I have several people let me know they mailed. So, I will keep you updated ladies.
Happylab, I too am working on a set of blocks for my quilt also. I too have them all cut out. Three more to go. And, they will be all finished. I will have them finished before the switch out.
At least my blocks are finished for the swap itself. I'm sure your blocks will be great. I will try to get photos posted for you if I have time.

I also sent you a pm when I got back from Sarasota. I had to drive DH and DS down to pick up their truck for work. I was down there for a few hours this afternoon. I also stopped at a JoAnn Fabrics while I was down there. I found my sashing and border fabric for both the quilts I'm working on. I am making one for DSIL and one for our home as well.

I sent my blocks out today. All 5 sets. Sorry no pics. I still need to make my 5 blocks. I have the blocks cut and some 1/2 made. Just need to finish them. I hope whoever receives them, likes them. I really had fun making these blocks. Now back to my 70 9-patch blocks, which need to be out by Friday.

Ran into some technical difficulties...as an accountant you'd think I could add...will finish up after work today and will take them to the post office first thing.
FYI...always do a test block before you cut out all of your fabrics
...lesson learned!

Aw Sue, that has happened to all of us. Also, I know on my first block, I cut twice as many half square triangles as I needed. (I know, what was I thinking. But, I have put them aside, I will think of something or some block to use up some of them in the quilts I am making!) I look forward to seeing what your working on.
