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.

    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?
    BrendaB
    Oh Brenda that is so thoughtful of you! Would you want six different HAB? I have one that I made as a workup for my pattern and I can make 5 others using different fabrics or I can do a couple pieced and a couple hand appliqued? Thank you so much (I promise I will mail yours from my job PO!)
    Send me a PM so we can chat about it :-)
    Hugs
    April
    April, count with one HAB from me. Let me find the pattern I used (home made) and allow me a couple of days. If you look at butterflyblue's picture, my balloon is the first one in the middle row.

    I'm so glad you had a positive experience with your first swap. These are the best people. Hope you will be in many more swaps to come. :-)

    My beautiful blocks came yesterday and my husband and I sat down together and admired them. Thank you, Deb, for organizing the swap. I enjoyed it and will try more swaps. Baba71

    Don't know if this is the right place to post but I got my Hot Air Swaps on Friday. Wow! This is going to be fun to put together. A couple of my blocks did not arrive with names on them so when I do the post of Thank Yous I will be short.
    This is so much fun and I feel I am learning more and more. Just seeing what others do is more of a help to me than I could have imagined. I hope my quality gets better.

    Some of the sticky labels came unstuck when they were hovering on the couches and tables..... and yes, this IS the place to post!

    Yay,
    Had a squisshy in the mail box today, floated all the way to the west coast !! Couldn't keep them contained in the package longer than the time it took to get to the car :)
    They are all Beautiful and will make a Great Quilt, that I will keep for me in honor of my first swap!!! ,

    Thanks to all who contributed !! (with or without a label)
    Deb for keeping us organized.. THANK YOU !! :)
