LOL i guess you are right there not having to go back for awhile to the post office.

I keep trying to upload my blocks but they keep failing. i usually dont have a problem. Is there anyone else having a problem?

I believe my pictures are to big. So will have to have daughter resend them to me.
Will try tomorrow hopefuly if not wont be till Monday.
I have four sets done one all cut out and need to sew. And the last need to put a border around it for the block ended up smaller than I realized. I actually have a few extras that i wouldnt use for the swap because didnt turn out like I want them too. Its been a tremendous leaning experience for me.

Thanks for the links. I will go check them out.

Awe I am so sorry that happened to. Yes the swaps are suppose to be opened up all levels. I know I don't meet most of these ladies at all. They are so wonderful to me and me seeing what they do keeps me trying. I may be trying the rest of my life but at least alls we can say is we did our best. ALL levels are welcomed here. Also anyone joining needs to understand we are all at our own levels. Like I think dhanke is so much higher than me. But she is so wonderful to play with a amateur like me. But I give my all 150% at what I do.

Please show me your cupcake blocks. Either here or send to my e-mail.

Okay ladies lovngrandma wants to know if she can add embellishments to her owl blocks she is going to make? I said I honestly don't care but I don't use a long arm either. So what do you all think of that. I figured she could just add a Baggie to each block so we could put it on ourselves. Let us know what you think okay.

I really like the ones in the second picture. I can see there's a few you could redo but when they say all levels are welcomed then they should of all been excepted.my levels are not up to a lot here on the board but I have never had any sent back. Either they were good enough or to polite to say they stunk. I have actually seen many of my blocks in quilts. as long as you do your best. I think one is interesting in its own way. Don't let them get you down . Keep your head held high and keep on going.

Okay back to the owls.
I had my daughter resend the pictures and hoping to get to them today. Just having a slow start.
How are all yours coming?
