    I forgot: the name of this block is "Blockade Block".

Now to get on to finishing my blocks and to get them in the mail by July 1st.

    Nancy and Carsy love both your blocks. Mine went out earlier this week.

    Dagny I am envious you get to see all these great blocks but I certainly don't envy you having to sort them out and divvy them up.

    You're right. I have the vicarious pleasure of receiving a "gift" in the mail every few days. I'll post another picture as soon as I get a few more.

    Don't worry, though, your gift is coming soon - and it will be worth waiting for.

    I appreciate that so many of you have sent the blocks in early.

    If there's anyone still on the fence, you still have time to sign up and get in on this. Likewise, if anyone needs to drop out, just let me know.

    I received two sets of lovely blocks today from Nancy, Lake Charles. Is that "Nancy in Louisiana?"

    Please be sure to include your screen name with the blocks. Thanks.

    Ooops! Sorry 'bout that -- yeah, they're mine. ( I had this strange urge for cherry chocolates the whole time I was making them.)
