I've been lurking here and admiring all the great blocks you've been sending and receiving! I hope to be joining you as soon as I'm caught up with current commitments. Great work, ladies. I also have been thinking about how to keep track of who sends which blocks. The photo and file idea is a great one. I have also found that it is hard for me to keep up with that system with the boomerang block swap...esp when doing 2 groups. So now, I keep a strip (scrap) of white fabric near the door along with marker and small safety pins. As soon as I bring the block in I write the name, swap and date I receive the block, cut it off and pin it with safety pin to the block. Then I can take photo later and not worry about just who sent it! I know it helps me. Hope to be signing up before long! Connie aka Chigger.

Tealfalcon was my partner in another swap. I thought you'd all like to see how she used the floral log cabins and embellished them in this beautiful piece.

So many beautiful blocks Dotty can't wait to see yours done. I'm getting all my exchanges caught up then I'm going to start sewing my pinwheel together. I have 3 things to do for the 15 which I hope to finish this weekend. Had to do those yearend things I'm later then usual this year. But am just about done with that.i will post a picture when I have them sewn together.

Hooray!! The apartment is all clean - we didn't go out to dinner, but some friends came over and we had a lovely evening.
I just got up to clean up my mess of a sewing room and took some pictures.
I'll share!

Messy view from the door -- you can see the two spots I've already cleaned up.

MESS by the shelving unit. All of this stuff had deadlines but I've missed most of them. Thankfully the folks are understanding.

MESS by the window. Somewhere in here is the graduation quilt I need to start on today. Also that stack of paperwork needs tamed. =(
