Hello, fellow swappers. I have sent out all of my f8's. So in the next week, everyone should recieve them in the mail.
Next week I wil start working on making the adult blocks for everyone in this group. One side note, I forgot to mention in my little note in the f8 envelopes, please don't use the color white either. Bye for now and Happy sewing!

Just checking. I sent finished blocks out and have not seen any comments that you have received them. Perhaps I missed them. I just want to make sure they are not lost.
Blocks sent out 7-22 to Alikat110, Gaijin, ljdugas, & NanaKathy55.
Blocks sent out 8-1 to AnneMixon, goldendog55, & missgigglewings.

Thanks

Gaijin, hey girl you sure are quiet! I hope life is treating all of you well and that your blocks are arriving finally. I know last time you had so many who did not send to you so crossing fingers you receive them all this time! this group is really on top of things so I doubt you will have any troubles at all.

I love the blocks that I have received and after clinic will take a new updated group shot to share how lovely they are all and how great I think they will work together. I know I sent some pretty interesting lol fabric but combined its turning out pretty cool its a quilt for my son in law to be and I think they will like the earthy browns, the 'cool' green that is in the fabric (they are both in their early 20's) and the touch of yellow is just enough to liven it up. not too much which is why I requested just the browns or the green. I am going to thin frame them with cream then add another frame with the green in it .. Asa will love it. :) even if its weird fabric.. thanks Travelinggramma for mentioning it lol.. yeah its weird. I agree but it was a whopping 3.00 a yard and its quality fabric and the colors were what I bought it for not the pattern. phew!

Those who have mastered paperpiecing have my utmost respect. That mug is an AWESOME block.

Hey Elisabrat! Talk about good timing! I received your block last night and it is lovely! It came with a small bonus pieced block, leftover fabric, and a postcard from your new home!

Thank you so much! Haven't had much time to be on here, work is busy this time of year!

behndm, I think I posted way back that I received your block-it was actually the very first one I got!
Thank you, it is beautiful!

Gaijin

yes I can do PP - but ask me to cut a squares & triangles and piece them together and have them come out the size it says - I have great difficulty with that! So that is one reason I love all of your blocks - cause I can't do it!!

Gaijin - Thanks I must have missed it. I just worry about the PO gremlins attacking.
