    I hope that was ok snownannie. I try not to send blocks back, but, it happens once in a while by accident. I figured out there were 124 sets of six or 744 blocks to swap out in this swap. I spread them all out in the dining room and go for it! I try and add coordinating blocks so the quilt comes out unified.

    Have fun and post a pic when you are finished snownannie. I know it is going to be cute!

    Thanks Red. Yes, that was okay. I'm sure it is hard to keep them straight.
    Thanks again!

    I just had to put my blocks together and wanted to share with you guys the top I made. Thanks again to all those who contributed blocks to my quilt! I did have to made some adjustments and make some bigger and some smaller and add some of my own, but I'm very happy with the outcome. Thank you for looking!

    Looks really nice. Great job. You were definitely excited to get yours. Sometimes inspiration just comes to us and we have to jump on it while it is coming by. You did good.

    Got mine a few days ago, nice selection and I love them all. It will be 2012 project. I did notice they smell smokey but otherwise it was a wonderful swap. Thanks Red for all the hard work; I know it must have been exhausting and is much appreciated.
