    Hi SP...no more updates from USPS...seems it takes a long time to sort a box. According to them, your package will arrive on the 20th.

    Maybe it is taking a slow boat down the Mississippi on it's way south...but if it follows that route it will have to go a bit west.

    On more clue, something in my SP's address has to do with a Revolutionary General and a President.

    I got my package today. I love the orange fabrics and the navy with dragonflies and butterflies (might be used in the next boom swap I do.) Also some great Maxine panels, my friend is going to love the little wall hanging I make out of these. I also got a quilting mag and book, which I can't wait to look into. Also a charm pack and some gummy bears. Last but not least some treats for my spoiled jack russell, Nina. Might I add she was sniffing up the package before I could set it down, she knew there was something in there for her as always. Thanks again Soniboo. I loved it.

    For a group project I once worked on, I purchased 100 plain white tote bags which we decorated (with markers). I still have many plain bags left and have been giving one in my swap packages! I decorate with fabric and try to choose colors my sp will appreciate.

    Okay, well really, here it is: I am a tote addict. Not just the nicer ones like from L.L. Bean, or the Professional Tote. I've got those and use them, but I also really like the ones that you get in stores for $1. Joanns and TJ Maxx have some really cute ones.

    Just used one today at the local Mennonite vegetable stand. I take projects to our guild sew-in day, or to show and tell, etc. Love them. I think they'd be good in a SP package!

    See, I just needed to see what peeps were getting to get the ideas going...
    Cool, I can't wait until you get me as a swap partner.

    Am doing better with my pain medicines was to take 1 every 4 hrs as needed for pain and went 7 hours this afternoon before I took it and the other one, muscle relaxer was to take 1 every 6 hours and I went 7 hours. So I am doing better.

    A chop stick... cut the end of an old toothbrush off, a toothpick, or just a tapestry needle, they have blunt ends, I mostly use the pin that I've just removed. Lots of things you can use.
    I grab one of my hair chop sticks and am using it for now. I can't believe I lost my purple thang. I've had it for almost 6 years and never lost it. I always keep it by my machine and never use it anywhere else. Those darn gremlins are at it again.

    I agree the orange fabrics are lovely.

    You will find it as soon as you go buy another one.

    Oh yes, I love the orange fabrics, too. Nice orange is so hard to find even at Halloween time.
