A couple of days ago I received the second/first fob from Leigh (Yoyo) - she wrote about it in this post. I'm sooo happy! It's really beautiful. She also sent me a wonderful 28 ct Mushroom Lurex Lugana, which I'll be surely using for my next projects and a fantastic self-made postcard. Thank you sooo much, Yoyo!!!

Just to keep everyone here posted, I am in the middle of moving from the west coast to the east coast of Canada and will be missing from these exchanges for a little while. As I am driving across Canada with our trailer we will be a while. It makes me sad that I might miss some exchanges before xmas but alas "c'est la vie".
I have had excellent exchanges and look forward to continuing to meet and exchange with other stitchers. Thanks for your patience...vivian

First, let me apologize to the group for my long absence and silence....I DID let Sharon know what was going on, but it appears from the posts on the site that she has been AWOL as well...

Since Mid May I have been experiencing very severe migraines that have been causing episodes of seizures and passing out. I am on very strong medications that knock me out for long periods of time. When I am awake, I'm not very alert and unable to work on any cross-stitch or needlework for more than a minute or two.

On top of that, my computer crashed and my DH just got it up and running again. It needed a complete overhaul.

Ronel, I did get your very lovely Floss tag and goodies. I'm sorry I did not get on the system right away to let you know. I had intended to mail you a thank you card, but my ever so helpful daughter, threw out the envelope with your address while I was sleeping when she was doing some cleaning for me.

I just got my Floss tag in the mail today.....Normally, I would not say now who my partner is until they got the package, but because it is sooo late, I'll go ahead and spill the beans....this way, if she doesnt get it by the end of the weekend (I overnighted it), I can get started on another one for her right way!....Mine is for Lynn in MN....I think I saw on her BLOG that she will be out of town for the weekend, so it should be waiting for her when she gets home.

Again, I'm sorry.....but the migraines were not something I had planned for..

Myra sent the most beautiful floss tag. And floss! She's going to post a photo since I don't have a camera. It's a tea cup and lavender. Stitched one over one! It's absolutely gorgeous. The first one she made for me didn't arrive, so she stitched this one and sent it, I'm touched that she went to so much work for me. Thank you so much Myra. I love it!


I'm still waiting to see if the one I stitched and sent a long time ago ever arrived.

It’s very late here, and I’m really tired and ready to go to bed. But I can’t rest until I make this final effort to contact all the members of Tiny Treasures Exchange.

30 Members have Joined TTE, Too. Thanks to all of you!

I’ve emailed invites to 24 more.

For 20 members for whom I was unable to discover an email, I’ve posted a comment to their blog asking them to check here.

That leaves 13 members without blogs (or I am unable to post to their blogs because it requires me to join before I can post).

So, I am appealing to all of you. Perhaps you had one of these members as an exchange partner – perhaps you know them from another venue. If you have contact information, would you please send them the info about TTE, Too?

Thank-you all for your support!

Just checking to see if the floss tag has arrived yet? i am starting to get real concerned as this is the 2nd package that has been sent out to you and not made it there.

thanks! Karen

While Sharon is out-of-pocket, please hop over to Tiny Treasures Exchange, Too, my little effort to keep this group going.

(Has no one heard from Sharon? I'm sooo worried)

and sorry, sorry, sorry.

Eileen, I've got your floss tag a lot time ago. But, I have to say, I dont't know, where I've done the envelope.
It received to me, when I wasn't at home for a few days.
It was a really fine surprise for me and lovely things.

But again sorry, I have totally forgotten to do MY floss tag.
I have send a card to my partner, when I was at holiday last weeks and I hope she forgive me.
Next days I will send it to her.

Your/Our Tiny Treasure Group is really great and very interesting for me here in germany.
I can see so more new things in your blogs and learn another things aswell.

many greetings to you all from germany

Hi all, over 20 of you have replyed either to me or on the blog, so far it seems the facebook idea isn't to popular. I have to admit I know nothing about it so can't comment on it. The one thing I like about the blog is the limit of 100 members, I don't think having more than that is a good idea, its to hard to keep a check on them all, and as we have seen on here some members have dropped out, with out even letting us know. I run a Yahoo group so have some experience of bad stitchers and lost stitching etc. One member suggeted that there should be 2 moderators, so if one drops out the other can carry on and will know all the members details etc. If we do this they will have to get on with each other and agree on how to run the group. Someone said about people being away on holiday this month so maybe we should wait till the end of the month to give them a chance to reply. Also the idea to let ech member choose what she wants to stitch may be a good idea, we could put a list on here and then you could pick what you want to stitch for your partner from the list, as some of us aren't happy doing one thing but maybe really good at another thing.
Anyway these are all just ideas, as I said about 20 have replyed but it says we can't take any more members so that could mean there are 100 members (or Sharon could have decided she didn't want any more I don't know) but I think we should wait to get more replys, I might go on some peoples blogs and leave a message there that way we could get more replys.

Hi Ladies well we don't seem to have got any further with what we are going to do with this group only a few of you are posting and the ones we want answers from aren't posting at all. Could all members post a answer as to what they would like to happen with this group? If you want you can e mail me on meat@theeyrie.fsnet.co.uk and I'll collect all the answers and let you know on this blog what we all vote to do. If you want to do another exchange let me know what it is also. Until all members answer we can't go forward with another exchange. I think its safe to say that the members who haven't answered aren't going to now.
Conny was my partner, and i never heard from her if she got my fob, did anyone receive from Conny? if no one did I'd say she ddoesn't want to be in this group, and the same goes for the other ladies who haven't answered. We can't wait forever for them to answer.
Anyway thats all I can suggest, if you all want to do another exchange e mail me, and I'll gather all the info and post it here so we can all see what we want to do.

I know some of you are aware the troubles Aury & I had with communication and postal problems. But, I must say, it was worth the wait. She stitched me this beautiful floss ring and attached a skein of gorgeous colored thread. She was very patient through the process and I feel relieved all has been worked out and SO WORTH IT! This design looks exactly like something I would have stitched for myself. I received the package last week but left to go on vacation and only returned last night. I wanted to make sure everyone got to see the work she put into it. Thanks, Aury!
