Turtlerouge....first off....you do NOT need to apologize since you have done NOTHING wrong. Second, it will all be fine. You have done such a great job with the swap and the fact that you agreed to do it is SO appreciated. Now...on to the missing blocks:
1. I guess you have PMed them and are not getting a response. If that is the case, you need to feel ok about moving on without them. I know I had one person in the swap I host not answer my PMs and I also noted that she hadn't been posting as normal so figured that something came up. Sure enough she had been VERY ill so it was fine that we had gone on. She actually ended up sending her partners their magnets anyway poor thing.
2. It won't help for you to do more than 56 blocks because that will just mean that we'll end up with duplicates of yours. But....if we are only missing 3 and you can't get them replaced, maybe we could just all make 3 blocks and have friends from quilting classes, family or even friends from the board here who didn't get to participate in this swap to sign them.....or have a middle block or something.
3. Again, it will be all be fine. I can not imagine that anyone on here is totally caught up with all their WIPs and sitting around waiting for this. I know I am SO far behind it's not even funny!
Thanks again for everything you are doing!!!

As you all can see, excluding myself, there are 3 people whom I have sent multiple pm's to please send me your blocks and they have not responded as of yet.
There was 1 person who wanted to sign up but at that time the swap was closed but now she is part of our group. she wwas fast and took only 3 days for her blocks to come to me. Thank you.
I haven't got my name filled in as of yet, due to I'm waiting to see if I have to make more blocks than my own 56, but don't worry, I will have mine done before rehensburger gets here tomorrow night to help me swap them out.
Since this is my 1st swap and as you can see, I'm running into alittle trouble getting all of our 56 blocks together.
I'm not sure how im going to do this, but I'm going to post on main for 3 people who may want to help out asap to make them and send them to me poste haste.
So, I beg for your patience. I will do everything in my power and borrow some from admin and moderators on how to handle this situation.
Thank you for understanding. I'm sorry, I feel really bad that people did not follow thru with their committment and you may end up with getting a couple more of your own back.
