    I'm making the little individual packets. Some came in with 14 of the bricks together. I'm making little packets of 5 different ones.

    I have them all spread out on the floor of my sewing room, nice and neat. I will take a pic before the swap starts. It's so cool to see them all out of their packages.

    Since it's calling for snow tonight and tomorrow morning, I should be able to finish them out and pop the packages in the mail on Thursday.

    Stay tuned....

    My floor is clean! Which means- the packages are in the mail!

    I ended up with 1 packet extra so I recounted and came up right again. So when you get your package, count them for me. Maybe my Penn State education is starting to slip.

    Can't wait to see everyone's quilts! Please post and let me know you got your package.

    Thanks for participating- it was fun to see all the variations of black and white. And thanks for the special fat quarters and fabric tucked inside. And all your lovely notes- we have a special group of people on this board and you are so nice!

    You deserve the small tokens and more, Barb, for the work you did! Now I'm gonna be camped out at my mail box, and there's no mail til Tuesday. Like my neighbors needed another reason to think I'm odd...

    I ran to the post office to get them out yesterday- it's only open until noon and I had company show up unexpectedly. I finally said I've got to go! The girl at the post office said it was quiet until I came in with my 2 grocery sacks full!

    I had fun- hubby now has a new appreciation of the board- he thinks I have an addiction but he realizes I am not alone. :)

    I left my blocks on top of the dresser in my sewing room. I'll start my quilt once i finish this UFO. It will be hard not to dig right in.
