Since it seems to be taking forever for Jacquie to receive the mailing I made on December 13th ..... I'm thinking I probably should jump in and get Boopers project off to Jacquie right away.

Your row is not due until Feb 15th,
We early birds just couldnt wait, so we all agreed as a group to change our mailing deadlines and it was ok w/bookworm. So dont let our over-achiever, obsessive, anxious, eager, compulsions to complete this in record time overwhelm you.
I think all you really have to do as a group leader is co-ordinate your group ie: to pick a name for your group, make sure all the addresses are correct and just be there to answer any questions that might come up. If you don't know the answer, just send bookworm a PM and she will help you. Also if any of us are online we would be more than happy to help you.
Just take a deep breath, relax, and enjoy your experience developing the rows as they come to you. One nice thing about seeing the pictures is you can start to develope an idea of what you want to add to each persons quilt top.

I also am a bit unclear about whether our first row should have already gone out in the mail... or is the first row the row we did that is supposed to go out by February 15th?
I am feeling like I will be letting down my group by being its leader since I am such a newbie at this.

Oh, My Gosh ..... What a beautiful job, along with a fantastic row to add onto Jacquie's row. I've got my stash of Batik Fabrics sitting and waiting for Jacquie's Row Robin to arrrive and it's my turn.

I'm anxious now to send it on and get the next one to work on. I'm so glad I got into the first group as I really want to keep things moving!
