    I'm impatiently waiting for my blocks. Got them in 2 days the last time and haven't gotten anything yet. Hoping they come soon. I only live in New Mexico. By the way I would love to have an all snowman swap! I love snowmen!

    Hi everybody; I got my blocks this afternoon and it was so much fun looking them over, more than once. Then I opened up a 2nd envelope with more blocks and I thought oh no, Red made a mistake. However both envelopes with were addressed from me to me so that was not possible. I thought some more and I remembered sending in 12 - 12" quilted blocks really early and then the second batch of 12 blocks was sent about the deadline because I had been ailing and was worried not getting them done in time. Well anyway due to my senior moment I do have 24 lovely blocks from 24 lovely friends, enough to make a divan quilt for next year. While I enjoyed doing the GGS the Halloween quilt, the Christmas one is mine. Thank all of you so much.

    I got my blocks today as well as skitter. I love all the blocks that i have received and can't thank Red enough for doing this block. I am hoping after the holidays it will slow down enough so that I can put some of my swaps together. I overdid it this year and decided I needed to make my four kids as well as my sister and her two kids all quilts (and didn't decide that until I knew they were coming up to visit us here... Around September LOL) I am a very slow quilter so this is definitely a challenge, but I am getting there. I can't wait until I can make one of these for MYSELF!! Thanks again everyone!

    Snownannie ... I sure hope you receive yours tomorrow. I mailed them all at the same time, so I don't understand why the mail is so scattered as far as delivery goes. Strange, huh?

    Thanks barb32 and brookmarie, skitter and rwquilts for letting us know you got yours. I hope you have fun with them.

    Received my blocks. My husband went to mailbox last night to check for them. It is a nice selection. Now to get them done so then the kids will each have a Christmas quilt . It was a concern when I heard a bit of squabble over the ones I have and that they were going to take. So funny. I think I will give them when they leave home. Sounds a bit more extended. Love my girls. It makes you feel good when they want to fight over which quilt they get. They will be numbered, put in a hat, and each will then get whatever number they pull out of hat. Thanks Red for swapping.
