Reba, I'm sending you a HUGE HUG! So sorry to hear about your friend. How devastating. I can't even imagine.
Janice, I am so thankful to you for your gallery.
I had so much fun joining this group! Bonnie knew I would have fun and she was so right! She's to be commended for all her work to make this happen.

Bonnie no biggie at all on my package shipping later
Reba sending hugs, so sorry about your friend’s diagnosis but glad you are able to go see her. She will love the quilt.

I am overwhelmed by all the beautiful blocks I received!!!!!!!!!!!!
I showed each one to my husband and he loves them as much as I do!
Anna, those applique blocks reminded my husband of the movie "How to Make An American Quilt" with the woman who made the yellow roses block to honor her beloved dog. We've seen that movie a million times lol.
THANK YOU EVERYONE!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

I recd my block package but haven’t opened them yet. Been busy with some family stuff but I’m sure to get to them soon.
Reba, I’m sorry to hear of your good friend’s diagnosis. Went through it with my sister and it was so hard on her. How lovely that your LA could quilt your Halloween top in time for your trip.

So glad you enjoyed the swap, SusieQ! Are you hooked? Because we do this twice a year.... I know you'll be back.
I checked the tracking info and almost all of you have received your packages today. Two were still "out for delivery". Terri, I think yours may be one day behind. I hope you are all delighted with what you receive.
Yesterday I put together one of the two kids' quilts I am making with my Caterpillar equipment blocks. I had found the cute gray CAT tracks fabric to use with the blocks, and had just enough to sash, border and bind both of the two quilts. Here's a photo of the unquilted top.

While in Memphis I bought this Billy bookcase from Ikea, in the tallest size, to help organize my stash. And... it's full already. I have got to stop buying fabric and use more of what I have! (Isn't that the Quilter's Lament?)
I spent half of June in Memphis and made this window seat cushion and two bunny pillows for Ivy's room, upstairs in their Victorian house. Her daddy built the wall of shelves and window seat (storage), put up chair rail, painted and a paper hanger has come to wallpaper above the chair rail. This child lives like a princess in her fairy tale room!

SBG- you bet I'm stoked for the next one!
You knew I would love it and you were right. I put them all on my design wall to shuffle and I'll make one more to make an even 20.
I love the things you made! My son has a similar nook in his kitchen but it's like a half hexagon ( hope that makes sense) and asked me to make a seat cushion but I really don't have the skills for that. I felt horrible saying no because I make them anything they want! But he was fine with it. He knows I'm good for the other stuff lol.
I bought two units last Fall from Ikea and they've been such an organizer! Money well spent for sure. They have 4 shelves and 2 deep drawers. I also got a sewing table for my other machine that has 4 drawers. I love it.
Nothing like the right furniture and tools to make our experience a good one.

Received my blocks today but I haven't had a chance to look at them. I've been working on a quilt for our grandson for Christmas and still want to make a quilt for our grandaughter too. I would love to have them finished before the next swap begins.
Thank you to Bonnie and Janice for all the hard work they do to make this swap fun and so well organized. All of your time consuming work is greatly appreciated.
I would love to have Ivy's bedroom, it's so dainty and calming.
Thank you to everyone for the lovely blocks you have made. Susie, so glad you will be with us once again, it's a great swap to be hooked on.
