yummmmm - i'm so looking forward to seeing what ends up in my goodie bag

My girlfriend, Colleen has finished her 41 blocks. I'm calling them 'Strawberries and Cream' . My second set is done. 'Chocolate Pudding'.

Numbers - out of 123 slots
I have 51 notifications of postage.
14 confirmed sightings (arrivals). But this is likely to change within a couple of days now Lorna - hopefully - is safely back and able to pick up her post (if she can get through our snow - it usually totally mucks up UK because we never expect it as routine winter weather and we don't get much practise with how to deal with it, because it usually disappears fairly quickly - within a week or so.

i agree - yummmmmmmmm - love strawberry shortcake

Those 'strawberry shortcake' look very appetizing Brenda!

"Strawberry Shortcake" is on its way across the pond! I was able to do the initial postage and customs form on the computer, but it didn't like me trying to do a customs form with a US address for the receiver! I filled one in while I was waiting in line at the post office and off they went. I can't wait to see what comes back

Lorna is supposed to return from her Washington, DC trip Feb 6. I'm sure she'll be checking in with her reel count in a few days once she gets back on schedule.

Thanks again to the sorting ladies!

Love the red Sandra!

Rosemay, the attic windows idea was actually my first thought for an alternative setting for the blocks. That's probably what I'll do. I would do 6 x 7, which would hold 41 reels and then have an empty spot just waiting for my next purchase!

I hope they take a while to come back to me, since I have so many projects to be finished! When they arrive I will want to drop everything and play with them. It's okay if they take their time.

Rosemary - Has someone stepped up to the plate and taken the spot you were offering?

Also, do you have the majority of reels yet, or are there still many on their way? (hint for numbers...?)

Dear Rosemary;

I am jealous of your outfit! I especially love your hat & coat . I take it this would be a spring dress ?

Fellow Wot Rott

Not sure if my post got in here, but I put my "citrus salad" in the mail on Thursday. Looking forward to the return.

I like the first and last best too. Roseary's ideas for the attic window and thread box are really good ones. Its really making me think about whaat I will actally do with my spools. HMMMM.

Rita, I like the look of your first & last ideas, and the bird houses & birds are fun too.

Here is an idea - how about putting them in 'attic windows' sashing & pretend it is your thread box?
