Well, it appears our hostess has done a wonderful job!(Thank You, Thank You, Thank You!)
Let's hope we all see some great "I Spy" quilts on this thread before long......
I myself tend to be a procrastinator so the expectation of a quick turn-around helped me to get my charms out. Hope I can get my quilt done in such a nice timely manner.

They are labeled, taped to DEATH! in laundry baskets-
waiting to be mailed TOMORROW!!! .. yes I said laundry baskets!!! it was the only thing i had that could handle the weight of the envelopes...
OK now I think I went thru a brand new roll of packing tape.. I saw how the packages arrived and I was going to make sure that if they went to he!! and back the tape would keep the contents inside.. :lol:
So warning, you will need a sharp object to aid you in opening your packages !!!..
It was fun, I loved looking and feeling all the fabrics, I 'suspect' some were not washed..((waiving finger))) tisk tisk tisk... doesn't bother me any since I don't like to pre-wash anyhow..
I will host another swap no doubt.. should we do another 5 inch or move on to 10 inch squares??? Suggestions anyone??
Haha, haven't mailed these out yet and already planning another one!!! I must be crazy!!!!

They are in the mail and on their way home!!!!!
My postal lady was most appreciative of the revenue you all helped her on.. lol.. It is a pretty dinky post office with a whoppin population of 189 so today was a really, really, really good day for her..ands I was only there for an hour mailing them out.. lol ... lol .. I hope you all don't mind but I borrowed from 'peter to give to paul' as some packages needed more funds for postage.. And a swapper- yes you know who you are- Thank you sooooo much- put in an addt'l $5 bucks for swap mom and it helped cover some too..
You should get your packages in a few days.. hopefully by Friday latest...
Would you guys like the tracker numbers posted??
