Happy Monday from NYUP group!
I sent you a message on Feb 9 regarding Traveling Postcards from Around the World #49. Please read it and respond.
Thank you for the Shoo-fly pie postcard as the extra p/c in the Roulette swap. Yes, my entire family is still there in Lancaster. In fact, I will be in Strasburg for the most of July. AND...I am going to B&B's on the 21st, next week. Small world, for sure. Have a great Valentines Day and a happy birthday (coming up).
I updated the rules in The Bargain Boutique and asked that everyone read and sign them. Unfortunately I don't see your name so I had to remove you. If you'd like to rejoin please let me know. Thanks!
Hope it is SEW Special
Wishing you a Merry Christmas and a Happy New Year from the Pennsylvania Swappers group :) Hope all is well since you have not been on for awhile...Charlene
