What a wonderful day! I spent all day running around the western part of KY with 3 good friends. We shopped for fabrics at 3 different places, ate a wonderful place called Patti's 1840 homeplace (or something like that we always just call it Patti's ) and went to Adsmore House at Princeton, KY. A very fun day with beautiful weather. Then when I get home I have 3 pkgs. in the mail!!! 2 e-bay pkgs. and my wonderful pkg. from Evie!

As I'm typing I'm munching on the delicious triple chocolate M&M's. Yummm! There was also 10, yes 10 beautiful fat quarters, a very nice quilting magazine, a very cute charm of a pin cushion, a measuring guage, some neat self stick markers (how did you know I used the last of mine last week?)and a pattern that will make a hat, 3 different totes and a cell phone carryall. There was also 2 postcards (which I love to get) from Mo. The deer gone hunting was so cute! And Evie....you can send all the beautiful weather this way that you want too. It has been so nice today! Thank you so much Evie!! The pkg. was just the perfect end to a perfect day! Hugs, Brenda

You are more than welcome Brenda! Glad you like everything. It was fun picking out everything.

I hope you don't get the yucky weather we had today.

You certainly had a fun filled day. That certainly is the way to enjoy a day - with friends and fabric!

Hugs
Evie

What a great day - I came home from work to find I had received a package from bethstreet. I was wonderful. I have a nice package of RJR fabrics "A beautiful time" collection can't wait to put these into something. I also got a nice pattern and the cut pieces to make an Easter table runner. How did you know I needed a nail file...maybe my typing skills at times was the hint. LOL The Pocket Patterns with templates is a very neat item I can't wait to use that. I also have now received a second quilters charm - I told my husband he better start looking for a braclet to put these on. Your letter was very nice and your daughter and grandaughter are just so adorable. Thank you so much for the wonderful package you were a GREAT secert pal.

Keeping my fingers crossed that your package arrives tomorrow, katiekoala. I know it's difficult to see an empty mail box. hugs, carol/kittyquilt

(No, I have no inside info, I am not your SP, just hoping.)

I checked my confrimation delivery and it said my gift had been delivered on the 26th. I haven't heard from my secret pal yet whether or not she received it. Hope she is doing alright.
