well if the post office made a bigger box it wouldn't have to be twins... it could just be one big elephant.... ugh... funny thing is I have a full box here I could send out now... and it could be triplets before the end of the week.... at this rate I wonder how long it will take us to get rid of our junk???

That's very true. If the post office had something reasonable, I would have sent one. I couldn't even get an envelope the size I needed, so the lady at the PO suggested seperate boxes.

Did you know an elephant takes about 2 years to have a baby?

Yes, I knew that about the gestational period of an elephant.

Chriss, it doesn't do us any good to send off this elephant if we keep taking more stuff out of it! Our stash isn't growing, but it's not getting any smaller either.

Keep stitchn,
Jan

oh Jan, it is a vicious circle.

thankfully Michelle PM'd me and told me the second box only had one item in it... so really there is one box... I hope.... time will tell....

I had the same problem with this quilt/needlework frame. I didn't want it but it wouldn't fit in the box. So here is what I'm going to do. The first person who ask for it that is in this swap and is willing to pay the postage to mail it can have it. The frame has bolts that go in the frame that makes it adjustable up to 20 inches square. There are leaders to pin the blocks to just like a quilt frame. I think it would work great for a quilt as you go project because you can quilt in the corners even. I have never used it myself. I have no idea what it would cost to mail but can let you know after I mail it.

It just dawned on me that I will receive this box when I have a houseful of company (my Daughter is coming home for spring break on Sat and bringing her boyfriend and HIS 3 roomates) I better pull stuff now to put in the box because my craft room will be occupied...by 2 "boys"
