Hey, whatever you do, don't send those cooties this way. No need to share them, you can drown them, freeze them, or anything else, just don't ship them.....lol

- JaneCat
Hope you guys like them or at least follow the belief that I tried my best and it's the thought that counts. My skills are definately not perfect "yet"...but I'm very grateful for the opportunity to participate and get pratice that has meaning.
Hope everyone is well. Today was a little bit better...aired out my bedroom, lysoled it down & washed all the bedding, hopefully the cooties are going away!

Must put it back in envelope and concentrate on the blocks for Judy, Rejenea, and Bookworm ( skulls, just can't wrap my brain around this one yet!) but after that Ksea and Nurse Bonnie are in line; just to name a few of the upcoming completed blocks that will ship this week sometime.

OK....first...if you are doing both groups you will see this same post on the other group as I will be copying and pasting over to that thread. So...here we go...
I NEED HELP!!!! Seriously, I think we need to do a tute on how to cut the fabric...LOL. I originally cut all my fabric too big. Figured that out really fast when I ran out so fast...LOL. No big deal...I was cutting Fat QUARTERS by mistake. So, got more fabric and used what was cut wrong to cut them right.... Long story short, here is my issue...for some reason I am ending up with HUGE waste. I now have 17 pieces of my fabric that are about 7 inches by 18 inches. Is anyone else having this much waste? I have all but 12 envelopes totally ready to send out and my LQS is out of the fabric...if that tells you how much I have messed up on cutting this! Anyway, so I can either send something different to those 12 folks OR send the smaller pieces of 7 by 18. Please let me know your thoughts. Thanks!

Oh...one other question but this is for the blocks that I have ready to send back. I am putting them in the same sticky saran wrap that I wrapped my F8s in....but...on the little paper/label do I put my address like I did on the F8s or the person that I am mailing them to, since technically it it their block now?

Received Mistilz ( envelope open and light fabric very dirty. I am going to soak and hand wash to try to clean before I make your block.)1/25/11
Ladies please note the PO ate Missgigglewings fabric but was able to send a mangled envelope to me in a plastic baggie.
Received grown up block from Carsey and will post pick this weekend. Love the block and thank you.
