Without going into all the reasons and excuses, please humbly forgive me for the wrong that I did to you personally. It was never intentional to have this happen. I am sorry to each and everyone of you that I failed to finish or follow through my side of the trades, swaps, barters and such.
I owe fat quarters, violet jellies, totes, tatted doily, and many other things. The time has ran away from me and I want to make good on this.
I have lost my list and addresses for who I owe to.
I need your forgiveness and your help, please.
Please remind me who you are and what I owe you, either here or my email.
I feel bad for hurting any of you and I am really really sorry.
I am looking forward to do good on the previous barters, swaps, etc.
Thank you

Kerrieann, It takes a big person to own up to their mistakes. I respect you for that! Hold your head up and make it right. Then move on with a clear heart.
If you don't get responses telling you who you owe, you could send some random "gifts" to folks you admire on here to show good faith and clear your conscious.
Again, I am proud of you for doing this!

Yes, I agree with Connie. Owning up to mistakes is the first step. Sometimes, life gets in the way. I am sure the farmgirls you owe to will either write to you or forgive you.

Karrieann, all is good please do not worry anymore about our Barter it is in the past, lets just move forward and start from there.
Things happen in our lives that we can not foresee, but an email is always nice to let the person you are bartering with know that you can not fulfill your end of the barter for whatever reason.
Thank you for your honesty, but you must let it all go now alright?
Have a beautiful weekend. Tomorrow is a new day.
Farmgirl Hugs,
Debbie

From one forgetful Carrie Ann to another I understand how life gets away from you.
While I never asked for anything in return for our barter all I would really like to know is if you got the wooden spools and if you liked them?
That's the part of sharing that pleases me the most!!

Hey Karriann!
Like I said I never bartered/asked for anything so no worries there!
I'm just happy to give something to someone who likes it. I'm terrible about getting rid of stuff. It always "seems" like it will be of use someday but it just ends up cluttering up the place forever.
The garland looks really cool and not something I ever would have thought of doing with them, so good for you!

Michele,
I am thrilled that the tatting arrived safely to your home.
Please call on me (email) if I can help or encourage you with your tatting, I'll be glad to help in whatever way that I can.
Just for your interest, I have been tatting for a full year now, so you can do it too!
Are you needle tatting or shuttle tatting?
Thank you for your kind words!

Michelle...I disagree, we do not All NOT follow through sometimes because Life happens. But we all understand if things get in the way...if we contact those who we owe...and then follow through and
make it right, then all are HAPPY IN THE END!
I have personally swapped with Karriann and she does Stellar Work! Just outstanding Tatterer!!!
And I am so proud of her for making good on her Swaps and Barters. I wish more Farmgirls would
follow her good example.
blessings,

my dear peggyann, I am sorry that you disagree with me with my first comment but as you can see Karriann did make me a beautiful tatted item which I did acknowledge on here so others would see that though her life made her delay on items she did do as sh said...Yes I agree some don't follow thur & I have lost $100's in barter trades but I am at a point in my life it really doesn't matter so much anymore.....sometimes I feel you just have to write things off & let it go or it will eat you up inside & make you a unhappy & angry person.....right now I am behind on a apron for a hen but I did contact her & she knows I am working on it but I have been slow getting back to the sewing room...between surgery, car wrecks, dying chickens & just being alone some days its more than I can handle but I do try & always remember the great hens I have met thur here that are kind & forgiving of my faults.....Michele'

Michele...I agree that sometimes you do have to "Just Let Go" and move on. I have chosen to do this
after being burned several times. I...like you would rather continue to have fun and not let those
few spoil my "FUN" & "JOY".
Forgive me for coming across argumentative on the subject. But I know many gals who are always committed
to their Swaps and always come through even "IF" they do have to be a little late.
blessings,
Peggy

Peggysue you are alright, I didn't feel threatened by your comment & I do understand where you are coming from.....Its so hard sometimes to know what to do or feel when something doesn't go the way you wanted or hoped. I am thankful for the hens I have meet here & some I have grown to love like Debbie (Colorado)...others also have been here for me when I am having a tough time or just feeling blue or just needed an computer smile. Being alone makes me forget that I can reach out to my hens when I need to. I have gained friendships that are priceless to me thur MJ......Michele'
