I am having a few problems with a border but hope to get it sorted out this weekend, then sandwich and start quilting. Mine won't be done for another couple of months.

I am supposed to get my quilt on Monday! I am so excited. I really need something to curl up with and to comfort me. Looking forward and then she can post pictures for you unless she wants me to.

Yep, it went off today! And Monday is scheduled delivery. To give you an idea of what it may cost you- I chose to send it first class and paid for delivery comfirmation with a total of $15.75. I could have saved $4 by it taking a week to get there, but I wanted to know it really was there and not be worried where it was! The quilt was a little bigger than 60 by 60, so may weigh a bit more, too. I'm nervous, but excited, too! I think I'll have a new quilt real soon and can't wait! I'll post photos when it has arrived, but QuilterMomma won't be in it!!

This is all so cool! QuilterMomma and JillnJo, looks like you'll get the "prize" for being first to physically swap. Looking forward to photos, ladies!

Sorry I've been in absentia this last week or two. Work has picked up. I also just sublet an office (was working out of my home) and I'm much happier (but more focused and busy) to have my work OUT of my house. Unfortunately (?), that means such distractions as my quilting room and the quilting board, are now behind me.

A few of you have communicated with me that you have not heard from your partners. I just want you all to know that I'm going to examine the whole picture in the next couple of days, confer-- when necessary-- with PatriceJ, and then see what can be done to resolve the issues or find new partners for those of you who have been "abandoned".

Given the high number of people who signed up (62), it's not surprising that we would have a few glitches along the way.

Hang in there and we'll figure something out.
