Okay, okay… I know we’re not sharing pics here but I just HAD too. These two arrived hugging and I hust can’t stand it! Squeee! I don’t know if maybe the journey frightened them or they just fell asleep snuggled together. :laughing:

I received my strand of prosperity hens from @susieoregon today. They are even better in person—so quirky and cheerful. Love them!

I need to clarify that there is confusion on one of the claims, so until that has cleared the shop is still closed. I will update as soon as the claim gets cleared up. If you all could wait to claim from jillybeans until this is taken care of that would be great! Thanks! :slight_smile:

All is well, her shop is open, you can claim away at will! :slight_smile:

I have all of my sent/receiving tracking numbers loaded into the USPS app so I can keep track of the status of everything quickly. Looks like Monday is going to be a big package day!

Well, the cross stitch I was working on had to be abandoned and started over. But we’re still good because this time I haven’t messed up the pattern! It won’t be ready in time for my shop opening tomorrow, though, so that’s a bit of a bummer.

It can be a surprise you add later. It’s fun to see waves of new things come throughout the swap. :smile:

Everyone cross your fingers for me that this weekend’s house project goes smoothly and quickly - it’s going to determine how much crafting time I have to restock my shop! :grin:
