 I got the pocket letter page from Marlene today. She had the cards decorated with 2-D stickers, very pretty. Thank you!

Dianna, your pocket letter mailed out today, should be there in 2-3 days? Maybe? If we're lucky?
I just heard our previous mail carrier was put on notice, we had another neighbor bring us some of our mail today that was misdelivered. Hubs and I were just chatting and wondering if we need to move everything to our PO Box, but that's on the north end of town, we're on the south... so, we're not thrilled about that idea, but I know with out a doubt that we've missed mail over the last year or two. We're still only receiving mail about 2- 3 times a week. :-( So watch for your little package! xo

Hi Wanda :)
I just got back from a long weekend trip with my sister (she had a conference and I tagged along). I am catching up on some computer time tonight - I do have your address and will let you know as soon as I get your package sent out.
Sorry for the delay - I was thinking of you and our swap but was trying my best to stay off my devices and just enjoy the time away!

Oh thats awful April!! Po boxes might just be safer!! My son, in Washington, just told me he found a huge stash of empty envelopes and Amazon packages dumped behind his shed when he and Sophia went to feed the cows. He had to call the police. Guess what? They did NOT do a thing!!! Its getting very crazy out there!! :( Your package says it will be delivered Saturday.

Great pocket letters ladies!! :)
April I am so sorry about your mail. That’s awful.
Dianna, I can’t believe the police didn’t do anything at all. So many people are missing out on their mail.

Laura I’m sure you had a fun trip, sister time is the best! Do not worry at all about the swap, I just finished yours tonight and it will go in the mail in the morning.
All of the pocket letters are so wonderful! This is my first time doing one, and it was so fun to put together.

Oh Dianna, I soooo love my pocket letter from you - It's absolutely breathtaking. Each and every pocket card is so beautifully detailed and so full of love and layers! I'm afraid my pocket letter to you will fall short of your creation, but know it was made with love and a full heart. And, thank you for the tea and honey stix, can't wait to try them. I love my tea like no tomorrow! XO

And, Dianna, I adored every single verse you included, I needed every single one as a reminder... he does work in mysterious ways. XO

Hi Wanda :)
I got your package mailed out yesterday - I think it should arrive by Monday. This was my first pocket letter and I had such fun creating yours. I too hope we'll have more Farmgirl Pocket Letter swaps in the future!

Candy, you are the sweetest! I love my pocket letter! I received it a few days ago but had some obstacles to posting here, my apologies! I absolutely love it, you are so creative! Mine went out on Monday or Tuesday so i hope you get it soon if not already. Thank you again for making my day and have a very happy and loving Valentine's Day, all!

I’m so glad that everyone enjoyed the swap! I really can’t decide what my favorite part of pocket letters is…they are easy to make, adorable, fairly inexpensive to mail (especially if flat…but since Farmgirls are “tuck” girls, that can be difficult!), use up scraps and stashes…
Would anyone be interested in swapping on a schedule? Monthly, bi-monthly, 1/quarter? The theme chooser could be rotated…or themes could be created for a certain period of time and then posted…
Thoughts? Questions? Concerns?
Karen :)

Hi Allie, I received my Pocket Letters today and socks. I love the Pocket Letters they are just perfect! Your handmade Windmill note card is so cute. Thank you so much for being my swap partner and the goodies. I am trying to track your envelope now and the site is down, I will keep checking. I have another package out in the wind to Alabama, I mailed 6 packages the same day I mailed yours and all but two have been delivered. I am going to the post office tomorrow, if you and Alabama do not have you packages by then I will check on them. Thank you so much Karen for such a fun swap, I look forward to the next one.

Hi Wanda Sue!
My Pocket Letter arrived safely today - how fun this is! Thanks for my first pocket letter and all the cute tucks that were included. I truly had such fun with this and so I've started a binder and your page is my first one :) I'm already looking forward to future pocket letter swaps.
