I recently got a package with a beautiful bow... I wanted to see the gift but I just couldn't open it. I decided if I cut the bow on the bottom I could open the box from there and see the gift and then put it back together and tape the ribbon like it had never been disturbed!Sinta Reneehttps://www.blogger.com/profile/10946842748034667873noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-1282341523536457596.post-35515617482033346572012-02-28T10:39:58.136-06:002012-02-28T10:39:58.136-06:00Your block was so beautiful that I didn't even...Your block was so beautiful that I didn't even notice the turned piece!

Love that you discuss the different fabrics that you use for a pattern and show closeups of the quilting. Joe from ThimbleCreek gave you a mention in his latest newsletter and I'm so glad I followed through and checked out your blog. <br />From another Illinois quilter.<br />jamAnonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-1282341523536457596.post-55479026438360754502012-02-28T10:10:26.409-06:002012-02-28T10:10:26.409-06:00Wouldn't it be wonderful if everything is life...Wouldn't it be wonderful if everything is life came wrapped that way :) Love your latest projects Thelmas!Shelleyhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/05479013420526089505noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-1282341523536457596.post-30358675011013195832012-02-28T07:49:58.389-06:002012-02-28T07:49:58.389-06:00Thelma, I missed the issue with your block and I l...Thelma, I missed the issue with your block and I looked at it for a long time because I though it was so lovely. I'll blame it on my quirky eyes, LOL. I take medication for Peripheral Neuropathy that messes with my vision so I'll just use that as an excuse *wink*. I'm glad others caught it for you, before it got all the way to the quilter. Now to that gorgeous fat quarter bundle from Country Sampler...Nicole and I had a nice conversation about the packaging of our online fabric orders. I am one of those who agrees the little bit of time and effort it takes to package our purchases neatly and attractively speaks of good customer service and shows that they care about their business image and really appreciate our business. It also generates word of mouth business...just like your beautiful bundle from Country Sampler. I will certainly be checking them out very soon. Shabby Fabrics, Bunny Hill and Country Sampler are just a few that make our purchases look like a lovely gift. It can create problems though, as you have pointed out, they make them so pretty we don't want to open them LOL. Then too, when I go to brick and mortar shop, I expect my purchases to be neatly bagged or packaged. I went to one adorable little quilt shop in Wyoming a couple of years ago. The ladies were delightful and helpful and it was just a really nice little shop. I picked up some yardage and a few fat quarters, then was stunned when they didn't even fold the yardage, they just waded it up and pushed it into a bag that was too small to hold it all. I picked it up and went over to the cutting table, dumped the bag out and folded my own fabric, asked for a bigger bag and then asked if I could get the shop owners phone number...the lady that did the 'bagging' was the owner!!! I was speechless! (which doesn't happen often, LOL) Hugs...Stitched With Prayerhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/16223099347614174169noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-1282341523536457596.post-33008613552034178902012-02-28T07:23:46.303-06:002012-02-28T07:23:46.303-06:00It's so easy to overlook a wayward block somet...It's so easy to overlook a wayward block sometimes. I just did the same thing, but fortunately found it when I was laying out the blocks to take a picture of them. I did have a wayward block in a quilt once and it wasn't discovered until the quilter got hold of it. I told her to leave it, and luckily it's on the side of the quilt that I don't see when it's on the bed, but it still bothers me.<br /><br />Wonderful bundle, I may just have to have them do some shopping for me sometime. They put together a great package.Debhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/00792171420098351093noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-1282341523536457596.post-77096164238246151602012-02-28T07:00:16.745-06:002012-02-28T07:00:16.745-06:00What gorgeous packaging!

I often take a quick picture of a block when I lay it out to piece, and will notice a piece that needs to be turned on the picture, before I notice it on the real thing. Wierd, I guess. And I am all about presentation when I receive an order. I love it when an online order arrives with a hand written note of thanks!Lesleyhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/06156111116284534132noreply@blogger.com
