the poneys didn't stop at my box.

Not here either, but then I wasn't expecting it

OK back up to the top to find out where the BOX stoped!!

It didn't come to upper Illinois

Hmmm hopefully we'll hear soon!

Wasn't me!

It's here in Ohio !! sorry I wasn't able to get on line to let y'all know if. lots of very cool choices ..I'lldecide on some goodies and get in mail soon.

Hooray it made it...I sure was hoping the TAPE would hold!

So.....What did you pick Aliquilt????

If the box goes to someone that is at the COF, don't worry about getting it mailed. Just send it when you get home... Chris

Did Aliquilt go to the Branson COF Retreat?

Bumping to the top

Yes, Aliquilt was at the retreat. Does she have a package waiting at home?

I'm trying to recover today from the retreat after getting home yesterday afternoon. Many other ladies are going home today or even later.

I GOT THE BOX!!
DH went to PO for the mail and brought back THE BOX!
I tell ya Ladies, poor thing is beat up.
I'll replace with new one when I send.
Looking at all the goodies will post soon.

Califshrimp, glad the box got there if it was beat up. Must have taken that beating after I mailed it. I want to apologize for not posting, between work headaches, sudden move and retreat, the past month or more was more crazy than usual. I received the box 9/12, stumbling over it on the porch taking out boxes to the car. It got set aside and temporarily misplaced (dd moved it to the other house since it blended it with others). I mailed it Tuesday but didn't have the tracking # with me nor was my smart phone acting very smart in Branson grrrrr. And while I was gone, dd packed up the living room where the goodies were. If I remember, Diane Phalen Quilt book, 3 very cool wooden quilt theme wall signs, small portable ott light, baggy of body/hand lotions and baggy with large "chickie", elmer glue stick, chalk, side cutter and something else. As soon as I figure out where the box is, I'll add the names to the gifts. I had a hard time deciding on something, it was all great! Thanks ladies and again I apologize for my silence. Ali

Ali,
Getting to my house is a long and dangerous journey for packages. Not surprised it took a beating.

Glad the box is traveling again and people are posting.

Bless your heart, aliqult. What a mess. Yes, please repost when you get things organized as I am trying to keep track of items as best I can. Glad you were able to find some things to keep... Chris

It was so much fun choosing my items and hard not to go crazy so I chose:
From Wiley a awesome pin cushion in a little blue bowl.
From Cksvett a Fons and Porter "Quilters' Basting Safety Pin Assortment - Super happy to have this.
From Califshrimp I picked 2 items 1. Butterfly Kisses quilt pattern, I have a sister who adores butterflies. 2. a bag that had some cool stuff in it - a wrist pin cushion (always wanted one) it's a Red Ladies Society Red Hat, a emery board, a pack of needle threaders, one pretty flower print fabric and one panel of labels. What a haul I got!!!!!!! I already have a package to go to the PO tomorrow so I will mail this one also.

WAAHOO!! Went to the mailbox and inside though there was a box for QWL. But nope, it was the traveling box. Came in the mail today. Nice items inside. Will have the box back in the mail tomorrow. Many thanks. Will post pic later. Maggie

Bumping to the front.....

Waiting to see what Maggie took??????

Know she didn't mail it today, so if it didn't make it on Saturday, will be tomorrow before it goes... Chris

I finally had time to chose and I also have the box on it's way again. The holiday slowed down the mailing.
I chose a bag from citysandie with embroidery picture,threads,hoop,beads and a small sewing kit. Many many thanks Sandie. I also chose a bag of 5 inch cut squares from califshrimp. Thanks for those also califshrimp. I will use these items for sure. Had fun doing this and hope the box arrived in a couple of days to the next receiver. I will get the number to you Chris for the delivery. Hugs, Maggie

I cann't get picture to post. Maggie

Looks like some very nice things being taken from the box. Can't wait for my turn

It's here, it's here!! I couldn't imagine why someone was sending me a box until I opened it. I am going through the box and drooling. When I have made my choices, I will post a picture. It will be on its way to the next person tomorrow.

Deb

Deb, please check your PM's. Thanks... Chris

After going through the box, I chose several items. So that some of them could be seen better, I will post in 3 pictures. Here is the list:
From cksvette; a bag tape, disappearing ink pen, sewing gauge, and That Purple Thang.

From Huntres9; Big Blocks, Big Quilts book

From Auntie Reba; Simple Cottage Pattern Booklet.

From MedeMo; Two Christmas fabrics. These were several yards each. Also potholders and towels for different holidays.

There are a couple of items that I may decide to keep before I ship. If I do, I will post pictures of them.
