MLJQuilts Posted December 31, 2007 Report Share Posted December 31, 2007 Oh Yes, Count me in. You have my address from the secret Santa listing. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
lizziesgirl Posted December 31, 2007 Report Share Posted December 31, 2007 Teresa, I\'m starting to get a complex here. I\'ve signed up twice and I still don\'t see my name on the list. Please add me, I promise I will partitcipate. Putting items in a box is less time consuming then making blocks. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
chickenscratch Posted December 31, 2007 Author Report Share Posted December 31, 2007 Barb, I think that the 15th of January would be a good day for the first mailing. I will let sign up go until then, but I\'m trying to get the ones who will wait until the last minute to sign up. I still have to type up the correct list, with correct addresses, and attach it to the inside of the journal that goes in the box. Sheryl and Pamela, I added you both. Sorry. I thought I had done it.

Judi Posted January 1, 2008 Report Share Posted January 1, 2008 So - do you think we will still just have one box? Or split the names into 2 different lists or rounds? Lots of people signed-up, thats good! Should be fun!! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
chickenscratch Posted January 1, 2008 Author Report Share Posted January 1, 2008 I\'ll leave it up to you gals. We could always start 1 box at the beginning of the list going forward andanother box at the end of the list going backwards Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Melora Posted January 2, 2008 Report Share Posted January 2, 2008 I think one box at the bottom of the list and one going out at the top is a GRET idea. On another vote, my choice would be for a white background fabric. Thanks for doing this Melora Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
ramona-quilter Posted January 2, 2008 Report Share Posted January 2, 2008 Teresa, I think I qualify as one the late-comers. I would like to participate in the white elephant. I know you did birthday blocks so if you still have that list, my address is the same. This does sound like fun. With this many names on the list, a single box circulating may take a while to get thru the list. I like the idea of: --2 boxes (1 from the top of the list and one from bottom or the middle of the list) -- The list for that box. I think it might get confusing if we choose to whom we send the box. A simple list to check-off is easier. --A journal with dates and comments on what you took out and put in would be fun. Like a story about your white elephant, how you got it, what it is used for, etc. --Maybe we should ask Tad to setup a separate chat item for the White Elephant so we can corral the comments and photos that will get posted. What do you think about that? I\'m ok with shipping outside the country, stick me on the list where you need me. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
chickenscratch Posted January 2, 2008 Author Report Share Posted January 2, 2008 Linda, I\'ve already typed up a list to put in the journal, so everybody knows exactly where to send the box next. And I\'ve already written the guidelines on the first page of the journal. I have about 6 or 7 things picked out so far to put in the box and get it in the mail next week. just waiting for the last minute sign ups. I\'ll add you to the list.

Saundra Posted January 3, 2008 Report Share Posted January 3, 2008 Teresa, I am a late sign-up. I was a part of the Secret Santa so you have my address. Again, you will have to tell me where to go to see the Journal. Saundra.. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
chickenscratch Posted January 5, 2008 Author Report Share Posted January 5, 2008 The journal will be placed in the box (now boxes) as they move around the country. Last chance to get signed up for this. We want to get it in the mail the end of next week. There are 47 names on the list right now, I hope. Please check to see if I have your first and last name; and make sure you have sent me your address. I\'m going to start fixing this list over the weekend.

DB Posted January 16, 2008 Report Share Posted January 16, 2008 Teresa, Is this on it\'s way? Are we doing the one box or two? I\'m already starting to put stuff aside that I can\'t use. I already have Quilt Pro software, a couple of quilt books, a pantograph and fabric to go in the box. DB Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

DB Posted January 17, 2008 Report Share Posted January 17, 2008 Teresa, Please don\'t think I was rushing you. I am just trying to guesstimate when the box might be coming my way. I know that there are a couple of weeks coming up this spring when I might be away and I don\'t want the box to sit at the post office. I am planning (joy o joy) to start taking my oldest son, a HS junior, around to check out colleges, possibly overnighting it at hotels so we can check out several schools in that area. He has no clue to where he wants to go. Just to round out the festivities I will also be dragging his younger brothers along. Their consolation prize will be getting to use the pool at the hotel in the evening. As a single parent it\'s up to me to take on this task. I, of course, as a quiltaholic, will be mapping out where the quilt stores are along the way. DB Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
chickenscratch Posted January 17, 2008 Author Report Share Posted January 17, 2008 dianne, It\'s okay. I don\'t even remember how far down the list your name was (or up the alternate list). I will get a final list posted tonight. Please check to be sure your name appears, if it is supposed to. I will mail an upside down copy to the last person on the original list, so the second box can start there and work it\'s way around. Eventually everybody will have received both boxes. Keep this in mind when packing your things into the box. Don\'t put all your goodies in one box and then sell yourself short when the second box arrives. Also, since we are doing two boxes, why don\'t we say each person will put 3-5 things in the box; that way we have enough for both boxes. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
