Mine was sent later than usual b/c of the PM hiccup. Unfortunately, it was returned to me. I had the address wrong. I will resend tomorrow.

I'm sure the PM problem is why I haven't gotten mine yet. No worries. I'll still be here when it arrives.

Got home from camping, still not package. Sounds like the burp in the system caused quite a problem.

Anxiously waiting for my new secret pal. This has been so much fun. Decided I would save everything I get and then decide in December what to do so I can use them all for one project. Should be fun and interesting.

Thank you everyone that has participated. When I get a name I google the town/area to see what it is like and have learned alot.

I do think everything is running late! I sent mine - but according to comments below, she hasn't received it yet. And I haven't received from my SP either. This month is for patience, huh? hehe

I'm sure hoping the two I sent out show up pretty soon. They were mailed over a week ago and I haven't seen any response yet. Hmmmm - I don't think I can trace them either since I weighed them at home and used stamps.

Is it allowed to ask specific people if they got theirs yet? I don't want them to miss out. If they don't get them, do I send a new one?

Thanks!

Yes, I think a lot of people just got behind this month-- partially due to the PM problem, partially due to the start of Summer-- graduations, last day of school activities, vacations and, at least for some, the onset of Summer gardening activities-- mowing, weeding, planting, etc...

I was a little late sending mine, but hope she receives it soon! I haven't gotten mine yet, but I'm not worried, because it *was* a crazy month! Hopefully, June will be a little slower! :-)

Thanks and thanks again to Tapdancetutu (Tina).

After a really BAD week last week I can't tell you how great it was to come home today to a lovely envelope with my name on it :)

The measuring gauge is really cool, a clever little widget for us quilters. Thank you.

I have to give you double thumbs up for your fabric selection Tina. They are perfect, according to yours truly. I love the emerald and garnet FQs. They are jewel-toned and a bit marbled.

The FQ you sent with the sewing theme would be great in an I SPY quilt - something else I love to make.

And lastly, what neat photo easels! I had never heard of such a thing. They are sturdy cardstock with a sticky side. Once you stick it to a photo you can pop out part of the easel. This makes a resting point for the photo so that it stands up - as if it were in a frame or easel. Very cool.

thank you again Tina,
dawne
