It looks like a few haven't sent me their patterns yet. In fact 9 haven't. Like I said in the last update, if it don't have a name, size and color will be fine.
Remember, the due date to have them here by is Oct. 1. While I'm at it, here is my mailing address:

I will let everyone know as their beetles get here. That way no one worries about whether theirs got in yet. Now, no return shipping is required, but I need you to send them in a container that I can return them in. I am short on Altoid tins right now and don't have 15 of them at my disposal.
Everyone that is in this swap is also included in my Christmas card swap. You don't have to do a thing for this one. I will be adding you address to my Christmas card list and you will each get a card and fly from my family.
Let the tying begin!,
