Betty, it was me!

I didn't take a pic before I sent it. But, what I can do is go back to where I got it and take a pic of it there. So, if you can hold out until Saturday, I'll go back.

I also sent you some FQ's, and a roll of 1" strips of patriotic prints.

Susie, wish it were just fabric I am addicted to? Peso many craft loves that there is always a sale I must get to. Lol

Kansas City (Joyce), MO(Zone 5a)

What a great package, and while I was admiring yours my dogs go off which means someone is coming up the driveway and guess who it is, the mail woman! And guess what she has but a red white and blue package for me from Liz, aka "lizrainey". Now this package is stamped fragile and is taped up like Fort Knox, to finally get the paper off to the box and guess what taped up like Fort Know...lol. DH was laughing at me. But OMG when I got it open there were the greatest presents!

1. a red white and blue flower pot looks like a mug but actually hangs. That is too cool, never saw one that hangs.
2. a red white and blue bird house and I love it. Wish the barn swallows would move in there instead of my porch roof... lol love the bird house
3. cupcake holders and pics to put in them. How did you know my DGD is coming to visit Thursday and Friday! We will have so much fun making these.
4. two cute flags to put in flower pots

Liz thank you so much I love everything. Sorry had to take pics on the stairs since my buddies package is scattered all over my dining room table.. It will be done my Monday.

Posted as fast as I could so you would know everything arrived safe and sound.
Perfect timing I just got out all my previous RWB swaps from years gone by.

I had to rush to get the box out before my trip.

thunder thank you so much! I love the shirts and everything else I will be back tonight to post pictures, I cant find where I have my camera packed right now lol

Otway, OH(Zone 6b)

I received a wonderful box from Julie today. She sent me a red, white, and blue tee shirt, I really needed that, a hanging butterfly, seeds and a beautiful tray that she made in pottery class. I have taken pictures and will try to get them on here when I can figure it out and see also what our weather is going to do.

Julie, thanks you so much, as I have to work the 4th of July, I will wear it to work. Love everything.

Julie, so sorry that I forgot to add the dish towel as I had already hung it on my stove, thanks for it also.

Anxious to see photo's, lovely box of goodies
I also in a previous swap received a piece of pottery fron julie, have it on one of the mantles

I have the tray at the center of my coffee table. I will need to move it when Noah is here as he likes to play with everything. The pictures are on my phone but don't have enough service to try and do the pictures.

Ocean Springs, MS

Kathy, you are so very welcome! Glad you liked everything! Wish now that I would have made a tray for myself. Lol

I'm still enjoying my time in TN. Weather might get bad later, but it's gonna break this heat wave!

Everyone have a good day!

(Linda Kay) Amarill, TX(Zone 7a)

That is an awesome box of patriotic gifts. You need to show us how to do the tye dye.


Happy birthday Joyce. I hope you had a great say.

Sure hope your special day was perfect in every way

(thunder)Wildwood, FL(Zone 9a)

glad you like it Liz, hope shirts are good sizes. you can share with Kenny if you want LOL ^_^

Hubs does the tie dye, He won't let me anywhere near it. worried the dust ( he wears a mask when he mixes dyes) will bother my asthma. It probably would.

I know you have to wash shirts first, then soak them in soda ash. then apply dies.... different folds and ties make different designs... then let them sit for 8 - 12 hours. rinse, wash, wash again, and sometimes again depending on colors.

hard to find 100% cotton shirts, that also have 100% cotton threads. sometimes the threads don't dye....

Ocean Springs, MS

Great box, Liz! I do love tie-dye! Used to do it with the kids all the time! They loved it!

Staying in TN until Tuesday! My son will be home then, thank God! But I'm excited to get home and decorate for the 4th! :)

(Linda Kay) Amarill, TX(Zone 7a)

Would everyone check the top thread, and make sure I have your names correct as received? I have *** for those that have received a box. If it is not correct let me know.



I got a box from Joyce today, she said more is coming. But I love what I got so much. I got a beautiful eagle wind spinner, a precious handmade card from her Granddaughter, a beautiful hand towel, and an awesome oven mitt. Hubby saw that and said Oh how nice!

Thanks Joyce for the awesome gifts.
