Another Angel Blessing

Thank you so much to the angel who took the time to make sure I had a beautiful bag! I absolutely love it and have had a lot of jealous eyes staring at it :)! I had a good time doing this exchange, and I want to thank the hostesses and angels who came through to help out making sure no one was left out of the exchange. Thank you again!

Thank you to my Tote Angel!

I never received my bag so the Tote Angels swooped in & blessed me with this gorgeous Starfish Bag! Thanks so much to my Angel Holly---the bag is lovely & I appreciate your efforts so very much!! xoxoxox

I've Been Blessed by An Angel!

I am one who was waiting and waiting and my bag never arrived, so our lovely swap hostesses made sure that an angel was called in to send me a bag. I just want to say that my Angel, Kimberly, is awesome. She knit me a fabulous tote bag, which I may have to fight with my 17-year-old-Diva daughter in order to have a turn to use it.

Thanks to Kimberly, for making me such a lovely bag, and thanks again to our extraordinary hostesses. I'm really looking forward to the next swap.

My Bag Arrived!

My beautiful, wonderful bag arrived today and I am so excited. I am the lucky recipient of Joanna's (Brahdelt) bag. I just loved it when she posted it and even went to her blog and got the pattern hoping to make it myself one of these days. But I didn't have to!!! She made it for me. It came all the way from Poland - how cool is that? It was accompanied by a wonderful smelling candle (the bag now smells like that too :-), her favorite milk candies and some yummy tea. All the writing on the boxes is in Polish and it is just so fun to have these different things. Poor Joanna sent the bag 7 weeks ago and has been stressing that it was lost. That would have been such a tragedy since it is such a wonderful bag. I can tell you it is well worth the wait and I am so thrilled. THANK YOU to my wonderful pal!

Final Notice

There are still some of you who have not received your bags from Tote Exchange I. The hostesses are doing everything they can to track down your bags or line up angels to fill in. Although we are starting Tote Exchange II, we are going to continue to help those of you who are still waiting for your first bags.

Although we have been actively emailing those members with status updates, feel free to check again via the gmail account if you're not sure of the status. It is terribly disappointing to get "stiffed" and we are doing all we can to avoid that outcome.

Thank you Hostesses!!!

Before Tote Exchange II kicks into gear I want to send a big thank you to the hostesses of Tote Exchange I. All of your hard work made this a very enjoyable and rewarding experience for us participants. This is the first exchange I've participated in and I was very impressed. Thank you for being so generous with your time and energy to make this a successful exchange!
