I tracked my package and it was delivered, whew!! The astronaut in charge of this shuttle is Mark Kelly, who is from my home town of West Orange, NJ, where we still live. Submitting beads has made me feel very connected, even if it's not mine that are selected, it will certainly be some of my on-line friends! Jeri

Can't wait for the email notifications. Will you all post after they get sent? I can hardly wait to see what people made up.

Since we are posting, here are my little "Astronauts"... I chose 3 out of the set for my entry, but I sent all of them. Hopefully they arrived on time - I still don't know if they did!

shelley, I LOVE your little shuttle, and the murrini you had to have made for the flag, as well as the speling around the space ship.. man thats a lot of work. and I was whining over a face murrini.
Kristina, I LOVE your critters with the space helmets lots of detail in a small space
I am shocked at the work shown so far, and beginning to seriously sweat if one of mine will make it. I also sent extra beads that were not part of the contest for the kids. I am so enjoying seeing evrery ones beads.. so much imagination and skill!!!!
Hats off to all!!!

I don't think you have a thing to worry about either. You should be proud!

ALL of you deserve to be selected, there are no two ways about it! Each one has posted wonderful work here!
Thank you so much for telling me which are your favorites... I made little Frogs on Space Shuttles, but I didn't send them. Here's a full picture. I actually made Twin-Teddys, but I didn't submit them as a set.
