OK< I have to send out a stern word to all you overachievers out there! Finished blocks already sent back???? What is that all about? I barely managed to open my squishies......

Just kidding. Keep up the good work. :-)

That is how I am doing them too....but I can't promise the quick turn around that some of you have. I dont have much chance to sew during the week so I figure I will get blocks planned and maybe cut during the week and sew on the weekend.

I'm going by the date received.

I'm attempting to sew in the order received, but I ran home for lunch, picked up thte mail and had SEVEN squishies! Sorry, I don't recall who they were all from! <smiles>

And now I am debating what to do with the first one I received. The plan I had will not work as the fabric won't "allow" for cutting what needs to be cut. So, it's on to PLAN B, and I just don't know what that is yet.

Curious question: is anyone considering doing the same block for everyone/for half the list? Or are you all planning to do 35 different blocks? I am considering of picking out a few and repeating, but I don't know yet what I will do.

Happy Snow Day to everyone!

I let the fabric tell me what it wants to do. There is a good possibility of having repeats though.

I agree, sometimes the same blocks works great with different fabric's. I'm gonna try & make as many different ones as I can, but sure I will do a repeat.

I am trying to do lots of different blocks but it def depends on the fabric ;)
Norbanaquilts...I KNOW IT!! That will be great!
I am planning on doing them in approx in the order received...excpet for Canadians...someone else suggesting bumping them to the top of the list and I agree.
I absolutely LOVE the spreadsheet!
I am trying to get as many out as soon as possible b/c I am a little intimidated by letting too many stack up, lol.
I am just waiting for 4:30 to come around...ugh....I have one of the latest mail times =(((
