Okay all you "Pilots", as of 9:29pm Thursday, Sept 9,the last of the blocks have been put in the box to fly to the PO first thing tomorrow morning.
Hot Air Balloon swap is now completed! This was a fun swap, I hope your balloons land safely and you are happy with them. We had various levels of skills and pattern designs, and I have to say that I was thrilled with ALL OF THEM. Thank you for participating in my swap.

I am anxiously and impatiently waiting for them to land. It will be so much fun to see which ones I get. I'm thinking my grandsons will love balloon quilts for Christmas.

Ahhhh Judy, the balloons blow in the wind.....no telling exactly when they will land, but those mailed Tues should be there by Saturday at the latest, and those mailed Friday should be there by Thurs at the latest......

Thank you Deb for hosting this-I really did enjoy doing my balloons-even if they never did land :-( I hope they show up at your house at some point or find their way back home. I am writing a formal complaint to my local postmaster as this is the third package (not for this board but in total over the last few months) that has gone MIA. I usually use the Post Office near my job to mail anything for the board because they are AWESOME but due to circumstances I had no choice but to mail from my home PO on this one! We shall see what happens.
Hugs
April

April, I didn't know about your HAB plight. I would be happy to share mine and make a few extra so you can still be part of this swap. It is so sad that you did the work and went to the expense. I can send you six from my set, you could do three for you and three for me, and I could do three for you and three for me, and we would each have one complete set; OR, I can just send six from my set and we can fill in with six blocks we make for ourselves. Sounds like a pretty good plan to me. How about you?
