Update on swap stuff

I know a lot of you are still waiting on your quilts - there are quite a few in transit at the moment, so many of you can expect something squishie in the post very soon. If you have received a quilt recently, please be sure to let me know - there are a few which I will be chasing up soon as it seems like they should surely have reached their new owners by now, even given the slowness of the postal systems at the moment!

There are also a few people who have not yet mailed a quilt. In six instances, I know about this, and am keeping an eye on it - we all know life happens and things like sick children and deaths in the family of course have to come first. There are, however, unfortunately, two people who I have been unable to contact in regard to the quilt they are making. I have tried tonight leaving comments on their blogs one last time (and I do hope nothing is wrong in either of these cases) but it's possible - likely, even - that I am going to need an angel [that is, someone to make an extra quilt for no other return than my eternal gratitude] - I do have one volunteer angel already and would make the other piece myself except I have already angel-ed for this swap for someone who received a very poor quality piece. If you think you might be able to help out, please email me...

If you haven't yet received your mini, feel free to email me and I can let you know whether it is on the way or not - you may, of course, prefer not to know, so it's more of a surprise, and I will be keeping an eye on all the quilts which have been mailed and checking up if they don't seem to arrive in a timely fashion, so you don't have to panic, thinking something has gone astray. There were a LOT of late quilts this time around - which is understandable this time of year, if a little disappointing. That said, there have also been some really lovely pieces made, which I am delighted to see.

I can angel if you need one.

I'd be happy to come up with something for you, as an angel. It won't be a companion for "Believe" though :-)

a very poor quality piece...how humiliating.
