Hey Shari, please don't rush, I have been sick as a dog this weekend, and haven't even been out of the house since Friday. I didn't even think about shopping for April's package yet. :cry: :cry: I will try to get it together to mail next Saturday. Sorry for the delay!! :bluesad:

Sarah...

What a wonderful package that made my birthday wonderful!!!

A very pretty "basket" type for greeting cards. PLUS beautiful "hand made" cards that have appliques on them :smile:

Then a very unique (must have the directions for this one) stand up quilt picture quotes!!! Sarah.. they are wonderful.. You had to see me try to figure out the "cut out" sizes.. It is a wonderful idea for any season and/or reason.. :up:

A candle scented with rich vanilla icing.. WOW.. you do not gain any weight with this....

sarah is a wonderful :angel:

Thank you...
Karen

Hi Shari and a great big thanks for the great book and fabric. I have been sewwwwwwwww sick this week, :sick: :sick: I haven't had time to thank you. I haven't even gone shopping yet. Believe it or not, I was thinking on the line of a pattern or a book, but I don't want to look like I don't have any ideas of my own... :nc:I promise I will get something in the mail to you by mid next week. Sorry for the delay... :nervous:

Pat,

I have told you privately now i will tell you publicly...i have the best angel sister around...:angel:

Pat always sends something for the kids in each one of the packages and today my eldest son said "I love Ms. Pat" the other two chimed in and agreed.....

The fabric is so pretty, the candle was really nice, the nick nack is awesome...the magent is going on my cabnet at work....

My package never gets to Pat before hers gets to me...she always sends hers out early...Pat has never complained and always understood....i think i have that last min sydrome....hopefully before the swap ends i will get it together....

Pat...i love you too....

Debbie's April package arrived yesterday. I got a Mary Engelbreit teacup pincushion and crochet book, a tealight holder that has a picture of a mother and 2 daughters having tea on it and Cuddly white Hershey bear with a box of Hershey's kisses for my birthday.
She is so good to me.
My March theme was Bears and Blooms. She put a bear kit and stuffing in the box. The stuffing was the padding for the box-it was great. There were wildflower seeds. Lovely pink rose fabric. A flower pen and notepad. A picture frame with flowers on it. A Great beaded Cross, (she made it, I'm sure.)

I am really enjoying this swap.
