    I still need cjt's fabric and I think I still have 4 at home to do, but this weekend NOTHING was getting done not with that heat. OUCH. I'm hoping it will cool down a tad so I can sit for more than 2 mins and not be tired.

    Purple hugs and prayers.

    April, this swap has been better than any other I've done (no offense intended for hosts/participants of other swaps). Having done several swaps on the Board now, I've found that what sets this one apart is the variety it allows me in block choice and fabrics to work with. I enjoy this much more than making sets of 12 identical blocks. Variety is the spice of life, right? LOL.

    I sure hope to do the next one too, but honestly, I'm debating. When I joined the Board last year, I had one UFO and one WIP. Now . . . BOTH of those are UFOs and I have added the IRR,blocks from the Boomerang and 4 other swaps enough to make 8 quilts! Yeepers. Also with buying fabric for all of these swaps, my stash is outgrowing its space and I have nowhere to let it overflow. Having too many projects in the wings gets overwhelming for me and then the fun begins to dwindle. So . . . I very much want to do Boom 3.0 but I have to continue to think on it for awhile.

    this swap is REALLY fun, and what a fast way to get blocks done for a top. I would love to do 3.o but am also debating because I have SO many ufo's, wips, etc. so I really need to retthink future swaps as I would love to have some completed items in the near future.

    the board has really got me going but now I need to get some finishing in,lol

    FYI - LovingIzabella - I'm sending you an F8 that I forgot to mail you before.

    Neoma and Mosher92 ... I have mailed your blocks along with my F8.

Wasn't there a tornado that went through Norman, OK in early May? I've wondered about that and hoped that she wasn't affected. It's been in the back of my mind for a while now . . . .

    April I feel the same as Sew Cornie...fabric can be replaced, just have to pray for krazy and her family.

    I feel the same way as everyone else, I really don't care about my F8 from krazy....I just hope that she is okay!!! That means I have all my F8's from everyone. I just counted and I have 21 blocks that came back home to me.

    I'm also thinking about the 3.0. I have so many swaps to do and finish. But some of you did different fabric on the 2.0 and that might be the way to go.
