GramE, I loved this fabric! Nothing "marked down" about it except the price. Cannot wait to see what you do with it. In the meantime, enjoy your view!

Not a great pic, but it is on the wall & I can spend the coming day & probably weeks looking at this beautiful gift! Thank you all so much. A rough patch in life can be made smoother by nineteen friends who send you wonderful amazing gifts! I want them all to be the centerpiece. A rejected fabric on the bolt marked down rack has turned into a beautiful comforter!

Merry Christmas to all of you. :thumbup: :) ❤️

Oh, my stars, NK, I'm sorry to hear your news about your husband's frequent hospital trips. And the defibrillator problems, what a terrible experience for hubby and for you. I hope he will recover quickly now that he's home.

I'm so pleased you like your blocks.

Good grief, NK! That poor man! I sure hope he's feeling much better since they've reworked his defibrillator. I hope both of you can get some rest now that you're both back at home and you can get some drool time in with your blocks. Slow and easy does it.

My blocks are here! They were delivered last night at 8:01 pm. I have never had mail delivered that late before. Haven't had time to look at them yet, but I know I'm gonna' love 'em.

My package came last night. Did not open yet, but thank you Janice for being a wonderful Hostess and everyone for participating. I will get on these as soon as I feel better.

Oh you ladies are just teasing me, mine haven't arrived yet

i also went to Connecting threads bought, some blenders to get ready for next boom. I have way to much yardage to justify buying more but I did.

Tonight hubby and I are going to a traditional Norwegian meal, main corse is lutefisk. A first for me and hubby is insisting I at least taste the Lutefisk. Has anyone else tried it?

no I haven't tasted it, but it is cod so for me that leans the scales of trying it a bit to the positive. Norwegian foods never seem to have words that make them attractive, or tempt you to eat them. Oreo just had a new cookie flavored Swedish fish candy. Fish & candy aren't compatible in my mind.

Has your hubby had it before? Is he say you have to just try it because he knows you won't care for it?

I've opened my blocks and I love them every one! I'm loving how they all seem to be the correct size. I've just finished feedback ratings for everyone. If I've left anyone out, please let me know. Thank you all for a great swap. And Janice, you is the bestest (as always)!

Kassaundra 12-02-2016 01:28 PM

I finished leaving the feedback for everyone, if I missed anyone let me know. I've been very gun shy about leaving feed back since messing up Libster's last swap, but think I was able to complete it this time w/o any accidental negative buttons getting hit.
