Hi Marian,

I saw in the messages in my emails that someone--was it you--had been asking about the abbs. then I couldn't find it when I came to the forum. Hopefully all the other girls will put more on here that we use.  I'm sure there are loads out there.

janet

Yes it was me..

 

I got confused when I think it was Tessa said she was making a pink quilt for BF and thought at first she meant boy friend... but then thought No - not pink... Katy said it was Bush Fire....

 

So it's great that we now have a thread to help us

BFN (Bye for now) oooh I think I'm getting the HOI - hang of it now...

 

Marian

Hi Joan

 

I'm sure there's more of us out there that gave ourselves brain-ache trying to decipher it all... I just about manage to text but even then I still mostly use longhand or I end up spending most of my time deleting.  But thanks to the girld & guys on here, we will now understand....Yeh!!!!!!!!!!!

Okay, I know I have heard this before, but what does  ATC mean?

It means Artists Trading Card, it's basically a smaller postcard, another craft swap idea. People trade different kinds of ATC, I'm not sure of the correct size, I think it's two and a half inches by three and a half, Janet makes them, she will know.
