Received today, thanks! Great blocks! :thumbup:
It's not a big deal, but my envelope was one block short. I made some extras for myself, and have some fabric left to make more, so it's no biggie at all. Somebody got lots of extras! :mrgreen: (I wouldn't have even mentioned it, but saw your post about the missing blocks, and was counting to see if I'd received any extras.)
Thanks for hosting the swap, and also for taping the envelope flap closed as requested. :) For some reason the post office's adhesive doesn't seem to stick well for me. I've had so many of their envelopes that arrived half open or completely open! Not sure if their adhesive just isn't sticky enough, or if very hot or very cold weather makes it un-stick, or what.

At first I did not know how to use my beach blocks, but then I realized...duh... they don't all have to go in 1 quilt. Thanks everyone.
