Love my 2.5" square, great for fussy cuts!
So glad you are on the mend, Irene!
Time is close to mail to our host, so excited to be in this swap, so many great blocks!
hugs,

I posted my blocks on Monday so fingers crossed they fly safely across the waves to Judith.

My sewing machine has headed for the repair shop for a bit of attention but at least she behaved herself until I had finished the blocks.

I will be interested to see how many are in this swap once we get to the sign-up deadline.

Hi ladies, here's the beautiful blocks that ljdugas sent in. Linda, they really came out beautiful.

I have received blocks from 5 ladies so far. With more on the way. It looks like a lot of people are joining in the fun.

I want to let you know, I am receiving a lot of 6 1/2" blocks. This is fine and well within the rules. But, it takes 4, 6 1/2" blocks to make a 12 1/2" block. So, what you receive will not make into a very big quilt. Just a FYI. So, you may want to make a few special ones for yourselves. I also would suggest that everyone (from here on out) if possible send at least 1 set of 12 1/2" blocks. This is just a suggestion, not a demand.

Thank you. This is a great swap!!!

Seven more days until the sign ups close. And then you just have one more month to wrap up your blocks and get them to me by the deadline. I can't wait to see your blocks flying to me. I've already received some great summery blocks. Hope yall are having as much fun as I did making my blocks.

Wouldn't you know it. I ran across some really cool summertime blocks today in my patterns. Where were they when I was wanting some inspiration? Eek ... I can't believe it.

RedGarnet222, isn't that how it always is, you need inspiration and can't find it easily and then just when you don't expect it, it comes right at you. lol.

Yes, I have already sent off my blocks. What a disappointment. Oh well, maybe I will use a couple for fill in when I go to set the top together. Now just to make sure I don't hide it from myself between now and then. LOL!

Oh that pesky Block fairy. LOL!
