Thanks Sue, we had a great time and was so nice to meet you. My sewing room however is a mess, we are in the middle of painting the kitchen & bath, so everything is so out of place, hope to get it all cleaned up this coming week for sure.

I finally got the last blocks out, most of you should receive them tomorrow or Saturday, again, so sorry for the delays, my machine is kaput, but luckily I won a new one today on Ebay - I can hardly wait to get it! I love every block I received from all of you, my wonderful swap partners. I've been making more blocks to go with them, because of all your creativity, you've pushed me to use more colors and to try more patterns. This is going to be one spectacular quilt, thank you all again!
Here are some pictures

your blocks with my first three additions

my Circle of Geese block, one of my favorite designs ... I would never have tried this one without seeing how everone stretched their imaginations with my fabric ... thank you all again and again - lots of hugs to one and all

Sorry for the redundant attachment, I can't figure out how to delete it, but then, it's worth looking at twice, your blocks all play together so nicely!

You're only saying that because you haven't seen the mess down in my basement - I will post pictures once I've managed to clean it up a little - but no 'before' shots until I have a decent 'after' to compare it to 
I'm so happy my blocks are rolling home, hope everyone's block is playing nicely with everyone else's blocks, it will be fun to see them laid out. I should be receiving my new sewing machine Tuesday, can hardly wait to start playing with it and learning how to make it do what I want it to do! Not sure if I will sign up for the next BOOM, might sit it out and do the one after that, but no matter when I BOOM, hope I can swap with all of you again, you were all superb!
Hugs
Sue

(All the quilts I have kept are either on our walls or couches) DH LOVES civil war history - in fact our entire bedroom is decorated in red, grey and blue.
Thank you all so much for participating with me. I really enjoyed it.
BTW, his birthday is the end of Oct, so need to get crackin' on putting it all together. (Of course, there is always Christmas...!)
