    Got a squishy yesterday from Quiltlin and one today from LovingIsabella. Should have some mature blocks headed home in a day or so.

    I am sew happy you are inside, nice and warm. That looks like quite a mess. We got about 4" of snow last night but the roads are pretty good, had no problem getting to work today, DRAT!!! wanted feet not inches, how will I every get these blocks done if I must continue to go to work? :lol: 8-) :lol:

    Where the road "disappears" in the photo, it goes sharply downhill. It's the only road in/out of the subdivision. I bet we don't have mail service today, either. :cry:

    (DH was out snapping photos of the road. He didn't purposely take one of the mailbox, but I noticed it while resizing the photos, and thought it would be fun to post! LOL!) :wink:

    I went and took a peek, actually a good look, the blocks are wonderful. They will be very happy with your work....

    I will probably have these mailed out tomorrow, along with the f8s for both swap groups. I don't think my mail carrier really wants to pick them all up from our box, so may need to take a trip to the PO.

    Overnight, our weather warmed up, its raining, and our snow is all melting. I heard on the news this morning that the only state without snow today is Florida! Even Hawaii is having some snow??

    The mail did run today after all! Woo hoo! I went from being squishy-less to being The Queen Of Squishies! :mrgreen:

    I haven't looked at them yet (just got up and I'm pre-caffeine - LOL!), but I snapped a quick photo with my cell phone. I'll open them shortly and confirm whose F8's have arrived. :)

    I also got one of my own envelopes returned to me in a "body bag" ... just a mangled partial envelope with no F8. I think it was headed to PokerDiva. It'll go back out in the mail tomorrow (luckily I have extra fabric - whew!). :)

    The one from Obsessed is "Brasstown Star". I made a bunch of those for the Black/White/Bright swap a few months ago. Fun pattern! Gorgeous blocks, y'all! :thumbup:
