Chriss ... I'll buy my ticket now! As cold and windy as it's been here in PA, coming to California would be a welcome change, although, they are saying into the mid-high 80's over the weekend.

Oh it is getting closer LOL. Are we supposed to buy a new box when we get it? This is all new to me and I just want to do it right.

I am still in Paducah (well, actually Marion, KY). I haven't been able to access the internet. I'm leaving here in a couple of hours and will be home by tomorrow morning. I'll update our list. BTW, the kids found my flash drive so I still have everyone's info. I'll post in the morning.

Keep stitchn,
Jan

I will be expecting you Joann

Brenda, the box may be ok for another mailing... but if you need to get a new one go to the post office and tell them you need a "Large flat rate box" then you put the box together.... tape the bottom refill it and mail it off.... the box is free but mailing it is under $15. Tell them you want delivery confirmation and send it off.... too fun huh?

Beth, sorry, I didn't realize that you'd just had it 2 people ago or I would've moved you down the list.

Joann (Bransmom), have no fear, when you get the elephant, it will all become crystal clear. The important part is to have fun.

Chriss, LOL on the plane ticket!

Keep stitchn,
Jan

Hi I had a brand new box and switched everything over to it, so it may not be necessary to get a new one for a few more people.

The Elephant is here!

Chris, sorry, you're not next on the list in the box. One more stop before it gets to you. Next stop is luvquilting07/Deb here in PA.

********************** U P D A T E *****************************

Deb, the box is on it's way. Shouldn't take too long to get to you, we're both in PA. Have fun!

The box was OK for another shipment so I just packed it up and sent it on. It is NOT in a "flat rate" box, just a normal priority box. I guess maybe I was confused because I thought it was suppose to be in a flat rate box, which is smaller, but in any event, it's on it's way. Enjoy!

Joann
