Hello to you all. With the SS birthday swap coming up, it made me wonder as to where or what happens to some Cuties. I am sure I am not the only one who sent my package off to a Cutie last year and they have not posted since. I know that we all have full lives - some more than others but I am just wondering...................

I wonder that too.seems some just fade away and then we have what I call the regulars ,the ones who are here all the time (like me). The latest missing Cutie seems to be Leaha.

Leah was her quite often and I now realize that she has not posted for ages.

Her latest post was 27 days ago.

Perhaps she is on vacation. Hope all is well.

Forgot to add....I can understand how it feels Sarah....when we put in so much love and effort in something we atleast expect an acknowledgement!( unless someone really had unavoidable circumstances as thats how life is)
I hope all participants do appreciate whatever they receive and cherish it :)....I know I would!

I do agree with you, at least a thank you would be nice. I for sure cherish the lunch bag I got last time. It is with me every day when I got to work !

I think I have been misunderstood . It is not thanks I am looking for, it is just to understand what happens to people who post so much and join in with a SS swap and after a couple of months disappear.

Maybe it's related to what happened to me in Yahoo groups. I got way overcommitted and then realized it was consuming way too much of my life and signed out of some of them. Of course, anyone who would feel that way about this site would be showing poor judgment. :D

I have received some great presents which I love as someone has gone to the trouble of making something for me. People appear and disappear for various reason. I have taken part in most of the swaps that Sue organises for us. Once again thanks to her for arranging this swap. Just keep on wondering Sarah

I thought it only happened to me. I also thought she must not of liked it. It was my first attempt, however it had a lot of elements to it. It is hard to come up with something when you can do almost anything. Lol!

I think it is excellent what Sue does for us, I know I am short on time and some times health so I do not join in. I do like to see what others have received
Hugs Pam.

The disappearance of Cuties worries me enormously and I often try to chase up those who go AWOL (sometimes with success.)
With the Secret Santa, quite a few of the participants never post although I know they lurk almost every day. It is more worrying when a regular contributor disappears suddenly like your Christmas Cutie. Each day when I see the list of Birthday Greetings appear I recognise names of those who haven't posted for years.
We don't have as many people as usual taking part in the SS this time - I hope they all stick around!

i still think you can not a better site, for all your embroidery needs than Cuties.
by cfidl 09 May 2015
I agree. Marthie and Lizette. I hope they are just so busy. They lost a family member last I knew.

Thanks a lot Sue for adding the link to the SS gift exchange from 2014 :)
It was lovely to see the beautiful gifts made by all wonderful people here on Cute!

hi airyfairy, i'm one of the SS who disappeared! i was absolutely obsessed when i first joined cuties some years ago. even to the extend of practically having some sleepless nights. then the grandchildren came along one in America and one in Johannesburg. Work became a nightmare (i hardly have time to go shopping). My daughter in JNB did numerous photoshoots with her baby and I was creating all the costumes! So i wasn't embroidering too much and Cute got left behind. I've tried to log in but with my new cell phone whatsapp and odd emails is almost my sum total of communication!
Ill try to get back into the swing and use my machine more(by the way the 440 that got stolen was replaced by a 580!) So all Cuties Hello and will try to be online more often. ElizabethAK

Hi Elizabeth, I often wonder about you. Are you still in PE. Great to have you here and pleased you replaced your machine after the robbery you had. Just hope we have enough power for you to use it :))
by elizabethak 12 May 2015
Yes I'm still in PE. Still working but going on holiday to my son in San Jose for 7 weeks.

This pic is of my granddaughter (daughters little one). Shes now 2. I crocheted the hat an diaper cover (little skirt) for the photoshoot. isnt she too aforable
