We'd better write these down, just in case we forget! But what if the code lands in enemy hands? We might be taken over by hostile comforter makers who resent quilters for making nice bed coverings. LOL
OK, that was pretty lame, but it's the best I could come up with on short notice! It's been a long day, 2 doctors appoimtments, 2 seperate trips into Rochester, and now my hands, wrists and elbows are pretty tender. I'll do better, I promise!

Yes Leetec = that would be Tuadau! Mine didn't come either. Now I am sobbing hysterically. Hope she didn't pull a "We" a stick them in that big box at the post office. I did that with the 1800 swap and my oh my what a mess that turned out to be!

I guess that is pretty funny...hostile comforter makers....I laughed so hard I snorted when I said that out loud! ROTFLAO
I guess it has been a long day! Usually I get my own humor but today it had to be explained to me.

OMG...I had to wait a minute until I stopped laughing to type. It's hard to type when you're laughing so hard tears are rolling down your face. ROTFLAO
I just love you gals. You keep me laughing.

Okay ladies, this isn't funny!!! I ordered yarn from a shop in Murphys the same day your packages were mailed and it hasn't arrived yet either!! If I didn't know better I would wonder if my local mailman was paying me back for all the times he had to come to my door with packages!! LOL I must say, it was quite a sight when I walked into the post office and mailed off those packages. I just kept pulling them out of the black garbage can liner that they were in. One clerk asked if I was ever going to be done. I couldn't help but laugh and then told them that I have two more swaps that are going to be mailed by August 1st. The look on their faces was worth a million bucks!
We ~ I haven't gotten anything back, I didn't leave them in the big box outside so that shouldn't be a problem.
Keep me posted, I can't wait to hear if you all like them, I know I do but now I have no idea what to do with them. I am sure I will think of something.
Better go, I am going to try to finish sorting the Uglies swap and the jelly roll tonight and/or tomorrow so I can get those into the mail this week too. I have had a great time doing them but three at once was a bit much......better stick to one or two at the most in the future.
Chat soon, enjoy the packages as they arrive.
Happy stitching!!
