                      | Oh Karen I received your adorable ornament today! What a cute idea for fabric scraps, and using the upcycled guitar strings for beading, well that is just brillant! I'm going to have to borrow that idea. I play violin/fiddle and my strings are oh so expensive. Needless to say after paying 65.00 to 80.00 for a full set (17.00 to 20.00 a string) I'm not to thrilled when they break! So now I can get more money out of my investment! YEAH! I love it, thank you so much.........it is so adorable! Hugs!

                      | Annette, Glad you receive the package-again sorry you had to wait! I know what you mean about the holiday scent candles.. I've already starting burning Autumn scents in my house- even though it has been hot as blazes here with high humidity for the past few days!
 Smiles,

                      | First I want to make sure some of you have received your ornaments. I only seen where Linda McMillin and Janie Edwards have.  I have also sent ornaments out the first week of each month to Georgina Daniel and to A.J. Earl.  Please let me know.  Thanks Lilly

                      | Second some one asked about the same or different ornaments being made and sent.  I do a mix as I make and send so not all of them are the same.  Lilly

                      | Beth in the reading  it sounds like we are not doing the whole year now?  Or are you giving others a chance to sign in. Letting the ones who signed in before (May) just keep sending as you send us a new list after the November list ends.  I do not understand.  It is great to have others sign up it is good to get other idea's for ornaments from others.  Thanks Lilly

                      | For all the sisters who knew we were out and about our year of travel is not over as yet.  We leave Sept. 12 for Boston Mass. and a New York trip coming home early Oct.  Ornaments all ready to go.  Lilly  We saw lots of Mountains covered also most 3 months on the road saw many states traveled over 12,000 miles and are safe at home getting ready to go again.  When the money is out we will just get jobs and save for more travel.  Life is to short to say I wish I could.  Open invite for anyone wanting to come and visit we have alot of house for just 2 people.  Do come we would love to see other farmgirls.  Lilly

                      | Kirksmom, thank you so much for the adorable drum. I appreciate all the detail and time you put into it. I am sorry that I haven't posted sooner. Your note has been on my desk to respond to but I have been down in my back. The meds make me a little loopy. Thanks again, it's precious. Georgina (knitnpurlgirl)

                      | Beth I was responding to the fact that you said that the next mail out after our list ends would be different. That is why I thought we might not do it for one year long now. Also I have to say not everyone is keeping there end of things for August is almost up and I myself am 3 ornaments short from sisters.  Lilly  I still have not heard from AJ if she received her ornament.
