    When I send packages to my Aussie friend I have to but I didn't have to do anything special for just the envelope. That's weird isn't it.[/quote]

    Last swap I had filled out a customs slip for the APO (I have sent books and DVDs to APOs needing the custom slips) and one for Canada. When I got to the post office I needed the one for Canada and not the one for the APO-I asked why and the postal clerk said it had to do with the weight of the package. A regular envelope (1 F8 or finished block) may not needed while a heavier envelope may. Could just be the difference of a few ounces. :-)

    Also recieved F8s from:
    Craft phanatic

    I swear the PO clerks are clueless on some things, just take it with a wing and a prayer, don't they?. I didn't have to fill out anything for Austrialia, Canada or the APO. Same thing with the 1 oz. and the 1/4" thickness -- you can never anticipate what they will come up with! Go figure!

    [/quote]Yes, I had to fill out the customs slips for you and the two in Canada and the military address.[/quote]

    Carol Hupp, have you received my F8? You are the only USA one I haven't crossed off my list yet. Thanks for letting me know.

    Here are my fabrics that I will use in my quilt.

    Difergi, your envelope won the draw this morning. Have my thinking cap on! Will start your block today.

    This is my theme fabric,
    [ATTACH=CONFIG]197796[/ATTACH]

    the fabric furthest left will be the backing, I will be sending out the green & pink for the blocks.

Tomorrow I will pick it up, wash, press and mail out on Monday.

    This is the first time in over 10 years of ordering fabric online that I experienced a problem, & hope it's the last!

    Anyone who knows my work, knows that hand applique is my expertise. Just love it.

    I plan on doing hand work for everyone, unless you do not want it. So anyone who would prefer not to receive an applique block, please PM me so I can accommodate your quilt.
    I love your fabric and I love applique :-) I am learning applique myself and while slow at it I do love it :-)

    That block is called Lady of the Lake 2 from Quilter'sCache and thank you :-)

    Judy I am glad you like it as well.
    I have received my first two beautiful blocks from PaintmeJudy and Moonrise. I will post pictures as soon as I can find my SD card. I love them both they are perfect-thank you so much!
    Also I have several F8s that came in recently that I have to update from whom. Will do that this evening.
    Hugs
    April
