Thanks, When I opened that one up I was up stairs and my list was down stairs and I just did not get it recored and did not remember who sent it. I really love the paws in it and plan to use it as a background fabric. Thanks again, Phannie

Finished my LAST block today for TLambing and will try to get to the PO to get it mailed ... if not today then tomorrow.
If there is a prize for the most pieces per block .... 169 pieces
If there is a prize for the least number of additional fabrics used ... zero
hee hee hee
Teresa ... the block is slightly oversized because it's difficult to plan overall size with what I did. I'm going to leave it oversized and let you trim it down - that way you can center it which ever way you choose and you'll have nice crisp edges.
This swap has been so much fun. I got to try my hand at a lot of different techniques and stretched my creative gene using fabrics that I would not ordinarily have used. Of course I also love receiving blocks from folks - I've been happy with ALL of them so far!!
thank you everyone!! Mostly ... thanks again April for hosting this wonderful swap. Pretty sure I'll do another one at some point in the future.

O.K. people...someone must post something...This makes 4 in a row of me!
Question:
Does anyone know if Savannahrandons is participating? I cannot contact her and have not seen her posting since the beginning of the swap. Does anyone know?

I was born and raised in San Diego and Ensanata, forgot how to spell it, so I know your weather. Right now it's 6:38pm and it's 17.3 degrees, pretty cold here, fireplace burning and blowers going to help with the heat. 1 of my son's live out of Bellingham, WA so know about that rain. I just envy your humidity, dry skin here, but when it's 40 degrees there it's cold. Have never lived in Sacramento, just passed through on travels.

Well, I guess I'll stop complaining that I'm cold! Burrrrrr I'm complaining at 55*
I bet it's beautiful and white there to go along with your cold, almost makes it worth it??
I've never been to WY. I started my life in VA and then to the West coast, Daddy was Navy.
