Thanks Arlene!! I may have to break down and purchase a good chunk like that.

I had to work today so no trip to Joann's. I'll try to follow this thread in case you still need some but I doubt I'll get near any craft store until next week (if then). Hope the more local ladies find what you need.

I ordered the balance from Joanns today. I'll take whatever has already been purchased for me, but don't need any more.
thanks ladies!

Thanks for the update ... hope things are well (or at least well enough).

JUST A REMINDER: There's only a week left to get your registrations/payments in. Please and thank you!

hi guys, not sure if I will be back in time for this one, so just subbing right now

Pat, hope you'll be here but I do have to know by this Sunday for sure. Please and thanks.

Linda ... I have money for you for Bugged &Booties .

That's great, Nancy. You know I was just thinking, though...Sandy hasn't gotten the set to me yet.

ETA: Just heard back from her. She said I will have it sometime tomorrow.

Thanks for the e-mail, Linda. But I'm going to have to pass on this one. My house has been sorely neglected in the preparations for Buffalo and I keep promising DD that once April is over I will concentrate more on wedding stuff! I am hoping that next year I can participate more in these.
Have a good time!

Wish I could join you all for this fun event, but we will be in PA that weekend. Sorry to miss it, as I had such fun at the previous gatherings!
Happy crafting...hope I can make the next one!
Linda B

We'll miss you, Linda and Diane.

I had someone ask about the extra shoebox projects and thought I'd also put it out here: it's one shoebox project but you will be making *double* the usual number. You will be at one table in the morning and a different one in the afternoon. You will move but your project stays behind. Therefore, it will be *very* helpful to have some brief directions because you won't be there in the P.M. to answer questions.

Also, it's not an option; it's required. You will know the number you'll need shortly after the event closes but it usually does take me a day or two to sort things out so please be patient. I will say that you will *not* need a quantity greater than 20. If you make extras, you could always swap with others who don't get to be at a table with your project.

Does that make sense? Anyone else is welcome to chime in to explain further.

Sounds right to me Linda. My check went in the mail today. Thanks!!

Thanks, Wendy.

We were chatting about how you would move us/the projects in the PM. Melissa guessed right!

Yes, we'll just have to be careful when we're eating lunch at the tables.

Everyone should have an email from me about goodie bags. Hope you like the idea!

like the idea=a lot!

Good. Be sure to send your list.

LOVE IT Linda!!! Will send list later tonight.

I like the idea, Linda - you're very brave for taking on that task!!!

Yeah, I hope I'm not biting off more than I can chew.

It will be interesting for sure! Hopefully your local elves can help you pack the goodie bags!

Linda if you need help with the bags sorting or anything let me know. I'm available after work and weekends. (Unless I'm beading)

Thanks, Dana. I will.

Don't forget to send me your list.

sign me up Linda, paypal on its way.

Begging a ride please Nancy.

whooooo, getting to play with my stamping friends again.

so everyone is going to have somewhat different items in their goodie bags, wow, you are a brave girl.

ready to come home to good old NY, too bloody hot here, 90 yesterday with what feels like as much humidity. I can't wait to see my lovely stamping friends.

Yeah, this may be a challenge, Pat. Glad you can make it. Don't worry, it is suitably cool here in NY.

hi Gayla,
question, could we just not add the embelishment to the troop card, but add it to the others??????
cant wait to see you soon ya all

i'm fine w/o an embellishment.

I heard did you get snow last week, my son did so I think you would have, please use up all the snow before I get back.

OK. another question, can it be any shade of blue/red??

Any shade of blue/red will be fine.

Gee, wonder how I spent my e-n-t-i-r-e day?

I'm thinking we won't repeat the personalized goodie bags.

Although I love the idea that I'm going to get a goodie or two that I already know what I can use it for, I don't blame you a bit for not wanting to offer this every swap. (But I certainly do appreciate what you are doing.)

Xpedx in Syracuse is still open! We received a notice that someone is buying/sale pending some of the Xpedx stores and Syracuse is one of them.
