Comment: Thank you so much. I love both of these bags. The grocery store bag is wonderful with its heavy bottom and nice and big. And the clothes bag is really great. I am definitely going to be using these bags. (BTW - Around here there is a Morrison's Cafeteria where a lot of older people like to go eat because they can get a nice hot meal that is not too expensive. :-0 )
Response: pleased you liked themx

Hey there! I'm Janis1967...well, my user name is JannieB, but my name is Janis & I was born in 1967. When I saw your name I thought it was cool that we were so similar. Smiles!!

thank you for my random stuffed envie from the -ssh- group tag. :) the envelope was open when i received it and i am wondering if you sent more than the note, the notecard, and the lipstick pen/eraser set? because the customs form reads "jewelry" and i wasn't sure if something fell out. :( that would be sad. thank you for sending either way though!

hi kay i know what you mean about cutting fabric it breaks my heart as well,especially if its pretty. i am looking forward to the penpal swap,as i love writing letters janx

Kay on Aug 1, 2010:

Hi Janis,

Greeting from New Zealand.

I am just snooping checking out participants in my I will take a risk Newbie penpal swap. I like to know who is out there in the real world.

I am sort of new to quilting too. I started years ago but haven't done much, mainly because I just love fabric too much and hate cutting it up for patchwork. How silly is that? I have only started card making, and I absolutely stink at it but don't care because it is fun.

I also like teddy bears and have too many lurking about the house.

Best wishes, Kay
