If I didn't have so much family in Maine I wouldn't have ever heard or known of them either.

The final package for Summer has been shipped today and should arrive Monday, a day before the deadline. Woo, hoo. Great job, everyone. That means i will ship out your blocks as soon after receipt as I can. I'm going to try for Tuesday but it may be Wednesday. I will let you know.

Soon, Summer, soon!

I have 100 Blocks in electronic form & it is amazing. Ten copies. But I wish I could figure out how to bookmark the ones I like. Just had a thought, maybe a screen shot. Any advice? And sorry for being the tardy one, I'll try harder the next time.

I'm not overly computer savy, if it is pictures you are wanting to save, what I do is have a FB album I have set to only me (able to see it) and titled it quilt inspirations and when I find blocks or layouts I like I save the pic to that album.

Gram, I have all the paper copies of 100 blocks. Im old fashioned..I mark the ones I want to try with a post it note and can see the pattern anytime...just hard to remember which book it is in with so many of them. I like their blocks but there are alot I wouldnt attempt, like paper piecing etc.. :)

I have a big question. I'm not understanding what it is this group does. Say person A sends in 12 fat 1/8s. Do they coordinate? Do they all go to one other person who uses them to make 12 blocks for person A? Or, do 12 people get an 1/8 and make a block using that and their own fabric? Then, does Person A make one block for 12 different quilters, or 12 blocks for one quilter? How do you know what other fabric to use - just something that goes with theirs?

I'm really intrigued, I just am not sure I know what's going on!
