LEAKUS ~ I KNOW WHY YOU COULDN'T FIND MY BLOCK. I got the most interesting envelope in the mail YESTERDAY!!!! You are not going to believe but check out the pics below. I am almost afraid to resend it. I am going to take it to the po and show them and make them put it in a envelope and send to you. I should not have to pay again to send it. I am going to show them your address label, too. So I hope my friendly clerk is working tomorrow. How bizarre, uh?!?! I will let you know tomorrow when it goes out tomorrow.

no such number?? but it is.

I gave up on the remaining 3 blocks and made one of my own for the quilt I'm making now. I've decided this type of swap is too drawn out for me. I like to have short deadlines...It's been fun seeing all of your talent though!

nurse bonnie 02-06-2011 09:49 AM

An update of still missing blocks:

barbsbus
dawson.tracy35
letsquilt
michelle ~ I know about you
NorBanaquilts
OdessaQuilts
quiltergirl80

Could you please let me know if you plan to send a block or not so that I can start putting mine together. Thank you for your consideration.

Here are pictures of the first of three Quilts of Valor I am making from our swap blocks. Unfortunately, the colors don't show up as well as they should.

Good Job Cat18- Excellent block. Nobody will be able to tell that so many people work on your quilt. Great job everyone!

letsquilt 02-07-2011 04:42 PM

Cat18, that is beautiful. You did a great job on it, Im glad to be a part of it.

KarenBarnes 02-07-2011 08:56 PM

Cat, the quilt turned out wonderful! Glad to have been able to contribute to the cause!

Jupiter 02-07-2011 09:50 PM

I accidentally cut a couple blocks too small. The easy fix is to cut off a little bit more and then add another strip to the block. Added design feature and an easy save!

hugs, Jupiter

1. I have some rose blocks that i don't know who sent them to me. My daughter said she would help me post the blocks I have gotten. Hopefully in the next couple of days. I am missing 5 blocks. If you haven't sent me yours please pm me and let me know. I Have talked to Mbogenpohl and send me yours when you get time no hurry. I am also waiting on Newtoquilting. I have down i have some that may be the ones i haven't recieved but I have to go thru them later.
Being my first Boomerang I didn't realize i needed to keep better records of the blocks and F8s i have gotten. I learned my lesson and have done better with 4.
I am busy finishing up no. 3 and have gotten some done on 4 I plan on having all of 3 done this week and all of 4 done by the middle of next month.
Just wanted everyone to know yours is coming. I haven't forgotten anyone.
These are the ones i have left to send.
Goldendog
Jupiter
Knismith
Moonrise
Purplemen
Quiltinggirl 80
Quiltingturtle
Quiltin
Shaysmema have both done and leaving tomorrow.

I have learned one thing doing this I just fussy cut the second block. And i will never do it again. For the second time i am struggling to make something out of it because i screwed it up. Went 2 places today trying to get some of the fabric and can't find it anywhere. If anyone out there has any of Goldendogs fabric left and would send it to me i would be grateful. I haven't asked her because i know she probably needs all she has left. I was trying to get her 3 done because i have 4 done and wanted to get them sent to her. When i cut my blocks i cut them to small by 1/2 inch. Stupid me. I knew better.

I promise I am keeping better records with no. 4 I have learned my lesson.

Cat18..beautiful!

mbogenpohl 02-08-2011 08:57 AM

Cat you did a beautiful job on the quilt. I mailed your block out today so hopefully you will have it by the weekend!

LovingIzabella 02-08-2011 10:29 AM

Love the quilt Cat! Beautiful
Karen & knl I am sorry that the swap was not as fun for you as it could have been. I do understand how you feel and hope to swap with you both in the future some time :-)

As for those of you who all have the same list-I am working on it. I know mbogenpohl is working on hers as is Odessa. I am sending an envelope to new2quilting to get the fabrics and get them back to you all. I have contacted the other ladies and will keep you all updated :-)

I thank all of you again for participating in this swap and for doing your part to make it great.

Hugs
April

Beautiful! Thanks for sharing.

Jupiter 02-08-2011 11:53 PM

Hi April,

You have done a great job in keeping us all moving forward. I suspect that at least some of the time it felt like "herding cats". Thank you for not giving up on us.

I'll see you in another Boom sometime..

hugs, Jupiter, aka Marilyn

kwiltkrazy 02-18-2011 05:03 PM

Wonderful quilt, lucky soldiers.

nurse bonnie 02-18-2011 07:13 PM

It is another beautful quilt for a very lucky soldier. Thank you Cat18 for doing these for our service people. God bless them, keep them safe and bring them home soon.

KarenBarnes 02-18-2011 07:36 PM

Very cool quilt Cat18!

ksea 02-19-2011 05:18 AM

Awesome quilt cat, you just made some lucky service person very happy. God bless you for doing this.

brenda 5 02-20-2011 11:20 AM

I am excited i am sending my last 2 blocks out tomorrow. At least the blocks i got f8s for. I am still waiting on newtoquilting and mbogenpohl (she is sending me 3 and 4). Tomorrow Goldendogs blocks from 3 and 4 and my f8 for 4 is going out and goldengirl80.
I still am missing 5 of my blocks. Maybe they will come sometime.
I want to thank everyone for such beautiful blocks!!!!! I am making some 6 inch blocks to offset the rows.
