Yep, that is the material Ray. Not that particular possum, I have very little left of that one- had a request from The Netherlands for some "red toned" possum, so a section of the shoulder area went over there and other pelt sections went to the States.
I forgot one of the full pelts I sent over still had a tail, I thought the "black fur" was from the Roscoe mascot William sent me the photo of. So the mascots grey/white mate was also not divided up?
I do not remember sending Wallaby this time- or was it extra from last year? If I did send some this year it would not have been a lot as supplies are low on the Wallaby front.
I am also guessing the Ferret did not make it out of "Dodge" and did not stretch as far as the "extra" packs?

Seems like we will all just have to play with what we got given and no two sets will be the same (except the two I mailed out yesterday!) ;)

Mataura mayfly, Howdy;

I received a fairly large 4.5"X5.33" of some gray/white fur that gets sort
of yellowish/cream colored towards the belly (I presume), I think Jeff and I decieded
what it may be in a PM,a bit of the possum, and a smallish patch of some indeterminate
goldish brown/black fur with a staple length of almost (not quite), 1/2" long with grayish
under fur. Is it (the undetermined), an import or from a North American critter that hasn't
been ID'ed as of yet???

Sorry fellas it looks like I have to pull out of this swap as I don't have the materials required.
Life is good, why waste it.

No you don't. I sent out two small packs yesterday to members who did not get Roscoe packs, so they could have roughly the same materials as what was gifted out. Not a lot, but enough to get through the swap flies and maybe a bit more.
If you would still like to play, PM me a postal address and I can do the same for you and keep you in the play. ;)

Geez..... I've been called a lot of things...... by a lot of different folk........ but sweetheart?
I'm not sure if I should be blushing........ :lol:

Ms Fflutterffly, it looks like you might be landed with a few overseas return postages. Are you happy with a selection of materials to help negate the costs, or folding stuff?

Jeff, I added quite a bit of my own yarns and other materials to the mix, including a few squares of wallaby you sent earlier (I had a lifetime supply and some left over, thank you).

Ariel, I'm glad to participate, but not at the expense of having anyone who was not able to attend the gathering and who would like to play. If there is anyone who expressed interest please let me know. Id have more fun seeing this get played out with those who couldn't make it. Thanks.
