Received my box from Moonrise late last night when I got home after running errands and then child to praise and worship practice. I will post photos when more time. Please forgive me. I love them all. You gave me a great broad selection which willb e awesome and there were a couple of them in there that I already own. Love that! We have the same tastes in good fabrics.
Glad that apron was in there. I so don't want to do another one of those. They are cute though and if you do a light batting inbetween when you quilt it up, they are soft and drape nicely.
Have to go, payroll, payables, and reports all due today.

Frenchfryqueen - yes, its' camping (Airstream type). There's 2 yards with a repeat of about 8 inches, 4 repeats, one Mountains, second the desert, 3rd is highway and 4th is woodsy. It would be cute as curtains in a camper. Want some? Could be a side trade here!

Enjoying all the pics of boxes that have been received. Lots and lots of great stuff there ladies. Mine will be going out in the mail this coming week. I have out of town family and a family reunion and had things to get done for that. Daughter will be here for a week and then I will be getting back into the groove of normal activity. Take care everyone and have a great day.

This is so funny ladies. Here it is:
The box I received from Paulswailia, I have already used the Thimbleberries fabric because a friend needed a border fabric for this quilt she needs done by this Saturday and she did not have enough money or time to go and buy something when she had dropped it off for me to quilt. Yep, it fit perfectly for the border and I have only a small chunk left. Good thing I did not do 6.5" borders and only 5". thanks paulswailia.
Then, I am doing some owl potholders and sure enough, I had to go find some accent fabric for this fat quarter that I received a couple years ago for a birthday (which is this month ladies 50 years old) so I went digging and in the fabric I received from moonrise, I got my wings, eyes, and beak for the owl. How cool is that. When done I should post a photo for you ladies to see.
So, the moral of this swap, one quilters trash is another quilter's treasure. Already making use of the fabric.
I also got that cool yellow with the leave print in it. yep, it will make a perfect backing for a runner I need done real soon for the fair.
