NEARLY AT THE END OF THE EXCHANGE

Hi ladies,our first exchange is nerly ate end.
Only was was lost by post office but a second one was remailed and I hope it will arrive soon to her new owner.
I think now it is late to organize a new one,also because it is nearly christmas time and we are all a bit busy at making presents.
What do you think about making a new one the next year?
perhaps we can start to decide what to do on january or ending january.
Let me know and still sorry for my poor english
bye

Miche'le!!

Hi Miche'le,

I forgot to post to say ornie number 2 is now in the post and winging it's way to you.  Hopefully it will arrive before Christmas but probably not!  I'm really sorry the other one didn't arrive.  I was wondering whether you could contact the customs office where you are to see if they have it for some reason.  I doubt it, but you never know.!

hi ladies

good morning everyones
still 2 ornaments to reach their new homes

is it right?
any news for the moment?

Miche'le

I just wanted to let you know that I am in the middle of stitching you another ornie and get it in the post as soon as I can.  Would you email me your address again please, just so I can check I have it right.  Or Amanda, perhaps you could resend the info if you still have it please? My email is sharonjstevens @ msn dot com

thanks, Sharon x

ANY OTHER NEWS FROM THE OTHER PART OF THE WORLD?

hi ladies,
is there any other news?
Vivian?Do you think I have to start to cross stitching a new ornament?

FINALLY HERE

My friends take the package for me at the post office.
Post man wrote the wrong name,the wrong date...on the advice
and then I discovery it was stopped by the customs!!!!!

In the next exchange perhaps it is better written on the envelope it is a gift with no value.Mine was stopped nearly 2 weeks at customs

I will put a photo as soon as possible
It is fantastic

perhaps it is arrived,fingers cross

Coming back from my job I found an advice in the post box....I hope it will be the ornament.
Tomorrow evening I will try to go to post office to take it
If it will be closed when I arrive at home I will go on thusday morning

fingers cross for me

and how about you ladies?
any news till now?

Just Too Long

I think it has taken just too long now for my ornament to reach its destination, maybe it's got lost, maybe it's been 'acquired'.  Either way I think I might start a new one this afternoon and just hope that while I'm sewing the other one will turn up somewhere.

Hello Ladies....

Just a note to let you all know I am still around. It was a very LONG summer again for me and sure not going to complain about the weather we had here in northern Mn that's for sure! Seems every time I was cruising along good some family thing popped up tho and kept me from things I really wanted to do. (I think we can all relate?)
I see a few are still doing the exchanges and I missed the Christmas Ornie one...poor me! Such FUN to get a package "just for you" in the mail isn't it?

I do hope to become more actively involved again...hopefully in the next exchange that will be coming up!
Hope everyone will have a great holiday season now that winter is on the way.
Take care....Lynn S. in MN.

Getting Anxious

It's a week on and still no sign of the parcel I sent - come on Mr Postman hurry up p-l-e-a-s-e!!!

DO NOT BE WORRY

Miche'le don't be worry about your ornament,it is really a long way from your country to mine...sometimes it takes also 4 weeks so we can have a little patient

Mine is not arrived to my partner too
but it has a long way to do too

and you haven't got yours too Miche'le

I think we can wait at least 1 week again before being worried

Worried Thoughts

I'm starting to worry here.  It's such a long while ago that I posted my ornament exchange and there has been no mention of it.  I wonder what is going on with our mail delivery as I haven't received a parcel either.  Please hurry up Mr Postman.
Miche'le

Shebafudge,

I'm sooooo very happy that you like your ornament and that it got there ok!

Hugs,  Melissa

Melissa - I've received mine!!!!!!!

....and it's absolutely gorgeous.

Thank you, thank you, thank you!!!!!!   It is lovely.  I seriously can't believe you haven't corded before, your cording is so neat that I would have thought it was shop bought.

Can't wait to get my tree up now so I can hang it.   Thanks again!

Getting Worried

I thought mine would have arrived by now so I am getting a little worried that it doesn't appear to have done so. Hope it's not lost somewhere on the way!

hallo everyone

Hi stitchers!
everything fine?any news?
12 days are passed trough and I think our ornaments are still travelling across seas and oceans!
really a long way to do some of them...

I know it is still a bit early to ask but ...
do you like making a new exchange when this one is complete?
bye and have a nice day

Ornament Received!

Late yesterday I recieved my GORGEOUS Hardanger ornament from Laurie.  Just take a look! My picture doesn't do it justice!

I've never had anything made in the hardanger style before and it's just LOVELY!  I've always wanted to learn to do Hardanger and this just cements the deal!    Thank you Laurie for this beautiful ornament!  I will treasure it always!
