Boomerang Besties...for my addy you will not need to fill out a customs form if it is just an envelope. Hopefully none of you even had that question for my address. i am in the Air Force and the address should be written exactly as April posted it:) Thanks and very excited to begin recieving fabric:)- I'll have mine out tomorrow I hope once I see about the labels.

I think I just found my focus for 5.0 and here I was thinking the other day when someone posted that they knew what they were doing for 5.0, I was like are you serious? I can't even decide on this one. WAY too addicting...lol

Do you have the link for Leakus's quilt picture? I looked under the boom3 thread and under pictures, but could not find it. I also loved the purple fabric that she used.

To those of us who are in both groups:

I'm mailing both F8's in the same envelope to save a bit on the postage cost. I included a note saying what I've got in mind for each of them, so hopefully nobody thinks the F8's are to be used together in the same block. :mrgreen:

....

Assuming DH can take them to the post office for me today (not sure on the postage for the "two-fers" ), nearly all of my F8's should be outta this morning. Yay! There will be 9 left to mail, and the fabric for those should be here this afternoon via UPS, according to the tracking number. Yay! A squishie! I'll get the fabric washed, cut, and packaged up this evening, and the remaining 9 should be on the way in the morning. :)

Hello Besties!

I am sending 11 little squishies off to their foster homes this morning - please take good care of my babies! The rest of my squishies will be out by the weekend...

I am SOOOOO excited to get my first squishie in the mail and get started!

Was just wondering if we might have two different topics from this swap instead of just Boomerang 4. Since we have two groups there are going to be a lot of posts and I know for me it would certainly be a lot easier for two different topics.

You and hubby are awesome!!! Thanks so much for everything.

Everyone have fun and be prepared it is addicting. I would have loved to been in on this one but again the grandbaby taking up more time than i would like, and well, if I make 2 quilts out of the 2 boomerrangs I was in that is 4 quilts to quilt and I have another one that still needs to be quilted, plus a dear jane table runner to finish so I have a ton of UFO"S to do. Have fun enjoy and happy new year everyone.

No no no no such thing as a better hostess-we just have more people (and I tend to be a chatterbox soooo)

Questions again...
Should there be any fabric left over, is it proper to return it to the person who sent it?

If I have a lot left, is it wrong or unacceptable to make more than one block for a person? <- not saying I'll be able to do that for everyone, but I was wondering if it was allowed

Traditionally, if someone wants their leftover fabric returned, we return it. They will let us know either here or they will include a note. Otherwise, it is yours to keep. If you want to return it anyway, feel free. lol I, for one, do not want or expect any of my leftovers back, but I will gladly return those of others as long as I know. :)

As for 2 blocks, yes, you may send 2, but you are only committed to one and we each only expect one in return. Anything else is a lovely bonus, but again, not required.

April, please correct me if you can state this better. :)

No need for correction you got it completely right and thank you so much for helping me out :-)
