LJdugas....hope your surgery goes well and will you not be able to sew for any length of time. OUCH. I am now developing arthiritis in my hands and it is not comfortable.

I am so happy that when we send out packages out with tracking. You neveer know where the blocks are going to go.
For example: when I was visiting my friend in NH, just across the MA border, I sent a doll quilt to my partner who just happened to live 30 miles away. This doll quilt took over a week to get to her. It went to Springfield, MA for two days and then over to Boston for a few days before it went back up to where she lives. Sometimes I think that our blocks just want to see more of the world. That said, tracking helps us see where those little darlings are going.

Ok this is just a little nudge....we have about a month left until all blocks must be sent out by April 15. Gee I just realized isn't that the day that taxes have to be done too?? If they are mailed by April 15, I should get them two to three days later, unless your blocks want to take the scenic route. Then I will sort them and mail your blocks out and they should get to all of you by the end of April.

I am really loving the scrappy blocks that everyone is doing. I am also excited to see what all our quilts will look like when we get our blocks back. It's like looking at a puzzle and trying to imagine what your blocks will look like put together.

Mistakes? Who makes mistakes? ME!! That's who!! I made 2 star blocks with 2 1/2" squares the other day. As I did the final pressing I realized I had two square in a square blocks, instead!! Grrrrrrr!! I ripped out all the seams and re-did them! Sure, I could have just made different, but that is one of the things I have learned here. Follow through. I used to get discouraged and the project just went into a box never to be seen again. Now I fix it right away and move on. I just wish it didn't happen so often!! But then I am sure we all do!

Nelco, Your link says: invalid. I looked at your NNN Boom album, but there's only one picture there, not the pictures of the blocks you sewed for the this boom.... Where was it you posted the pictures? I had trouble posting too, until someone told me about using the 'Go Advanced' blue button (that works for me). After you click on it, you can use the 'Manage Attachments' blue button to add pictures to your post in the thread, or a post in an album. Did you try that way?
