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

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.
    Another beautiful package. This is so much fun.

    I saw the one you sent to Sheila- in Erie. Great idea and love the fabric!

    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...

    You hit it right on the head! I enjoy all the silliness and seeing what everyone receives.
