Red, I am in and shipping out 12 packs today. While the dots are so colorful and fun ( very happy looking little baggies! Can’t wait to get more and make ? something that is Happy and makes me smile!) I just have to say... This time cutting 5” squares almost did me in! Holy moly! This alone makes me want to invest in a GO cutter! Kudos out to all you quilters who have been doing this a while......

I am mailing out today-Red can you let me know if you get a quarter with my money wrapped up? Pretty sure I got it in there but just found 2 random quarters on my desk and not sure if one rolled out of my money or if someone just put them there.

Fizzle: you'd love your go. But I'll be honest, I rarely use mine for this swap, since I typically use fq's. My ruler stretches the length of the FQ, so I really don't have issues. But for strips? OMG....what a Huge bonus that is! And I have some pretty cute dies, too. We have a local place that lets you rent their Go for $15/hr or $7.50 for 30 minutes. That includes using their dies. Perfect for those times when you want to do....say...a train, but know you'll only make one of those 
SO totally worth it in my book. But then....I'm picky about how I place my material in there so there is little waste. I hear some people are not, and they think it wastes a lot of material. Not so, if you are patient
Stafar: I'll take a look. No worries if it isn't there. I did a swap recently, and was so used to being the hostess, I never mailed her my money. I had to do that in a separate envelope. I couldn't figure out why I actually had cash on the table. Then it dawned on me. Mercy. She was kind and gracious about it, and that's my motto, too

I just saw this swap. I know it's the 13th, but may I still sign up for the swap today?
I've never done one before but I am so crazy about dots that I thought I would try this one.
I understand if it's too late. Thanks.
