    After all this you still want to? I would think by now that all your dreams are in red/white/blue.

    Deb, Mine are going out Tuesday morning too. I'm sorry they were not mailed by Friday, it just didn't work out. I have two sets, Spinner and Twelve Inch Basket.

    rubia, S
    end them in! we all have to start somewhere. I would be happy to have one. When I first started to quilt I was so proud of just getting one finished. I look back and it was pretty bad. LOL But you have to keep at it and it will get better. I received one in a swap another group ( home group) and it was crooked and to small. I just squared it up and added a narrow border and it was fine. If this was a perfect world it would be very dull.

    Deb, thank you for posting the pictures. This is so cool! It must be so much fun to get to see all the blocks and also overwhelming and exhausting! I think I see some blocks that I haven't seen before. I hope you are having fun with all the work. Thank you for taking the time to do this. The pictures are wonderful. Thank you again. :-)

    I will also post the newest ones to arrive as the come in, I have the first sets all ready to go as I said before. I do apologize if some of you receive sort of the same combinations. I was trying to keep your color scheme and styles consistant. Some of the blocks just jumped right next to others and said they wanted to play with them...so heeding the threads of little blockettes, that is what I did.

    Okay, in going over the roster that was started, and noting those who say blocks are being mailed, I still have 16 who have not said the blocks were coming or they had to drop out. I will PM those 16 of you, please let me know if there is a problem. I want to get all of them completely mailed on Monday, June 7th.

    Looks like I've got some measurement problems. My blocks are ending up 11 3/4" to 12" and none larger than that. UGH!!!

    Wow Deb,

    You have done a lot of work! I was thinking about hosting a swap but I think I will let the pro's do it.

    You have done a great job!
    All the blocks look awesome.
    I am already planning my sashing color for my quilt.

    Thank you again for the great job you have done.
