    Less than 1 1/2 hours left until July 15th!

    Can't wait.
    I still haven't completely decided what I am going to do with 84 blocks!
    I'm thinking one with 42 blocks 6 x 7, one with 32 on point blocks and 10 left for a wall hanging or maybe just one 9 x 9 feet with three blocks left for the border. Hmm I might have to make another block for all four corners of a 12 inch border.

    Lots of time to decide once the blocks arrive and talk to me.

    I hope we get some pictures before she starts packaging them up.
    :D

    OMG

    84 blocks - you must have scarred your retina because you only saw black and white for days.

    84 blocks- wow, now that's an overacheiver.

    I'm kidding about being first. I am just excited over this swap. It's the first one I've been able to really apply myself to and get them done in a timely manner and I tried to make them as bootiful as possible for their receipient.

    I can't wait to see who gets my blocks and what they do with them.

    As I said- I am just excited over this (gosh, I need to get out more, I have no life).

    SusieQuilt - you are so funny!!

    I really am looking forward to getting my blocks. I'm thinking giving the finished quilt to my daughter (13 years old) Her 8th grade graduation dress needed to be hemmed. And I had to cut off about 4 inches of - are you ready for this - BLACK & WHITE & PURPLE fabric. Purple is is favorte color. Now won't that be the best gift ever. She loved the black and white blocks, she loves purple and that fact that part of her graduation dress in the quilt?

    Barb, isn't it so nice to know you are surrounded by a group of people who get excited over the same things? I cannot wait to see what I got.

    Exactly! I still think I'll do your suggestion of using burgundy and olive for the borders/sashing.
