thanks for your help

[gismo]

can I be in the stripy / spotty too pleasey and I will do PINK!!!!

[chrismicbritt]

Just signing in Heather,good luck with your 1st swap hosting,you'll be great :D

[Clay 36]

You're not being dim at all - that's the kind of question I ask :lol: . Yes, if you're in the organza group you'll get 10 different colours of organza ribbon, same for the plain and the spotted/stripey.

Will swap you over gismo.

Welcome Louise. :D

[sandiejds]

Thanks for including me. Is gingham ok for stripey? If so I'll do baby blue and pink checked. :lol:

[Clay 36]

Ladies in the spotty/stripey - are you happy to include gingham in that?

[sandiejds]

Just found some lovely multi coloured pastel striped online so I'll do that. Thanks anyway. By the way one of the sponsors Paper arts have some lovely ribbons by the metre if people are struggling to find any.

Anyone in the stripey/spotty group object to the pink/lemon check - even though I have a SERIOUS aversion to pink :nono: , it sounds interesting :lol: . Welcome aboard Maria. Lovely to see you.

[chrismicbritt]

No way I love pink,can't wait to see it. :D

[Clay 36]

Louise, how did I KNOW you'd say that! :P

[Looby Lou]

Just ordered my ribbon... it is stripey grosgrain coffee and cream... it is gorg and fabby and I love it...

Only ordered 10 metres... do I get a metre of it back?!?!?

[theresa b]

Audrey

[ellsese]

Can I join the plain ribbon section?
If so I will be sending cream grosgrain.

[AJH]

Hi Are there any more places? Happy to go wherever but prefer organza if poss, will PM you also xx

[Edd]

Heather, if organza'a full, happy to swap with Anita, if she'd like to do organza

Rxx

[Clay 36]

Edd, you stay where you are. Have given up my space in the organza group for AJH.

Ladies: if anyone else wants a ribbon swap - Chrismicbritt is doing a Christmas one and had spaces left at last checking.

SWAP FULL

[RozRoz]

Hi I have a question, I'm in the plain swap, can it be organza but in a plain colour, or does if have to be a plain satin ribbon, also is it any width?

I'll go for a cream colour if thats ok please

Thanks

[AJH]

Wow - thank you Heather are you sure thats OK ??? And thank you Rhian too for your kind offer. xxx

[Clay 36]

RozRoz, the plain group tends to be satin or grosgrain and we already have a cream - you were beaten to the punch. Can you come up with another? :unsure: No restrictions on width.

Anita: you're very welcome. Wouldn't do it for just anyone. :D

[AJH]

Will it be OK to do purple 15mm organza? please? Thanks !

[Clay 36]

Lovely Anita. Wish I hadn't given up my slot but then you wouldn't be doing it wouldn't you :lol: .

[AJH]

Oh Heather feel bad now ....but will send you a few metres of this to you , extra, as a thank you !! Thanks for confirming colour is OK. xx Will PM you my details as well xx

[Girly]

Now all you ladies in the know where do you get your ribbons from, if its not a sponsor can someone kindly pm me a link.

I was planning on going to Hobbycraft but will obviously not know what I will get till I get there.

I am a newbie so please take pity on me ;)

[Pippin]

Hiya, Thanks for adding me to the organza group - can i get burgundy 10mm pls?
Will PM you now before i go ahead and buy ;)

[RozRoz]

Hi Clay, can you please put be down for Red for the plain ribbon swap, I'll go out tomorrow and pick some up.

thanks

[fionaken]

Just checking in. Will post later with my colour of organza ribbon. thanks

[theresa b]

hi have ordered mine and just to confirm it is 6mm satin edged bright blue... will pm you my details now...

[Pippin]

OK - just confirming burgundy braided edge organza now ordered

[Clay 36]

Ladies, these all sound lovely. Thanks Roz for the red.

Anita - very kind and I'll look forward to it. Might have to fend off my daughter though - the purple/lilac kid! :lol:

[mei_lye]

Well let you know tomorrow when I pop into the market to nose around.

Audrey

[Clay 36]

Thanks Audrey.

You should all have had a PM now with the address to post to. If not, please PM me and I'll send you a response ASAP.

If you can, a label with a stamp attached should be ideal for posting back - can provide envelopes for you all.

[chrismicbritt]

If you open them really carefully Heather you can reuse the envelopes ;) :D

[Clay 36]

Is that how you always know what's going on - steaming envelopes open eh :P . Have got spares just in case. Thanks for the tip Louise.

[chrismicbritt]

No I never do that Heather not since I burnt my hand trying :lol: I do sometimes have to use my own envelopes so a good idea to have some spare ones.Usually becasue I've ripped open the envelope in excitement and ruined it. :rolleyes:

[Clay 36]

Have any of you ladies in the stripey/spotty group got a burning desire to do organza instead - one of the ladies in that group would really rather do a spotty/stripey lot. I suspect it's cos she's another swap addict and has loads of organza - anyone fancy swapping :unsure: .

[Chris F]

Just book marking thread - will be back later to let you know what colour

[helenpp]

mine is yellow - think it is 10 mm but not measured so will confirm
will post tomorrow so i can do more swaps- coming thick and fast now!

[Clay 36]

Morning gals. Thought I'd better mention that after noonish on a Friday, I'm not often at a computer again until a Monday morning so don't panic if you PM me and I don't respond straight away.

[Polgara]

Just popping in to say hi and bookmark the thread. I am hoping to buy my ribbon tomorrow - I do so love having a market 10 minutes walk downthe road. :)

[chrismicbritt]

Heather got my ribbon here.Ordered it from jillybeans yesterday and it's here,hows that for service.I pay with a cheque too which was only posted this morning,think she trusts me now I buy so much from her :rolleyes: I'll get it bagged up and in the post tomorrow. :)

[mei_lye]

Hi,

Mine red with black stripes. Have already cut and bagged it up so will post it off tomorrow!

Audrey

[Clay 36]

Thanks for keeping me up-to-date girls. Have edited my 1st post to reflect what's going on so far. :D

[Edd]

Have to go shopping, and see what I can see, but I fancy the idea of white - does that work for everyone?

(My other fave is black - I'm a monochromatic girl :D )

[fionaken]

Hi I put me down for 12mm lilac organza if thats OK.

[Clay 36]

They both sound great ladies. Thanks very much.

[karen433]

Hi Heather, can I do pink?

[Clay 36]

Thanks Karen. Updated to include your pink.

[Ali M]

Heather..
mines a sort of orangey yellow with white spots...but i think its just under the 9 meters as it was the end of the reel so is it ok if I put yours and my own with a yellow with white spots...??its either that
or
a mixture of pink and blue with an irredescent sort of holographic spot in the middle...half a metre each of blue and half a metre of the pink.(for everyone).what do you think???

unfortunately the shop was low on lengths of the ones I liked the most...

[Clay 36]

Ali M: am not in your group pet. I hear what you're saying about the shop but the norm is to send 10x1m lengths of the same colour. However, having checked with ladies MUCH MORE EXPERIENCED than I, I've been told that in cases like this it's acceptable to send in mixed ones if the rest of the group have no objections.

Spotty Group Ladies: if Ali M sends 8x1m length of the orange and 2x1m lengths of the yellow - both with white spots, are you happy to take whatever I stick in your pouches? :unsure:

[PBear]

Will go shopping over the weekend and let you know what I buy! I wonder if anything else will jump out into the basket without me knowing. Stash does that, don't you find!

[Clay 36]

Oh Helen, absolutely! :lol: I have the same problem, it just throws itself at you.

[PBear]

................ shouting buy me, buy me - you can't live without me! I know you'll think of something to do with me eventually........

[chrismicbritt]

Heather I like both that Ali mentioned so i'll be happy whichever i get. :D

[sandiejds]

Ali M: am not in your group pet. I hear what you're saying about the shop but the norm is to send 10x1m lengths of the same colour. However, having checked with ladies MUCH MORE EXPERIENCED than I, I've been told that in cases like this it's acceptable to send in mixed ones if the rest of the group have no objections.

Spotty Group Ladies: if Ali M sends 8x1m length of the orange and 2x1m lengths of the yellow - both with white spots, are you happy to take whatever I stick in your pouches? :unsure:

I'm fine with that. :lol:

[theresa b]

posted mine to you this morning...

[mei_lye]

Don't mind what I get! Posted mine off today. If you open the envelope carefully, you can re-use it to send the items back.

Audrey

[fionaken]

Got my ribbon today, will cut this weekend and post beginning of week.

[RozRoz]

Heather

Ribbons are all packed and will hopefully leave me Saturday if I'm up early enough, if not will be Monday.

Just to confirm, Red Satin Ribbon, 2.5cm

Thanks

[gismo]

all ready to post this end too x

[Ria979902]

hi OK I've gone with pale olive organza in the end, hope thats ok:)

[Clay 36]

Thanks Maria. Hope everything is ok with you. How about we do a swap - I'll stick in a couple of metres of olive satin if you can swap me a couple of the organza. I love those colours for heritage LOs.

Thanks very much for the wee extras in the envelopes for me. I love the card I got too from Theresa. :wub:

[Ali M]

Posted mine yesterday so they should be with you today or monday...

[Girly]

I got some pale green with a pearlescent green spot running through the middle. Hope everyone likes it. Will post on Monday.

[theresa b]

hi heather glad to hear they got there okay and that you liked the card....

[RozRoz]

Mine went in the post today, recorded delivery, I even remembered to put in a pre stamped addressed envelope back for myself, hope its enough postage, if not let me know and I'll send you the difference.

[DebU]

I dont mind what I get !!

[PBear]

Hi all. Just been shopping to buy ribbon and found a light turquoise, 15mm. Will post tomorrow.

[Clay 36]

All the ribbons received so far are lovely, you're going to get a nice variety. There was a bit of a mix-up with one the ladies in the 1st group so Jainethepain is in in that spot and have not heard from Phantom Phan so will PM her again to ask if she's still interested and if not, have another lady who's "waiting" for that space.

[Looby Lou]

My ribbon arrived this morning and it really is gorgeous... I can't wait to get it back so that I can use it :lol:

[PhantomPhan]

Hi

Sorrry all - thought I had posted and had not - ribbons all batched up and posted.

Karen

Must have been having a blonde moment :wub: :wub: :wub:

[Clay 36]

Ta da! You've found us then Karen. :lol: What colour have you sent pet?

[jainethepain]

Hi, got my ribbon ordered for group one, 15mm wine satin :)

[sandiejds]

Mine will be in the post tonight.

[Clay 36]

Have updated to list all those received so far and those that have told me their colour. My Mum's postie rang the bell yesterday to ask her what was going on :lol: . She told him there's LOADS more to come. It's like Christmas for me all over again, shame I can't keep them all! :nono: Next time I host I'll need to go in all 3 groups! :lol:

Roz: that was a lovely gesture but I won't say what it is - it'll be a surprise for the ladies in your group.

[Clay 36]

The scrapbooking weekend I'm organising in the Scottish borders is now on the Cropping Thread ladies. It'd be great if any of you could make it.

[Polgara]

My ribbons went in the post today :)

[Clay 36]

Thanks Ruth. Will let you know when they arrive.

[fionaken]

Posted my ribbons today.

[Clay 36]

Thanks Helen for the lovely altered address card - haven't started mine yet. First post updated for ribbons received so far.

As soon as a whole group is in I'll post them back out.

A wee reminder for the ladies who haven't as yet told me their colours, or are you keeping it a surprise! :lol:

[helenpp]

glad mine have got there safely!

[usmominuk]

Hiya Heather!
Have ordered ivory to brown organza (sort of changes colour) for the organza group and a Pink mulit stripe for the spotted/stripey group. As soon as they get to me I will post them off.
Thanks!
Becs
xx

[jainethepain]

got my ribbon all packed up ready to post tomorrow :)

[jainethepain]

OK......... maybe not tomorrow - can I have your addy please Heather ?? :)

[Clay 36]

Morning gals! Have updated the front page to let you know what goodies were waiting at my Mum's when I got there last night - wish I was in all 3 Groups - the ribbons coming in are gorgeous and some are really unusual too - haven't seen some of those before and definitely wish I had! :unsure:

I'm away from a computer this afternoon - funeral to go to and will be offline from lunchtime tomorrow until Monday - unless I can sneak in on a friend's machine :lol: so don't worry if you haven't heard from me during that time.

[ellsese]

Hi Heather.
Ribbon is all bagged and ready to be posted later on this afternoon.:):)

[Girly]

Quick question, do you all get proof of postage?

[Clay 36]

Thanks Ellsese. Faye, am not sure. Have one return label provided for Recorded Delivery as one of our ladies has problems with her RM service - I wonder where I've heard that before? :blink:

[karen433]

Heather, I shall be getting mine on Sat - and it will be in the post straight away. Sorry if I'm holding things, but it will be with you next week.

[Clay 36]

Karen, you're not holding things up - loads of time. We're not even past the sign-up date yet :lol: . Let me know when you post it and I'll update the list as soon as I receive it.

[Esjay]

Heather, I'll post my ribbons off tomorrow. Sorry to delay you all.

[PBear]

Don't the colours sound wonderful?
Mine looked like a pale turquoise on the reel, but when loose definately agree with you, Heather, that it looks mint green! Must be the crafty lighting in the shop!

[scrapjax]

The ribbon I ordered arrived today so I'll cut it and post in the next day or so. I ended up ordering a 25 metre reel of it!! :lol: I love organza ribbon (good choice of group for me Heather!!) so knew I'd want to keep it all when it arrived - and now I'll have 15 metres left to play with :lol:

[Pippin]

Just a quickie so you know ribbons were posted to you today hun, hope they arrive with you quickly xxxxx

[Clay 36]

Was rubbing my chubby hands with glee on the way home last night only to be disappointed when I got home and no wee parcels! :lol: Postman even knocked the door to tell my Mum sorry that he had nothing, she said he looked so disappointed! :lol: :lol: Will try and get to a computer and post over the weekend if there's anything there tonight and tomorrow. Have a good weekend ladies. Speak to you Monday.

[lala28]

heather

coming to Edinburgh shopping on sunday so will try and get my ribbon then, hopefully there will be lots of choice, if i get it will post in Monday

thanks

[jainethepain]

posted mine this afternoon :)

[Girly]

Have sent mine, the lovely lady in the PO made sure I got the postage right for both envelopes and was very interested in what I was swapping and thought it was a great idea :lol:

[Clay 36]

Got more on Friday/Saturday but can only remember what 2 of them were! Forgot my list - I have it at home and will update the others tomorrow. Sorry ladies.

Jaine: thanks for the lovely notebook and primas. That's really very kind of you.

Thanks to the other ladies for the goodies/extras you've sent for me. :wub:

[DebU]

Hi

I have purchased pink ribbon with black spots... they will be on their way today.

[Edd]

Heather, I'll send mine off (hopefully) tomorrow - when I a) remember to bring it in and/or b) remember to take you address home with me.

I'm a bear of little brain!

[Clay 36]

Thanks DebU, sounds lovely even though it is pink :P Sorry, have an inbuilt allergy to pink.

Rhian, you're as bad as me! :lol:

[Lesley136]

Posted mine off today - should get there tomorrow.
Lesley

[Clay 36]

Thanks for letting me know Lesley. Will post when it arrives.

[Clay 36]

Morning ladies - you all know my opinion of pink by now but I really wish I was getting some of DebU's ribbon - it's not the usual spotty pattern that you would expect - it's ice cream pink with almost a "dalmation" pattern spot! It's lovely and very unusual.

[Ali M]

ooo,cant wait to see them...they all sound lovely!

[Ali M]

Only 2 more to arrive in my group..might be getting them soon...I love ribbon...can you tell??

