Barb,
The postage was fine, the contents also fine (and I like it a lot--thank you), the package not so much. Two edges had tears about 3" and 1". It was stamped "received in damaged condition," but I know that meant received from another P.O., not you.

Great suggestion DJmat. I know that some people forget to put their board name on the envelope.(i think I did) Using the city would be an easy way to find out who it belongs to.
Thanks DJ

Here you go Jane Quilter..... hope this helps ALL squares will be the same size
12.5" x 12.5" Block #1
12.5" x 12.5" Block #1
Block Construction(All blocks will be constructed in the same manner):Center square: 8.5″ square Border Squares: (20) 2.5″ squaresI like to assemble the block before doing the embroidery work–it’s just a little bit easier to hoop it up. Sew together 2 sets of (4) 2.5″ squares–these strips will measure 8.5″long–sew one set to the top and bottom of the 8.5″ center square. Sew the remaining 2.5″ squares into two sets of 6. These will measure 12.5″ long–sew one strip on each side of the block.

I know it is not the first but here is April Birdie Block
I will be out of town this weekend so I figure early is better than late.
Disregard the notes I have on it. I started using color pencils to map out my colors before I stitched.
