Good News!

WOOOHOOO!  My first attempt to ship work back to their owner in ALASKA went fine!  I was a little worried.  I love using UPS because of their tracking abilities.  BUT shipping to Alaska was very cost prohibited!  So I looked into USPS...at times I've had mixed reviews using them.  BUT this time it was an amazing experience.  I worried because Wanda was on vacation and I worried that they would not be home when her quilts arrived AND I worried that they would be delivered when no one was there.  Don't you love it when a plan comes together?  I mailed her quilts back using Priority Mail with tracking.  OMG they made it home in 3 days!!!!!!!  I was in shock.  Wanda got home the day before and eased my mind by telling me she HAD put a stop on her mail.  So all was good.  I received this message from her last week:

They came out beautifully. I am anxious to get the bindings on this weekend so I can ship them out to the recipients, who will be very surprised when they arrive.

 Thank you for the beautiful job you did on the quilting. I am sure I will be sending more your way in the future, I just have to get some tops done.

You ARE more than Welcome, Wanda.  I totally enjoyed our experience and I hope we can collaborate on more of your tops in the future. 

Wednesday I'm off to a quilting retreat in St. Louis.  I'm excited.  I LOVE these ladies - about 30 in all come to this retreat.  We have a BALL...we sew, we laugh, we giggle, we sew...we totally enjoy each other's company.  So I'll return on Sunday with stories and pictures...I hope you come back next week.
