                      | Hi Girls,  It is hard to make calls about how long should you wait if you think the person you are waiting on may have extenuating circumstances that may be keeping them from mailing out what they otherwise would have mailed out.  And I know that the mail out day is set for a reason.  And yes, we should all be mailed in by that day or two later.  This swap, I did not feel had to be in such a major regimented time frame because of it's early signup and mailout time.  Fall is right around the corner and hopefully all the atc's will be to you long before the 21st. Farmgirls are the most understanding group of folks I have ever been involved in. That is what makes this group fun!...... You all are in for a treat!  The ATC's are lovely!!  Smiles, Beth 
 
 You can never be to kind!

                      | Connie, Thanks for posting - it's beautiful!  I'm not sure I'm going to be that great at it, but I think I'll give it a try for Christmas if that one's a go.
 Thanks again.

                      | Heather, I think you would so enjoy it!! I have come a long way and still learning after 2 years, but the Atc's are the cutest little artworks and so fun to use for Holiday decorations around your house.

                      | Beth, thank you so much for the WONDERFUL ATC's you chose for me.  I got a beautiful ATC from Sherry Buck decorated with leaves, apples and a really cool stitching around the edge (how did you do that Sherry)?  I also got another beautiful ATC from our sweet hostess Beth...decorated with all kinds of great Fall items...ribbon, velvety leaf, words, chipboard...I love them both!  And Beth, I love the postcard, scraps and the peacock feathers!!!  I will try to post pictures, however, I dropped my camera and broke it when we were on vacation.  I can take pics with my iPhone, but have trouble downloading them to my computer.  I will work on it, though. 
 Thanks for a great swap, Beth and Sherry!
 
 Hugs, Tammy

                      | Thank you Beth!  I received my two amazing round ATC's today. Patsy, loved your western theme and the sweet touch of rings
 on the guitar "Fall Wedding"
 and to Carole M. for the Autumn sparkle ATC with the Fall
 poem and stalks of corn at the bottom.
 Loved them both and the goodies you enclosed Beth, peacock
 feather and Halloween postcard.  Always love your exchanges and
 thanks so much for hosting this one!  Looking forward to the
 Christmas one...

                      | Linda, Thank you so much for the beautiful ATC card.  I am going to attach it to my fridge.
 I love the saying on it.  Fall is my favorite season because of the colors.

                      | Madeline, I received two ATC cards from you.  One was stuck behind the other one.  If I need to send one back I will do so. It will be so hard to decide which one to send back. Anyone can see how pretty both cards are.
 Thank you for the beautiful work.
 Hugs

                      | Beth, Thank you so much for hosting this Round ATC swap.  It was challenging at first but so much fun.  Thanks also for the peacock feather and postcard.  I collect postcards.
 Please, please, host a Christmas Round ATC swap. I think we should do at least three ATCs or more.  We could get started now since all the craft shops are loaded for the holidays.  Imagine how pretty the ATCs would be on mantles, wreaths or Christmas trees.
 Hugs

                      | I got my Atc's and they are so cute. One is from Darlene, it has fall leaves with like candy wraps around it, and peacock feathers. I love and the second is from Mary Duffel" Madelena. So cute a little bird sitting on a branch and a little bee on the limb. I just loved this swap with round Atc's. Hope we do this again. Thank you two love them!  Marlee

                      | What creative atc's everyone has made.  I save all the farmgirl ATC's I've received as well as other small MJF exchange creations and I
 decorate my 4 ft. white Christmas tree with them for my craft room.
 It's so much fun to enjoy them for the whole Thanksgiving/Christmas
 season.
