Joanne,

Thank you! You are a sweetie! I have really enjoyed being in this swap! No one else I know quilts, so this board is an ideal way to mingle with people that share your passion!

Great blocks ladies! I love how you are not afraid to use all those patterns together. As you noticed on mine I have a hard time mixing patterns and tend to stay with plain black and white with maybe one or two patterns. I haven't tried a scrappy quilt because of that but I love to look at them.
Can you believe that there's only 3 more weeks until all the blocks are mailed?
Time sure flies.
Mine are done and will go out in the mail this week.
:D

Here is what I'm going to use for sashing and boarder. I may make 6 more blocks for my quilt so I can use it on our king size bed. :D

Very pretty fabric. I can't decide on mine until I see what I have to work with. Soon! Time is flying.

I got all of mine in the mail today. They should be delivered by Saturday. I used two flat rate envelopes and enclosed two more envelopes labeled, postage paid and ready for return shipping.

:D

Now I don't know what to do. I made my set, got them all pressed ready to trim the edges and they are a smidgen short of 12 1/2. I wouldn't want someone elses blocks that were not per our rules, so I'm deciding to make another 12. The ones I got done are nice, and I have a plan to use them. And only 2 weeks to go. . .
