You girls are so funny.......I am still waiting on 4 sets that have been promised. I received a notice late Wed (today)from the PO that a package is there for me - will get that Thursday.

All of the blocks have been swapped out with the exception of 8 sets now - waiting for those other 4 so I have a set of 12 to send. Yes,I did fondle and drool and ohhh and ahhhhh. Please keep in mind with all the different colors that I did try to keep like with like, with a little variation mixed in.

Also keep in mind that this was open to everyone of all skill levels, and I am glad that we had two new quilt swappers who decided to join! Lightening57 and her sister Wonda took the plunge. I am also pleased to see that there are several repeat swappers....your work is always so nice.

So, that being said, as soon as the last 4 sets come in, I will finish up! First batch going out Thursday!

I know the temptation of otuching. And drooling. I was a mananger for JoAnn's in Ohio. I was in charge of arts and crafts department and unloading of the trucks. I was able to see every bolt of fabric before it hit the floor. Sometimes I hid bolts waitng for a sale and then use my discount. (Did I just print that? LOL) But someone would need something in craft aisles and they'ld be like'Where is Peggy?' And I would be over in fabrics touching it all and I woould duck down and go across the store and popup and say' I'm here'. I am a fabric toucher. Everyone have a nice evening.

Ladies, I haven't heard from the last two quilters who were on the roster as of 9:30pm tonight, so....I have finished swapping out all of the blocks. As of April 7, this swap is officially CLOSED OUT. I sincerely hope you enjoy your blocks!
