Have finally gotten the adult blocks in wrap, note wrapped, envelopes all addressed and double taped. Did however forget my name label inside the wrap - but note says who i am and also on envelope.
Tomorrow the following will go out:
Abbys Mom, Elisabrat, Gaijin, jaydee3, Lestrong601, moonwork42029,OKDarla, Roseisrish and urgodschild.
Have worked on my curves, and the dreaded "scant" 1/4". I still don't get it. When I learned to sew it was always 5/8". Then wen I went into quilting it was 1/4". now it is a scant 1/4"/ WHY??? I want my quilts to hold up and if you don't do alot of top quilting then the seams will loosen easier.
Just needed to vent - but would really like to know why it is so little allowance.

Sorry I couldn't help track it down either.

Thanks, Moonwork, that is definitely my fabric. I have no doubt that Quiltingmommy is too organized to be making a mistake (her system is foolproof!) so I must have had a mind-melting day somewhere. But honestly, I don't recognize the black/spots fabric! Does this mean my stash is finally in control and I am just a pawn in it's hands? I must defend myself from it and hide the scissors. Now where did that rotary cutter go....

I sent adults out in two different mailings so far. The first mailing was quite some time ago. I got acknowledgement from Joanelizbay and travelinggrandma but still waiting on RoseIrish. Rose if you don't have your adult, please pm me and let me know. I'll check to see if I have enough material to make another one.
The second mailing went out Monday a week ago. There were 11 adults. I got confirmation from OldCatLady, moonrise and moonwork42049. The other 8 are missing in action. If you received an adult and your name isn't here, please let me know you have it. If you already posted and I missed it, I'm sorry :-(
The kids walk the adults to the mailbox as I finish them now so they will be coming in dribbles. Good exercise here in the desert.
