Comment: Sorry for the late rate - it got lost in my email! I love your photos! I especially love the diving duck and the beautiful woodpecker! It looks just like a downy or hairy woodpecker (identical, but the hairy is just a little bigger), but the head looks almost like a pileated woodpecker (almost prehistoric). I love woodpeckers! Thanks for sharing!
Comment: The photos you sent are lovely! The colors are brilliant - except that I love those you made black and white, too! Thanks for the postcard backs!
Comment: So much fun to read your answers!I find that questions make up a big part of who we are. Answering creatively is not always necessary, but always appreciate more than a yes or not or one word answer. Thanks so much!
Comment: Great set of photos! I especially love the landscapes in Cloudland Canyon. It makes me wish I were there on that trail! And the Woodpecker!!! Oh my, he's big. Do you know what kind it is? Thanks for the thought you put into this swap. I enjoyed it!
Response: Thanks! I believe it was a red bellied woodpecker. They are quite common in the GA mountains. I think he looks so big due to the telephoto lense because he was pretty high up the tree.
Comment: I received your "E"-"F" Zentangle today. I love it. Ennies is my favorite pattern so far. I still have a hard time with the curved patterns like Finny's Florets. Thanks too for the cutouts and photos of your cats. Just looking at them makes me smile. We're getting new kitten tonight! Thanks again.
Comment: Holy cow. I got your ATC's and thought, "She's a newbie at this?! These are GREAT!" Thanks so much for the extras, too, and for putting that website in your note--it's a real help!
Response: thank you... I started tangling about 9 months ago... the key to my success is a sakura micron 01... it's very fine and once i got over the shakyness factor, it works really well.
Comment: What a wonderful zentangle! Your control and pen work is excellent. Also, thank you for the wonderful extra package of beads. The can already envision several pairs of earrings and more! Your a great swap buddy.
Comment: Thank you so much for sending these out twice! And thank you for the extras; did you notice the post mark on the postcard piece was PA? :) Thank you for all the extras. This was an extra special package and if I could give you five hearts I would! :D
Comment: Thank you so much for your heart tangles they are really lovely! You said you like the simplicity of the single heart while I love the touch of color in the other one. Happy swapping!
Comment: Thank you for the wonderful swap! I love the scarf, can't wait for the cold days to wear it. The little bag is cute, it's perfect for lunch. :)
Comment: Thanks for sending TWO zentangled ATCs! It's really interesting to see one in black and white and then one colored in. I love them both - you did a really good job on them! Thanks again!
Comment: Thank you so much for the beautiful ATC, I love it. The colors are awesome. You did a beautiful job, I'm jealous! I wish I could be that creative :) Thanks for the extras too! Take care, happy swapping.

Comment: Pure delight. That's what this package made me feel--from the moment I cut away the tape on the box and the wonderful smell of lavender poured out, I was giddy! You seriously couldn't have picked out things that suited me better. Thank you for a VERY happy mail package. I will be putting those darling owls in my studio where I can see them while I work--my boys LOVED the one with glasses. Thanks again. -Rachel
Comment: wow...what a package.......all my favorites, thank you so very much.....
My kids were snatching and grabbing and fighting over them........but I won! LOL
Comment: Kat, your package was wonderful! I loved the journal and reading about your life. I'm a December baby too :o) The extras are great, I think the sinus salts will prove very useful since I often suffer from sinus problems. And the cushion is lovely. Thank you so much. You deserve a zillion hearts.
Comment: Thanks for all the wonderful stuff. Unfortunately, the mug broke in the mail but everything else made it just fine. We used some of the same things in our packages. I guess great minds think alike! :-)
Comment: I think this is the best package I have ever gotten since I joined. It showed that you looked at my profile and really thought about what to send. Thank you so much!
Comment: Interesting list but special thanks, and a heart, for the neat fabric. I love the blue with gold! and my granddaughter collects toads so I'll find something to do with that fabric for her.
Comment: Wow, thank you so much! I opened the package and kept saying "wow" to everything. I love it! That seashell bracelet is beautiful, I'm already wearing it.
Comment: Katherine, I'm giving you a 5+ and a heart....what beautiful book thongs and I love the bracelet! What a surprise.
It is done in one of my very favorite colors. ") sharon/inkybru

Comment: Thanks for the extra goodies. One edge of your orange frame had fallen off, but I was able to glue it back on. Great use of color in your cards.
Comment: The yarn is absolutely beautiful and the scarf is so very soft ~ I'll enjoy using this yarn for my winter knitting projects.
Your babies are sweet.
Comment: Katherine, thank you for an AWESOME box! I loved everything and you took so much care and effort in wrapping it and choosing things I love!! If I could give two hearts I would! lol
Thanks again and again!!

Comment: I am just giddy - thank you so much! I got home tonight from a very stressful day and it was so lovely to have a box waiting for me, and such wonderful treats in it. I keep going from item to item and grinning, they are so perfect! I am petting the yarn right now, and the bracelets are gorgeous. Thank you, thank you so much - you really brightened my week!
Comment: Hello Kat, Thank you for the very creative and well-thought out Pencil ATC. Also, thank you for the pencils. Sorry I missed you the first time I did ratings but I am here to correct that today. Happy Swapping and I hope we meet again on another swap.
