Mary Beth Posted March 31, 2010 Report Share Posted March 31, 2010 Well, you know...it is spring time in Missouri and that means we are in tornado season. No tornados yet...but the wind is blowing like 25 miles per hours today. My stencils were delivered but I had locked the screen door before I left the house so it wouldn't be down the street when we got home tonight. The mail lady lifted the welcome mat and put my big package of stencils under the mat....package is about 24" x 24". I came in the house, checked the tracking to see when I would get my delivery, it said it was processed in KC today. I came upstairs, opened the front door to let fresh air in, and laying on the lawn was my stencil delivery!! Holy cow....I almost lost $35 worth of stencils!!!Yikes!!

Quilting Heidi Posted April 1, 2010 Report Share Posted April 1, 2010 Don't forget you can only use one for the stencil throw down...have you decided which one? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Mary Beth Posted April 1, 2010 Author Report Share Posted April 1, 2010 I know...we have to be very, very selective and find the one with the most design elements. I have to sit down and think about it very carefully. Of course it will help if I can find a quilt to put it on Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Primitive1 Posted April 1, 2010 Report Share Posted April 1, 2010 Mary Beth, She is doing so much better since receiving those nutrients via her IV. She had not been sick since Fri morning but has thrown up a few times yesterday and today. She has been eating though and I think her stomach just is not used to food after going for 3 wks without any. We are optimistic! Thanks for asking!

Mary Beth Posted April 1, 2010 Author Report Share Posted April 1, 2010 Yeah!! Maybe she will be okay now. That hyperemisis is a horrible thing and it makes us as moms feel helpless. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Mercedes Posted April 2, 2010 Report Share Posted April 2, 2010 Any chance we could get a link to Stensource so I can take a peak? Stencils are hard to find items these days. Thanks...Mercedes Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
