    So sorry TG.

    So I received my blocks. I know this will sound sappy but I am going to say it exactly like it happened. I sat opening the baggies of each package (I did 3). I had tears in my eyes. Each one was beautiful and well made. Best swap for me this year. They are all so wonderful. I cannot wait to put them together. My goal it to make all my BOOM blocks into quilts this year. I have never put any of the BOOM blocks together so I believe I have like 15 quilts to make.

    Thank you for your work on making my lovely blocks. I cannot tell you how much I appreciate it.

    My nephew tie-dyed me 4 yards of material for the next BOOM. Thought it would make for a pretty quilt.

    Got my squishy today. The blocks are wonderful. Was a bittersweet reminder of Jaba when I got the un completed package. Kind of like the missing airplane in a military formation.

    stay safe and healthy my friends. See you in the next boom.

    Can’t wait for my boom blocks to arrive, y’all making me jealous.

    Hubby has made it a priority to make up my little sewing area, Yesterday he added 2 lights above the sewing table. It’s going to be tiny and cramped but will be so welcome that sewing machine won’t have to be set up and taken down every time it’s being used.

    Tracking is now showing my package as "in transit--arriving late", so it's sitting on a shelf somewhere again. Our postal service is so messed up, we haven't received ANY mail for the last two days. We usually have a boxful of junk mail, every day.

    Terri, your hubby is sweet to work on a sewing area for you!

    Terri- Glad your trip to your new home was uneventful even though it was long hours driving. Relax a bit now.

    I got my blocks today. Thanks everybody for such beautiful blocks. Every Boom I think you've all outdone yourselves! Stay safe and warm. Until our next Boom.

    Janice, thank you for all of your planning, work and time making these Booms possible for us to enjoy, 'specially with you going through surgery and recovering throughout this one. You are the best!

    Good evening, Boomers. Just a quick pop in to say "hello" and wish you all a good weekend. I'm happy to hear that more of you have received your blocks. I know a couple of you have packages hung up in transit. They'll get there soon I hope.

    Been jumping from project to project today. I have a couple of scrappy ones I'm finishing up. Also I'm determined to get the binding on a quilt that has been ready for months and months. It will be a good test of my shoulder.

    Have a pleasant rest of your weekend!
