Thank you all so much for the compliments but I really owe it to my machine, she is a perfect lady! I name all my machines and when I first got this one I named her Greta, she is Swedish, I think Greta is a Swedish name LOL. I name everything, my husband thinks I am a bit odd but now he understands me a little better. He knows thier names so he knows which machine I am talking about.

OK gotta go. My time on computer is now limited to 1/2 hours and I think I went over that!

Super cute candycanes Craft!

Marybeth, say hi to "Greta"! She's doing great work there.

Welcome to Ccorazone! Still looking for one more person to give an extra goodie to when swapping out these guys...who will it be I wonder?

I have one set to go! I changed my mind again! I have these really cool old Santas that I think are reproductions of the 1800's but were made in the 1970's I got them to make little dolls for my kids when they were young, might have been late 70's or early 80's since my daughter was born in 79... LOL my brain is mush... Any way I took the Santa's and Appliqued them onto blocks, they are so cute and I have 6 of them so the extra one is for our wonderful Hostess.

And I have my angels done. So tomorrow I finish the last set and put them in the mail!

I promised my Hubby/coach that I would not do any more swaps until after the run (Nov 4th) So I will be around a little but my computer time is 1/2 hour. I did that myself so that I will have the time I need to get ready for our fall shows and get my marathon training in! It is the typical me thing over doing Everything!

But I really wanted to do this swap. I will check back often, but quick! Tomorrow I will leave some more pictures.

Thanks to everyone for all the kind words,

Marybeth

Can't wait to see the angels and the santas Marybeth! I haven't decided on all my sets yet but after the candy canes are done I'm going to do a stitched snowflake and go from there. Hey Marybeth, maybe if you picture your squishie with all your swapped blocks waiting for you at the end of the race it will motivate you!! hehe

Love your blocks Marybeth! Super cute and how sweet of you also! I admire the running for sure. It sounds like you're pretty disiplined to me! I think you'll be the first one with their blocks finished, including me. Great job!

I will be gone for a few days, just as a heads up to everyone, but will try and check in but in case I can't, I'll be back on Tuesday to see what cha'all have been up to? I did one block finished for my next set. Hope you like it?
