Comment: I finally had the opportunity to open your letter and I will absolutely be replying to it!!! I love that you collect typewriters. I would love to see a picture sometime! Having nurse friends is awesome!!! I almost cried at the tuck-ins you included. I've wanted to try a Calm Strip and I love the one you included. I really, really love the Strength tarot card... it made me think of my dad (he was also a Leo). Thank you from the bottom of my heart.

Comment: Hi Bean! I just got your swap in this morning's mail. I love the envelope you created; it's really cool with my name like that! I have to tell you that the stickers and the quote you included were absolutely perfect for me today. We are going through a difficult time right now with some friends, and I was able to share the quote with them and show them the stickers. All of it really speaks to our current situation, and crazily enough, I feel like God spoke to us through the happy mail you sent me. Thank you.

Comment: Thank you for the letter and extra tuck-ins. I don't mind reading you rant. I'm definitely a ranter (autocorrect is telling me that's not a word) myself. It's so annoying when a supervisor won't do anything about a troublesome coworker. Does that make it the coworker's fault or the supervisor's? It makes you wonder. I'm glad you got out of that toxic situation. I think you are a saint for being able to provide nursing care for your mother-in-law and anyone else for that matter. I'm definitely not made out for that type of career.

So amazingly delicate. I am continually humbled by the gorgeous things that arrive in my mailbox. I'd go on and on, but that would mean that I would have to find my thesaurus to come up for more words for amazing, beautiful, incredible and simply awesome! Thank you!

Your package arrived with the cancellation running down under your return address, so all but one of the awesome stamps you used were uncancelled. Many thanks for all the wonderful things you sent - a mail artist's treasure trove. Also, the cooking magazine from 1913 has many curious articles I've started to read. You're an awesome swapper! Stay cool as the summer warms up, and I'll see you in the mail.

Comment: Thanx for the beautiful Zine - and what a fabulous idea! I was contemplating to write a story and illustrate it with stamps but thought that it will be hard to find the matching stamps. You had a much better idea in using the stamps like a storydice! I will keep that idea in my mind for the next postal-themed zine for sure!

Comment: Wow!!! I am so glad that I got you for my partner!!! I loved the entire kit. First of all, hello in Reno! We will be there a week from Monday passing through as well drive to Seattle. O.k.... so... I have to tell you that the packaging for your kit was amazing!!! Are you selling this kit on Etsy? If not, you should! It was beautiful. I loved how you packaged it in the grocery store sales circular.... and then the awesome waxy brown paper with the paper topper..... so professional looking!! It was very beautiful!!! I love the sample zines that you sent. My favorite was the bacon one and I love all the ready to use templates..... love the Fill it series!!! Your instructions were well written and the ephemera and stickers you made were so cool!!! I really loved that you made the mini book using the page with the map of Mexico!!! What an awesome sweet touch!!!!! Thanks sooooo much!!! You are such a generous swapper. I hope that you like the kits that you receive. It seems that people really tried to make nice kits. Happy swapping!!!! I hope to get more of your zines in the future. I am always up for private swaps.
Response: So glad you had fun with & enjoyed this package!! It was a lot of fun to put together for me, too! The brown wax paper bags are from the grocery store, aren't they great? The brand is called "Natural Value" :)

Comment: Your postcard is beautiful. I love it. Thanks so much. I can't believe they charged you so much to mail it though. Sorry.
Response: The cost of mailing my fabric postcards is always subject to how the employees of our post office are feeling that day, haha! I really don't mind, though - they're rarely over $0.62. I'm glad you liked it! I had fun trying out a different quilt block on that one <3

It's obvious that you put a lot of care into this package, I really appreciate everything. I will put all these fun things to good use! I hope I get you as a swap partner again! :D
Response: I'm so glad it all arrived safely! I love making & sending those envies, but I am always worried that someone will 'tip in' and take something along the way! mostly, I think the postal employees are thankful for a little eye candy ;) and you're very welcome - it's not hard to put a package together for someone who likes all the same junk as you ;)

Comment: Amazing beautiful piece!!!! Even my husband (who wouldn't notice if pigs were flying around the house) said "Wow that's really pretty". Thanks so much!!! P.S. I am really glad that the doll quilt was a big hit. WendyB
Response: Oh, I'm so glad you like it!! I had a lot of fun making it, it was a nice challenging pattern! My husband (the same type as yours, hehe) thought it was too frilly and was glad to see it leave our house, haha!! <3

Comment: Bean, The box was lovely and my daughter really liked everything. I tell you those Princess stickers and a star box with bling, what girl wouldn't love those! :) Thanks for everything!!
Response: Wow, that was fast! We're so glad your daughter enjoyed the package! Annabel had a lot of fun decorating the little box with as many gems as she could fit on top (her Daddy helped her paint it, but she did all the decoration herself!) :)

Comment: Woo Hoo!! I received my vintage swap package today and was so excited to open it. THANK YOU for putting together such a thoughtful swap tailored to my profile. It was stuffed with things I love. The vintage craft books have some great ideas I want to try out. The handmade pot holder goes great in my kitchen & the doily will be perfect for my little girl's room we're redecorating in aqua, red & white. My daughter was extremely excited too with everything and promptly darted off with the vintage baby blanket. :-) The baby sweater is gorgeous and I can't wait to dress my new little one in it. The black purse has a fabulous shape and I'm looking forward to using it out some evening. Again, my utmost THANKS for a splendid swap. You made me smile & squeal with delight. :-)
Response: You're welcome!! We share a lot of the same interests and it was a lot of fun to shop for you - I'm so happy you like the things I made for you, too! <3
