Can someone please explain to me how a new alpha has begun, when we still had 3 letters to go on the funny train font? Between the sister sites, this is about the 4th time it has happened. I don't think I'm the only one who likes to complete a set. I'm hate to complain about free designs, but it is so fustrating. Hugs, Tammy

I'll try to explain don't know if you will like the answer. This train font was available end of June through July in 2009 daily. Voters either missed certain letters or wanted the whole alpha till a new font was introduced. So this was a recycled font

Thank you, I understand what you are saying. Maybe in-between alpha's, we will get the missing letters, hopefully. It makes a person wonder if it really means anything to vote for the next letter. Thank you, I appreciate it. Hugs & **'s 4 U. Tammy

You never know how much time will be between alphas, fairly long at the moment here on CuteEmbroidery, so it is worth it to try and vote.

I know how you feel-I collected every day for 23 days and now I am X Y Z short. It is good to give us these, but I wasn't on here in 2009, and once an alpha is started, I would like to complete. I can't spell Avery without the Y and her step-dad is a train conductor._Toogie

You can always buy a few missing ones, they are notexpensive so it won't break the bank.

I did as well. I was not a member 2 years ago. i (gently) think it would be considerate of everyone to complete the full alpha - it's only 3 more days....then we could buy the ones we missed.

Just voted for the last three letters of this font. Hope you will also. It is only three letters.

you might want to consider a membership when the next special comes up Tammy-well worth it- you never have to worry about missing designs-

I would love to do that, but alas, lack of funds prevent me from doing that right now. Maybe someday, I hope I can do that. Tammy

Please ladies you must understand. All sites are in business to make money. Unless you work for free yourself, you can't expect others to. If I miss a couple letters in a font, I put them in my wish list until there are several and then buy them. When you stop to think of the costs of our other embroidery supplies, the costs here are very insignificant. Appreciate the free things and be willing to pay for what isn't.

Perhaps she would like some paying customers...I don't mean to sound snipey, just she is in the business of selling designs, and her prices are beyond fair.
