I don't have any batik in my stash, and I know that I need some for the Boom, but I can't afford it at those prices.

So, can ya'll help me out with a website or something I can order a 1/4 yard, or a 1/2?

try this out...a couple real nice ones

nancia 10-21-2011 07:18 PM

moonwork--- have you got room for a third? i used to go fishing with my gramps! some of the best times of my childhood!! my dh and i took our kids fishing alot until the oldest caught his younger brother by the eye brow. poor kid had a close up of the ugly worm all the way to the hospital! he lost all interest in fishing after that!

joanelizbay 10-21-2011 07:28 PM

Block and F8 going out to Jennifer tomorrow. Have 4 more to finish and 6 F8's to send out. This swap seems to be really going alot faster than the last one! Also block going out tomorrow to moonwork42029 along with F8.

nancia 10-21-2011 08:31 PM

joanelizbay-- you are so smart piggy-backing the f8 with the grown up. never would have thought of doing that! of course, it only works when others send theirs out first. this boom is going much faster than the last one. i wasn't counting on that! i thought i had lots of time but i can see people want to get it done before the holidays really hit.

lol...if you can get here by about 9am CST, come on down.

We live about 6 miles from Kentucky Dam and have a pontoon so Dad can get on and off of it easier. In the past I have picked up Dad when I got off work and went fishing (just on the bank). One day I went to toss my line and caught the back of my jeans...my Dad had to cut my jeans to get the hook out because every time I moved the hook jabbed my rear end. I don't think I've ever heard him laugh so hard.

I know what you mean about them finishing up the blocks so fast..it's great. I have all of "4" finished and thought I was doing great.

joanelizbay 10-22-2011 05:34 AM

I didnt aim to "piggyback" the F8's but it has worked out great! My twin brother was back home, lst time in 20 years the week the swap started so I was late in even buying my fabric to send out. My sister in law was looking at all the blocks I have stacked up from the last swap and the blue/white sampler blocks Im making and said she loved purple so I decided to get purple to make her a quilt! God sure has a way of letting us know what to do! Anyhow, before I bought my fabric people were sending their F8's and I was making them and just decided to send my F8 at the same time! I think I have 6 to mail out Monday is all and thats pretty darn good out of 35 people! Ive only gotten one finished block and havent seen but one or two post that they have received the one I made them yet. Hope the post office gremlins arent eating them! Way to go ladies!

Garnet1265 10-22-2011 05:39 AM

Joanelizbay,

I received both the purple fabric and my completed block from you yesterday with my late afternoon mail. I wish they came earlier in the day but guess I should just be happy they come at all. Will the post the picture once I upload to the computer. Thanks!!!

Moonwork,
I sent out the F8 on 10/1/11 and it would have been a light golden yellow with leaves and berries or a fall print with leaves on it. Please let me know if you cannot locate the little sucker and I will need to send you out some pieces I have left of the yellow print. I have none of the fall print left and only pieces of the yellow. Thanks!

Kristin:

I just double checked all my baggies and I do not have one from you. Please do send some of the yellow if you wish. If the other one shows up, I'll sure make one out of it also.

Hope it shows up :)

Wow, was house sitting for my brother's family and came back to 4 full pages of entries! Very lovely blocks ladies!

I received F8s from:
Aully
AliKat110
Fabric_Fancy

And a wonderful block from Shaysmema, wonderful as always!

I know I've been slacking a little, but I am going to be starting on the blocks this week (have a round robin to finish before I start on this swap). But I have everything ready to start, it's a matter of cutting and stitching :)

So fingers crossed, hopefully by next week some of you will receive finished blocks from me.

Roseysue 10-23-2011 12:40 PM

I'm ready to show you blocks I have received recently.

Garnet1265 10-23-2011 01:47 PM

The poor little package probably got lost somewhere in the shuffle. I will send the yellow to you. There is definitely enough to make a block. Thanks for checking and I will mail it out tomorrow.
