Entries for June Blocks (246)

Only 2 entries for June so that must mean Summer is in full swing…I know I can attest to that since I didn’t quite get all of my own blocks completed either…such is life of a quilter in the Summer, right?

Danielle R her super cute Truly Scrumptious Block

Kathy S, finished Pies and Tarts while she was vacationing in Croatia – nicely done Kathy…and super cute little doilies in the corners 🙂

 

Winner for June is….Danielle R. I always try to post the entries in the order they are sent to me…

Congrats Danielle, nice job getting your entry in on time before leaving for your trip to Winnipeg..hope it was a fun time, contact me for your prize:)

Canada Post Strike Over (245)

Update!! The Canada Post strike is officially over, we (Canadians) should start to be receiving our goodies in the mail come Tuesday afternoon of this week!!

Here’s a good article I found regarding the update.

Thanks to Monica from Totally Tea as I have my order pending with her to be shipped and she is shipping it Canada Post (I emailed asking her for another method of shipping to ensure it’s arrival and she said that the Strike is over so thus shipping it the standard way) – YAY!! Thanks for the good news Monica :)) I’m super happy now!

What a nice way to start off my Monday.

I do realize there will be a huge backlog of mailing that’s been sitting for the last week or so so please be patient with your Postal Workers they are doing their job and we will get our goodies soon!!

Happy Monday all!

Canada Post Strike (244)

Well ladies, this isn’t a post I want to do but thought I should get this info out there for everyone to know and be aware of as the time is starting near when I bundle up your block of the month kits for another month…but with this full strike there won’t be any mailing happening soon 🙁

From what I hear (local Post office said yesterday as well as my dh heard on the news yesterday) the union went into “talks” again on Monday…but if the Government orders them back work they have 72 hours so another 3 days before that happens…

Here’s the latest video clip I’ve found saying the back to work order was tabled, how frustrating for the small business’s of Canada.

If you have any insight for me, I’d appreciate the heads up!!

Thanks everyone.
