Hi Terry haven't heard yet either...I like the idea of the surprise but am wondering if and when???...My was sent out nearly three weeks ago...checked with the post office as was getting a bit worried...So heres just a note to all sending stuff across the line, apparently wtih the security issue @ the forfront you can add a week plus onto the delivery time they tellyou becuase of the backlog at the border. So haven't contacted my recipient but hopefully should be there within the next few days...so don't want to spoil the surprise...and yes warmer weather would be nice we've been at -34 but am told today by the weatherman that we may see +5 celcius this afternoon...what extremes

No panel here yet, am waiting patiently, hoping to hear something from someone........ whoever is doing mine, just have fun and don't get too worked up over it, I'll like it whatever you do.

It's been mentioned to me, the possibility that some people may be reluctant to contact their recipient inorder to "preserve the surprise" of who is making theirs.
If this is the case with anyone, I'd be happy to forward an anonymous message to your recipient on your behalf.
Type your message and send it to me and I will forward it to your recipient.

I just received my panel from the one and only...Pat Welter!
This sign really rocks!!!!!!!!!! Thanks Pat! My panel is an oval with routed gold letters around the edge border of red, then a relief of an antique oval crackle process and hand carved script letters of my name, painted in gold, a carved rooster at the top and a carved Canadian "gold" leaf at the bottom, "letterhead" in red below my 3 D name. I feel so honored, tickled, flabbergasted, Pat you went way overboard (but I'm not complaining! ). What talent you have, I am very admirable of your skills and will treasure this forever, especially being as this is the FIRST letterhead panel swap.
You can post it now, Terry, and thanks for sweating it out guys as you both thought it may be lost in the mail. (three weeks in the mail can be a little nerve wracking, eh?) My brother in law received this at his engine shop for me, and was so excited for me to get over there and open it right away too.

I'm still getting e-mails from people saying they haven't heard from their panel makers.
Please people, just drop your recipient a note or give me a message to pass along to them. It will be coming up 2 months past the deadline soon and there are people out there wondering if they are even going to be getting one now.

Mine was shipped out today and I wasnt even involved in the original exchange. My panel partner and I agreed to a deadline and we signed the agreement in blood!
I sure had a blast making it. I can't remember the last time I got pleasure out of making a sign.