[chrismicbritt]

Ah but Ali you don't love it as much as me,no one does :lol: :nono: Can't wait to see Debs ribbon. :)

[Clay 36]

Ladies, as soon as a whole Group is in, I'll get them posted out. Am still waiting for 2 of the ladies to tell us their colours - have PMd them again.

[DebU]

Morning ladies - you all know my opinion of pink by now but I really wish I was getting some of DebU's ribbon - it's not the usual spotty pattern that you would expect - it's ice cream pink with almost a "dalmation" pattern spot! It's lovely and very unusual.

Hi.... i am glad you like it.... i bought the reverse one too.... black with pink spots.....

[Clay 36]

I love it - shocking I know, me liking something pink! :lol: DebU, fancy doing a trade - have got some nice ribbons and if you got me a couple of metres of each I'd swap you for something I have. Let me know you're up for it and I'll tell you my colours.

[RozRoz]

Hey Heather, don't keep these to yourself, I'll have some of that ribbon as well, it sounds yummy, I'll swap anything :P

[chrismicbritt]

OMG a new concept,a swap within a swap :lol: :lol:

[RozRoz]

I'm up for that, Louise, what you got you wanna swap?

[Clay 36]

:stop: Roz! You don't know what you're encouraging! :lol: Back Louise! :P

[RozRoz]

Spoil Sport :angry:

[lala28]

Finally got my ribbon, its green, solid green and see through green so stripey (sort of ) i think its gorgeous, hope you all agree, will send tomorrow

thanks for being patient

[chrismicbritt]

I'm beginning to get the feeling I've a swaps reputation :lol:


:stop: Roz! You don't know what you're encouraging! :lol: Back Louise! :P

[Clay 36]

Wonder what gave you that idea Louise! :lol: You know I'm only kidding though. It's only with your encouragement/watchful eye that I did this in the first place :wub: .

Lynne: it sounds like a lovely green I have with organza bits in too. Will let you know when it arrives.

[Clay 36]

Morning gals. The bags are filling up nicely. Haven't had a reply from Chris F yet, anyone in touch with her other than UKS? Am hoping she's not unwell or anything along that line.

[chrismicbritt]

Just had a look and shes been online this morning at 12.04 so confused as to why she hasn't replied??? :blink:

[usmominuk]

Hiya heather,
Just checking that my ribbons have arrived to you? They were posted out friday am, so they should be with you hopefully by today!
Becs
xx

[Ali M]

oooo,not long to wait now ladies...Im getting excited!!!

[Edd]

Heather,

Meant to post this am, but disorganised as ever...

Finally posted my ribbon to you on Saturday am - hopefully you'll get it tomorrow.

R

[Clay 36]

Hi Becs. Did you send them recorded - there's a parcel waiting to be picked up but we can't get it until tomorrow.

Will post again if it is them.

[Ria979902]

Heather posting mine tomorrow, sorry for delay,tidied my craft corner and lost the ribbon for a while there:D

[Clay 36]

Thanks for letting me know Maria. That's why I think tidying is a bad thing to do :nono: You can always find things in the mess but not once you've tidied! :lol:

[Ria979902]

Thanks for letting me know Maria. That's why I think tidying is a bad thing to do :nono: You can always find things in the mess but not once you've tidied! :lol:


couldn't agree more,I won't be doing it again don't worry:lol:

[Chris F]

Sorry ladies for not being around much - life is so hectic at the moment. Daughter went off on school ski trip to France early Saturday morning so spent most of last week sorting out the things she needed to buy and pack.

I have chosen a lovely coffee colour ribbon and they are now bagged up and ready to be posted first class tomorrow.
Once again - my apologies
Chris

[Clay 36]

Chris, once yours arrives that's Group 1 complete! Will get those bagged up and sorted and hopefully out by the weekend. Will post and let you know when they're sent. If you can let me know you've received them that would be great.

Group 3: once Becs' (usmominuk) arrives that's your lot complete too so will do the same.

[usmominuk]

Oh goodness heather, I posted it out to you on friday, so it should be there absolute latest today, but i didnt send it recorded.....let me know if it arrives please! Getting nervous now...

[Clay 36]

It was a parcel from another lady completely unrelated to UKS. Don't panic just yet, things are taking a bit longer just now. :rolleyes:

[scrapjax]

Posted mine out to you this evening Heather.

[Clay 36]

Thanks Jackie.

Have received Becs ribbon too and updated the list on the front page.

Spotty/stripey group now complete! Will get them put into the envelopes and posted over the weekend. Thanks ladies.

[chrismicbritt]

Yay can't wait,I :love: ribbon :wub:

[AJH]

Hi Just to let you know that my purple organza (plus some extra for you and your daughter!) is on its way ! Sorry Ive not got it to you sooner.

xx

[Clay 36]

No worries Anita. Will let you know when it arrives. Thanks for the extras. :D

[PBear]

I'm getting excited now - it's nearly time to start postie stalking..........

[Clay 36]

Morning ladies. Wasn't feeling that great over the weekend so didn't get out the house. Goodies coming out today by post - the recorded one will go tomorrow - need to go into the PO for that.

Hope you all love what you're getting. I think they're wonderful.

[chrismicbritt]

Hope you're feeling better now Heather.I know for sure I'll love all the ribbon,I just love ribbon :wub:

[Clay 36]

Thanks Louise - that time you know - am just completely wiped out for the first couple of days. The joys of being a woman :lol: .

Forgot to say ladies. Can you post to let me know you've received your goodies ok and once a group has got them all, can someone post me feedback. Thanks.

[chrismicbritt]

I know what you mean Heather I'm the same.Did you know you are only allowed feedback now from one person in the whole swap and not one from each group :(

[Clay 36]

Thanks for keeping me right Louise, I didn't know that. :unsure: Seems I'm doing the "wrong thing" all over the place :lol: Just as well I've got friends like you to "sort me out". :D

[chrismicbritt]

If you get too many they take them off you,I went from 58 to 45 :blink:

[PBear]

Oh Heather - what a rotten weekend! Hope you're feeling lots better now.

[sandiejds]

Received my lovely ribbons today. Thanks Heather for doing such a great job, and thanks girls for the lovely selection.

[chrismicbritt]

Heather I just got my gorgeous ribbons.I love every single one of them :wub: .Thanks so much to everyone for choosing such lovely ones and of course thanks to you Heather,you did a great job with your first swap,well done.:D

[PBear]

Heather, the postie's just been - and the ribbons are beautiful! Thank you everyone.
Won't say anymore - might ruin surprises - but thanks for the "unexpecteds".
Heather - well done and a huge thanks to you for organising this x

[Looby Lou]

Mine have arrived too are are simply splendiferous LOL!!!!Thanks ladies and thanks to heather for hosting...hope someone left you a rating??

[Clay 36]

Thanks for letting me know ladies. Am still waiting for a couple to arrive from the organza group and will get those sent right away.

Have really enjoyed doing this. Thanks for the feedback ellsese. :D

Keep your eyes open, I might be tempted to do another after my scrapbooking weekend is over. :)

[Ria979902]

mine were posted yesterday so should get them any day, would have been sooner only the children have all been ill over the past few days with various sickness tummy bugs-sorry for the delay

[Clay 36]

No worries Maria - you're still well within the deadline. It wasn't a chase-up, honest. :) There are a load of bugs going round just now - specifically iffy tummies. :unsure: My daughter had one for almost 2 weeks. There've also been problems with RM again - there's a shock! I'm sure Anita said she'd posted hers but there's no sign as yet - mind it might be in that HUGE pile of Valentine's waiting at home - yeah right :blink: .

Will let you know when they get here and I hope all your wee ones get better quickly. :wub:

I knew you said you'd sent them Anita! RM are a nightmare. Got yours and Maria's last night so everything's bagged for the Organza group and in the mail room at work now to go out today.

Will not be online after today until Monday girls - Scottish mid-term week for the schools and have decided to have a couple of days off with my girl.
