Comment: Thanks SO much for the bird notecards, & the extra which might be my favorite. He's such a sweet fuzzy duck. Also, I have this exact jellyfish notepad & write my "here's your swap for such-n-such" on it too. Small world. Yes, the cherry blossoms get prettier every year. When I worked downtown last year, I saw them frequently. I don't really like crowds though, even though they're helping the DC economy a bit *chuckle* Hope you're having a great weekend. ;)
Response: I'm glad they sent those to everyone equally! I hate the cherry blossom crowds, too; we try to go on weekdays to avoid the worst of the tourists. :) Thanks for the heart!

Comment: Ooooo, you sent me to the web to look up Gocco printing, and now I am soooo jealous!!!!!! If you do try the letterpress printing thing, look into polymer plates. You have to deal with the hassle of making or getting them made, but I think they are way easier than lead type. And you still get that lovely embossing. Anything you can do in black and white on your computer, you can get turned into a polymer plate, so it's also way more flexible design-wise than lead type. Oh, and your letterfold arrived in perfect condition. Hearts for the instructions. I love that fold and want to try it myself!
Response: Yay for spreading the Gocco-love! I've read about the polymer plate style of letterpressing, and love the idea, especially if it's a design that wouldn't be found in lead type already. Glad it got there safely, and thanks for the heart!

(Also, apparently we both know what is apparently called the Mennonite Letterfold; where did you learn yours? I learned mine in late middle school in Kentucky.) Thank you also for the feather! It is a good addition =) My studio is getting back to normal and we are hosting shows on a regular basis again, which is nice. I hope your friend in Murfreesboro weathered the flood well!

Comment: I recieved my items but 7 out of the 15 books were damaged by water, spine was broken,Covers Were Taped Up, and pages were falling apart just by looking at them. Sorry i had To Rate Down On This Swap :(
Response: I really wish you would have talked to me about this first, especially since delivery confirmation says they arrived over a month ago. Because the books were to be from a thrift store, of course the spines would be cracked. I didn't read the books first and so didn't know pages would come out of some of them, and I don't think a few drops of water on covers of cookbooks (which is the only type of book you requested) is unexpected, seeing as they were previously used while people were cooking in their kitchens with them. However, I would have gladly sent different ones to make it up if you told me you were unhappy, but you never replied to my two emails when I asked you if they'd been received. :(

Ereine rated for private school book swap on Aug 20, 2009

Comment: Thank you very much :) The pages are fun, the French lessons seem slightly strange and the "Life Cycle Library" is funny. It's also interesting how different the pages are from Finnish books of about the same era, Finland was still rather poor so the paper isn't of as good quality, illustrations are smaller and colour wasn't used much. And of course Finland was very far from being a multi-cultural country.
Response: Oh, I'm so glad you like them! The 50's era books have nothing but white children in them, so I thought it was interesting to see how quickly that mentality changed in the books from the 60's. Black children weren't depicted proportionally to their population, but a few tokens were scattered throughout. (No Asian, Hispanic, or Native American kids yet, though.) Thanks for the heart!

Response: Thanks for the heart! I make the tape; nothing else on the market seemed to work the way I needed it to. I could tell you how, but then I'd have to kill you. :)

Comment: Thank you for the eclectic cards: each one was great, and you managed to tell me so much about each day in such a small space. Thanks for sharing your week! Added later the same day: The last one just arrived, and it's great too. I am so jealous that you got to tool around in a Smart Car, and in general it sounds like you had an excellent birthday--best wishes!
Response: I loved hearing about your days, too! Thanks so much for swapping with me. :)

Comment: So AWESOME! I adore the stationary & pin! Schwientfurt kids come to the High School here in Bamberg, it's about 35 minutes or so. Depends on your driving - they have a better commissary & PX though :)
Response: I'm so glad you liked it! I have no internal knowledge of German geography, so that's good to know! I should probably look at some maps sometime... :) If you see a fair-skinned redhead with an infant while visiting their PX, tell Jessica hello!
