SECRET SISTER UPDATE!

It is really difficult to do this without letting the cat out of the bag, but I'll do my best. (The Secret Sister project this time really is a secret!)
So the international postal systems have been busy and contributions have so far been received from Canada, Ireland, USA (x2), Australia and France.
Well done everyone!

This gets more intriguing as we go along. I'm feeling really bad that I am not a part of it this time. When will you let the rest of us in on the secret?

I think it is safe to say that all is safely gathered in now - especially as the fabric delivery has arrived. Now to get on with stage 2.

Wow Sue that must be some kind of record, getting all in on time! Waiting on pins and needles for the next phase. Hugs. Nan W

USA today. That might be the last one, but there is one person I haven't heard from for a few weeks.
Still no fabric delivery so there is still time.

USA and South Africa today. (Woo hoo - I can uncross my fingers!)
Just two to come now (I think!)

So SA was not the last. When I read your mail, I burst into tears. Just feeling very emotional with our fires at the moment

Why are you sad? I missed something.

Fingers crossed Sarah and Christine I expect there will be a next time

I am not sure, but it sounds as if Sarah's post may have gotten lost.

It had a long way to go!

Thank you all for your concern. I was told 2 - 3 weeks. It will be three weeks this coming Monday

I am so anxious to see what this project is about. It is the first one that I didn't participate in but with the uncertainty in my life right now I didn't feel I could commit to something that I might not be able to complete. I have not sewed a single stitch since I went to Ireland, not able to concentrate on the task at hand.

Texas, New York and California. There is a village called New York about 40 miles from where I live, but I don't think it is the same one!
