy either. I got mine last weekend and now I have a long wait for the fun to start again. So I am working on my son's quilt and trying to come up with an idea for a cute doll quilt for my DGD's B-day that is next week. Just remember anticipation is part of the fun.

i am sure whenever you sent it, it brought a smile to your secret pal's face. i make hand made things for just about every swap so i have to think about what fabrics/patterns i want to use and it takes my artistic mind just a bit to get cranking.
and then at times i want to do something different so it takes a coupla days to figure that out plus i go through early posts of my sp's to see if i get inspiration from something they have said. so it takes me a bit to get it all together. i probably will never be an early mailer for these reasons.

I also got 3 other nice pieces of fabric, a handy little plastic drawstring bag, chopsticks, a pretty little notepad, 3 patterns, an adorable finger pincushion, a little tablerunner that is even handquilted, a mug rug, a chocolate scented candle that already has my sewing room smelling wonderful. She even remembered my furbaby with a Halloween toy. And...my very own chicken. She didn't come with a name. She is white with black polka dots. Any suggestions? I will send a picture this weekend when one of my computer savy children are home.

to my secret pals i mentioned that i was trying my hand at writing a poem. here goes....
Over the oceans, and through the woods,
To my secret pals homes they go;
The mail carrier knows the way to carry the firmies today
through the elements up, up and away.
Over the oceans, and through the woods,
Oh, what should my secret pals know?
One is near and one is far, a lemony lick and a hoppity hop,
I read your info as your packed firmies will show.
Over the oceans, and through the woods,
How I hope you will enjoy your things.
Do you hear the postal carrier yet? "Ring-a-ling".
Hurrah for my firmy was delivered this day!
i think there is a clue or two in here but not really sure. for one sp your package is due to be delivered tomorrow and for the other sp i did not get a confirm number so not sure when yours is due to arrive. hopefully soon, lickety hoppity split!
