I've tried my best to do what everyone wanted, on some I had to go buy fabric and then that was a challage itself because I couldn't find the colors exactly to what I was looking for and just had to wing it with what they had. Do to back problems I just can't go from shop to shop looking, there was one block that just didn't come out the way I was hoping and I sent a note back with a FQ saying I was sorry I messed up her fabric but I didn't know what else to do....I was using embroidery design and it was off in size and I just couldn't get the design that I wanted to work, I still sent out the block with the extra FQ...

To me, April makes it clear this is a friendship swap and the maker has full control of what they make of any f8. The notes are a jump-off for me and I try to honor what someone asks for. But... as we all have done, sometimes that isn't possible but I sure hope the receiver likes whatever I've sent.
I have loved all the blocks I have received in the other boom and in this boom too. It's the thrill of the squishy in the mail that has me wishing the mail came twice a day
