Okay, done sewing, trimming, signing, pressing and squaring up all the little siggy squares! But :oops: I missed the time the post office was open today. So now I will have to wait until Tuesday. So sorry... Wanted to get those out to you today. But at least they are ALL done!!!

I love clicking on here and seeing everyone still busy posting their progress.. It's great..

All that signing was the hardest part I thought..

I hope our sorters are planning on taking a full weekend to recoop and recover, that may not be near enough time! This is a LOT of work coming your way. Thank you again for taking on this ginormous job.. Wish I could help.

I got the brainstorm to sew them first while working on a graduation autograph quilt for my friends twins. It works like a charm!

Boy dog, I wish I would have thought of that!!!

Still trying to get back to the sewing machine! I HAD to take this weekend to go appliance shopping. My DH finally decided it was "time" and he was ready to put forth the effort. Our stove has been trying to die for the last 6-8 months! The oven finally went out.... still had the burners though.....and have been using them for 2 weeks I think. The dishwasher started doing badly about a year ago. (I have been washing by hand for that time) So when the oven went, I guess he thought it was finally time.
So.... this is good, but really tiring, and confusing. We are headed out to Grand Island, 45 miles away, to look again. Cant seem to find what "we" want(read "he wants") here in town. He seems to want more features than I need.
Wish me luck! THEN TOMORROW IT IS BACK TO SIGGY BLOCKS!

Finally, my blocks are finished with a few extras. I am going to the post office tomorrow to mail them. Yeah.....I guess I should send them confirmation also? How do we know when she gets out package. I am such a worry wart when it comes to knowing if it gets there. Know what I mean? Oh well, confirmation notice it is. Happy quilting
