Sprite Stitch Board!

Aegidia, I received your parcel - thank you so much for donating all that cool stuff!

Glad it arrived in good order! I hope you can make a few people happy with it, it will be a better use for those things than sitting around in a box in my flat.

Is Starrley still the one to whom we should send donations in the US?

I'm not sure at the minute, she seems to have dropped off the site. I'll get in touch with her and see if she's still ok to receive stuff.

Did you get any word from starrley?

I did, and she said she's still happy to be the US branch of The Vault. She's sort of dropped off again but not difficult for me to contact, so sending her stuff should be fine

I saw the banner is requesting more goodies? The daiso (100yen shop) here in Japan has a decent amount of crafting supplies, such as water erasable markers, packs of 8-12 mixed coloured floss, embroidery hoops, felt etc. As it is all sooo cheap I would be happy to get some if there is need. Would people have a problem with using non-branded floss?

Also I was wondering if any of the vault stuff has been used yet? Not trying to accuse anyone of hoarding and sitting on a big treasure chest of crafting goodies, but if it has been of help to people I would love to hear about it!

That would be really nice of you, if you could.

Yes, some of it was used a while back, but with me having something of a relapse and starrley too, all our lists and stuff need updating. So there's kind of been some hoarding and plenty of sitting, but all with good reason. I have plans for many of the items, oh yes! Just need to get my head on right!

Man, it has been ages since I wrote that. Stupid life getting in the way. Now the swap is out of the way, I will try and get on this. Who is the best (cheapest) person to send stuff to from Japan?
I love Daiso so much. I am really going to miss it when I move back to Australia.

I really don't know. I suspect it may be cheaper to send to the US from Japan, but I have no idea how jp post makes its merry way around the world (obviously, if it went pacific then US would be best, or so you'd think).
