Libster, you are about to get 40 degree nights in NC? Mississippi is not that far away... send some cool weather down our way please! I'm really looking forward to some Fall weather.

Can't wait to see y'all's quilts as you build them. I opted to wait til Autumn is done and get both groups' in one shipment. I'll be working on other stuff in the meantime.

I am so looking forward to it too. It's been so hot here for the last two weeks, almost 90 degrees. Saturday and Sunday will be in the 70s in the daytime and the 40s at night. I'm so ready to make a crockpot of potato soup and drag out my long gown. I LOVE fall weather!

I am so happy you are excited!

She has no idea she's getting it for Christmas. I'm going to do it QAYG. I already have everything cut, just waiting for the blocks to get here. Her backing is a beautiful swirled soft pink flannel print. Perfect timing since our weather is cooling down drastically at the end of this week into the 40s at night. Pics to come when it's done. I'm excited about this one, can you tell?

TA-DA!! Every perfect one of my beautiful blocks are here! They have been unpacked, drooled over, and promised a nice warm massage with my iron as soon as it cools off some today.
Seriously, Ladies, these are the best blocks yet. They all measure 12 1/2". I want to thank each of you for being so particular with the size and design of these blocks. It sure makes it sooooo much easier when you're putting them together.
As always, a special "Thank You" to you, Janice. Without you, there would be no Boom Swaps. What an absolutely dismal thought that is to me. We love you for selflessly donating your time to make the Booms happen for our enjoyment. You are the BEST!!

I second that emotion! Janice for president!

She's got my vote!

I'm not as disciplined as Libster! I had a blank wall & I hung them as I took them out! They smell so beautiful & fresh! And they look MAHVELOUS ladies. Now I'm just going to sit here and gush over them! Amazing! Just amazing!
Thank you all so much. We'll see by winter's end if this is Chloe's or if it might be for GramE. ❤️ ps-if you don't see yours it's only because my wall isn't big enough for them all at once!
