Hi All, Just wanted to let you know that I have received flowered FQ's from Shari & Lynn. Thanks guys they are beautiful !I will be sending mine out over the weekend. Here I was all ready and "POOF" my hubby decided to start a really big project this week that I had to help with (after all, it was my idea to tear out a bunch of concrete and make a new walkway and patio  ). But, he is gone this weekend for a Reserve Drill so I should be able to get everything ready and out by Monday.Thanks again guys! Peggy |

Love the flower prints I have received so far. Hyacinths from Lyn, muted colors from Shari and such a bright and pretty green with purple flowers from Peggy that I just took out of my mailbox moments ago. Mine went to the P.O. yesterday. I'm NOT going to be the tail end this month!!!! Hope you are all enjoying this as much as I am. Love those squishies to show up in my mail. And we just gotta do fossil ferns in the near future, I couldn't resist and went to Over the Rainbow and ordered several cuts after they were mentioned on the board. Gorgeous!!! I don't drink, smoke, gamble, or swear, (very much). My vice is FABRIC and I have no one to stop me from my indulgence!!!!!!!  So glad they no longer have poor farms. Wonder if I could have taken my fabric and quilt patterns there? LOL

Sure glad I got my FQs out early......I just spent a week in the hospital having more work done on my heart. I was having some mild angina again and although they couldn't really detect any worsening of my condition, they found some old blockage that they were able to reduce with a balloon and a stent. Just got home today from Salt Lake City and have a couple of days to take it easy and then back to trying to increase my stamina. The procedure that was done will hopefully improve it substantially as it was a major artery that they unblocked. I was pleasantly surprised with beautiful squishies from Lisa P., Debra and Pat. (Your business envelope held up fine, Pat) I'm glad that so many of you are sending purples as that is my favorite color. Thanks all for the fun fabrics.

Lyn.. so glad you received your pansy FQ... I am hoping that the pansies make it to all very soon.. I mailed them out on the very last day of MAY  . I had purchased the floral design about 1 week before I moved in hopes that I could get them package up and out prior to loading and unloading boxes... but that did not happen as the fabric was stored in one of the boxes by fellow room mates and I found it about 2 weeks ago... then.... it was just a load of major procrastination... on my part. that is my story and I am sticking to it...
