    Kristen,
    How long do you think it will take you to finish your top? Will we see it before Christmas?

    Well, the blocks are all swapped out and ready for the PO tomorrow. I will mail them Monday so you should start seeing them by Wed (earliest) and all should be delivered by Sat (latest). We ended up with only 14 swappers, most of those who dropped out felt the blocks were too hard for them to do. I hope you like the selections - all of the blocks are beautiful.

    I hope so. I an idea of how I want them to be laid out. I made one of the other blocks that will be in between the star blocks and it was really simple. I just may not have enough of the white fabric and I have been looking for some more so I may have to purchase something else. How about you do you think you'll get yours done before Christmas?

    I doubt I will finish mine before Christmas. Finally found a job, so will be working full-time now...that will cut into my quilting time. But hope to have it finished by 1st week of the New Year.

    If we all sent the priority rate shipping postage of $4.90 shouldn't we all see them on Wednesday?

    Me too. I started a new job last week. LOTS of training all day in class for 4 weeks...I haven't worked a full time job since my 5 yr old was born. It's been a shock to the system for sure.

    I would certainly hope so, but with the holiday packages starting to fill up the delivery trucks, those going from NY to the mid west or the west coast MAY take a day or two longer. I have mailed packages on Monday and it was Fri or Sat before they got there. go figure! :roll:
