I am working on my lay out, Any suggestions? I might just wait a few more weeks to see what else I get, but I am really liking the look~[ATTACH=CONFIG]339497[/ATTACH]

sharon b 06-02-2012 07:38 PM

Well I finally finished the last block - so the rest will get mailed on Monday - if you want to sneak a peek I have posted them on my Facebook page
https://www.facebook.com/media/set/?...8643892&type=1

I have to post a couple blocks I received this week - will do that tomorrow , really tired tonight , sorry :(

Phannie1 06-07-2012 03:09 PM

No one has posted in a few days.. Has everyone got their blocks sent? I am still looking for one then I will have recieved all of mind. I will be getting my next top together for my wounded warrior projects. My Guild will be having a 50 quilt drop off the end of August. Watch for my post on that for we will have two quilts in that group.

Thanks again, Phannie

dotcomdtcm 06-07-2012 03:11 PM

I am waiting for a couple of blocks. The work is really lovely.

sharon b 06-07-2012 04:42 PM

Mailed the last of mine yesterday- sorry for the delay - life got in the way so I didn't get them out last week - but they all are out now :)

Scrapper 06-07-2012 05:24 PM

Sapdoggie.........I received your block....sorry I'm late posting. It's so pretty..never thot about putting blue and green with my chosen fabric.....it's so bright and cheery! Thank you so much........

So glad you like it. It was a challenge to go through my scrap totes and match things up. I did have fun though.

marytoddliz 06-07-2012 10:23 PM

I have still not received 6 of my blocks from: calquilter, sharonB, maebe42, linnaete, Wendsy , OK Darla. Looking forward to getting them. Booms are fun Swaps, and I am amazed at the amount of talent that is always shown in here, you ladies all rock!

sapdoggie 06-09-2012 05:50 PM

Got a great block from OK Darla today ! Thanks - It will look great in my quilt.

Quilt Mom 06-11-2012 07:24 AM

Wee seem to be in the doldrums - or maybe the eye of the storm? LOL! I have received all but three of my blocks. And the season of children coming home has arrived for me. So I will not be posting much until a month passes and my daughter leaves. Have fun quilting!!

dotcomdtcm 06-11-2012 07:31 AM

Well, it's time to prepare your fabric for the next boom, so you can get it out fast!

Difergie 06-11-2012 08:48 AM

no more booms for me until I finish what is piling up! Only missing one block which is amazingly good....some people seem to think the deadline is when they have to start BUT this group has really been on the ball!

marytoddliz 06-11-2012 11:00 AM

Yeah, no more booms for me either. I loved doing them because I have really learned a lot, and I have realized sometimes it is not about perfection, it is about trying. I am in two groups this time and still wait for 6 blocks in each group. I have found some of the other swaps and enjoy doing them also.

Enjoy your children being home Quilt Mom, it is too soon they are all grown up and having their own families, but the good thing is then you have grand children to sew for!

Have a wonderful day

sharon b 06-11-2012 11:03 AM

This is only my second Boom and both times I have stayed with the smaller groups- but really am enjoying them :)

marytoddliz 06-11-2012 01:56 PM

I received a block today from Sharon b, Thank you it is perfect for my quilt top. What is the block called? I know I have seen it before but don't know the name.

I really enjoy the boom's also, I just have so many projects now that I think a little break is in order. Plus I joined our local quilt group at Church making charity quilts. I love making them, it is so awesome to see the look on the faces, well worth the effort. But truly it is no effort since we have so much fun getting together every week. Time flies when we are working, laughing and just enjoying the process. It kinda reminds me of how it must have been when the ladies had quilting bee's.

sharon b 06-11-2012 02:22 PM

Most of the blocks I made were the Grecian Square, I made one Greek Cross , one Card trick and can't remember what else - oh one I just made up from scraps as I went along :) Dotcomtcm sent in more than one fabric so She got the card trick and the extra made up block

Phannie1 06-11-2012 03:17 PM

I like the interaction that the block swap does for me. It puts so much more in to this site if I feel I have a friend. I look for your names, and look forward to see what you say and pictures you post. I keep to the small groups so I do not over extend myself but I enjoy all I have recieved and do. I can't wait for the next boomerang.

Thanks again for swapping, Phannie
