shirlm OFFLINE Posts: 113 Thank you received: 1	Sylvia, your thoughtfulness is so appreciated. Having a HST represented from Germany is especially meaningful for me since I spent 3 years there. Wish my German was still as good as your English, though!

Hi Sylvia - Your English is just great. I will look forward to receiving one from you. I also sent in 616 so you should probably get one from me too. This is all so much fun "meeting" all your wonderful ladies.

My prayers go out to all the folks in Christchurch. If there is anything I can do I would like to help. I pray that none of our "quilting family" were affected by the quakes. My prayers and best wishes to you all.

Hi Sylvia, how wonderful you put in enough for each one of us I will be looking forward to receiving one from you, I am from Australia and have some very good friends who came from Germany to live in Australia and have been here for many years, I will love to be able to show them the quilt I make with the one from you that came all the way from their homeland. They do go back periodically for holidays to Hamborg and Bovaria
All of my thoughts and prayers are with those in N.Z.

Hello sisters and brothers, I has created it. 616 HST are ready and wait for the dispatch. First I wanted to sew only 112 HST, but then I have seen that I am the only sister of Germany and thought, I make for all sisters and brothers one HST, everybody has one from Germany. It makes me happily to member of this community to be.
So, I hope my English is not too bad, I write without translation programme.

Greetings

Sylvia,

We are so happy to have Germany represented in our exchange and we will eagerly await your 616 HST's. You're English is very good and you can get more practice by letting us hear from you during this exchange process.

If you have any questions about the PayPal process or shipping, please don't hesitate to contact either Clara (ClaraLawrence) or me.

Debbie

SoTTT's Sisters and Brothers...I know you will be interested in reading this email from Sue (ScreenName: CYBERSUE). Sue's was the first package I received from that country today and I notified her this morning that her package had arrived.

Sue lives about three hours from the earthquake in Christchurch and she sent this when I asked if she had been affected by the quake. She said it would be OK if I shared it with all of you.

Hi Debbie,
Thanks for your concern. We are on the other side of the Island 3hrs away, but we certainly felt 3 of the quakes. Our family over there are shaken but have all been accounted for, our son took a whole day to locate his best friend, but some dear friends have parents in Christchurch who among the missing, and they are very worried. We were just over there 2 weeks ago, so are thankful we missed it. Amazingly 120 people were rescued alive during the night, although one poor man needed a leg amputated to free him. It is not only the city centre that has sustained damage as can be seen on the news, but most houses in Christchurch have damage in some sort of way.
There is panic buying at supermarkets here in our town today as food distribution centres are in Chch and once empty, the shelves will stay that way for a while.
It will be a long time to rebuild the city, but we are a strong and resiliant people and it will happen.
Just keep us in your prayers,
Thanks

CowtownQuilts OFFLINE Posts: 21 Thank you received: 1	Sent mine in today, too, and the postmistress said the same thing - put stamps on the return envelope. So we did! Also, for those of you still waiting on your Tyvek envelopes... I ordered mine on Feb. 3rd, got an email on Feb. 9th that they were on the way, and then I received them Feb. 18th. So, it took about 2 weeks from the time I ordered them until the time I received them.
