hi all,
i'm so sorry that i have been away from the board for a long while. there was a death in my family and we have had so much to deal with. i'm very sorry that i never took the time to say thank you so much to my sc for a wonderful package that absolutely brightened up a day that was otherwise rather gloomy. i got a fabulous mini-scarf that has tons of different colors in it! it's super cute. i'm a beginning knitter and i was completely amazed to see all the different colors of yarn knitted together. i also recieved a homemade iron-on patch (i've never seen these homemade before!) and it's totally cute and is gracing my otherwise boring backpack. sc, thanks so much for everything and again, i'm sorry it has taken me so long to thank you for it!

also, to my partner to whom i'm sending: i still have not sent out your october package, however i will be sending it out tomorrow. it's all packed and ready to go just sitting by the door! i'm so sorry i'm a slow poke, and i hope you do enjoy it when you get it!

thanks again for everything. kat, thanks for being patient, and everyone, i really am very sorry about my absence in this swap. i hope you can all forgive me.

maybe you could make a mock up of the dress found here:

and you could also take a black face paint crayon and make tick marks all the way around your neck like this:

so that when you tie the ribbon around it, it kinda looks frankenstein-esque... like this:
