Finish up Friday...

Wouldn't that be nice?  Let's say I'm ALMOST finished with the last of the BB quilts.  One more row to finish and then I have to go back and fix some areas where the top thread is knotted on the back ( not by my choice).  The tension can't seem to make up it's mind... it's fine for awhile but then it starts acting up again. 

The other day I received two patterns from Java House Quilts... one is one that I ordered ( a frog pattern called You Must Be Croaking) and the second one was one I didn't order - Shell We Dance.  The second one was a mistake... I had ordered Shell Shelters (try saying that one fast three times lol).  I immediately sent off a message, but it was through their website and I didn't hear back, nor did I have anything to show that my message had gone through.  I expected they would send an email of some sort.  After not hearing anything, I sent another one yesterday.  Guess what showed up in my mailbox today - with an apology.... yep! 

I spent a couple of hours this morning cleaning off the table next to my desk, my desk and then going through trash bags ( including ones that my hubby brought back in from our dumpster) because I couldn't find the Shell We Dance pattern or the envelope it came in.  I thought for sure that Java House would want me to send it back.  Well, I didn't find it until after the mail came and there was no note asking for it in with the correct pattern.  So I thought, whew! because I didn't know how to explain that it disappeared - mailing envelope and all ( minus the frog pattern).  As I sat here at my desk, I got to peeking into one of the vertical cubbies where I stash stuff... and I pulled a couple of things out  - like those annoying Medicare and You books that they insist on mailing to BOTH of us ( same last name at same address, - oh send them each one anyway).... well, guess what I found.... YEP!  the pattern still in the envelope.

I also received a partial shipment from Quilt in a Day earlier this week.  It was supposed to be an entire shipment, but somehow the packer completely missed the top item(s).  I sent a message that day (It must have been Monday) and on Wed. I received a message that the remainder of my purchase would be shipped out the next day - it should be here Monday. 

It's been a long day here.... I'm ready to go crawl into bed and do some reading.

take care....
