I finished two more blocks: marytoddliz & bibliostone

I added a picture to my Boom 8 album: http://www.quiltingboard.com/members...bums17544.html

We have the quietest group. How's everyone doing on their blocks?

I completed two this morning, and updated my Boom 8 album.

I made "Broken Wheels" for Mosher92 & Annaquilts (an extra swap).

I haven't received any fabric from areinn, Lv2sew2011 and saraaev. Let me know if they have been sent.

THanks,

Christina

For some reason my message was garbled! Weird things going on today! Must be the weather, LOL I blame everything on the weather.

I sent out some blocks last week and did not get pictures. So if you get a block form me in the next few days can you post a picture please? Thanks

OH, Quilter Mommy I just peeked, it is so cute! I can't wait to get it! I am working on your block today, I got some fabric yesterday on our big city run! I hope you like it! will post picture when I get it finished. I will post it in my album so you can be surprised if you want!

Happy Sewing:)

I received first block from Biblostone and second from Dorothy. I love them. I still need a couple more F8, and you are aware, really looking forward to seeing your fabrics. Going to do a couple of blocks next week.

After lunch, I put my baby down for a nap and decided to finish one more that I new would be quick. I made a "Maple Leaf" for oldcatlady (Extra swap). Her fabric was brow with leaves, fish and deer. I saw the leaves and knew that I had to make a "Maple Leaf", hopefully not everyone will be making leaves :) Picture is updated in the album.

And Marytoddliz, I am glad you like your school block. I had a lot of fun, and frustration, making that one. It was partly paper-pieced and I have only tried paper-piecing a few times. I am thinking of making a second for my little sister who is a school teacher. I thought I could quilt up a little block to make a little wall hanging for her classroom.

OK I have sent out all grownup blocks to everyone who sent me there f8 YIPPIE!!!!!
I have recieved blocks from:
Dahna42-LOVE IT!!
Dotcomdcm-LOVE IT!!!
Marytoddliz-LOVE IT!!!
THANK YOU ALL SO MUCH!!!

I received 2 lovely blocks. One is from ljdugas31, and the other is from dahna42. So, now I have received blocks from:
dahna42

marytoddliz

They are all very nice. Thank you.

I need the person who sent out the purple fabric with the bright green and blue stems and leaves to PM me, please. There is no name on the note and I seem to have lost the envelope that it belongs to . Thanks!

sending home blocks to Goldendog55 and Cuppy, only one more to finish then I will just be waiting for the new ones to come in! This is sure a fast Boom!

thank you all so much for all your hard work, I just love it!

I made two more today for extra swaps: Nexxus & SheriR. The photos are added to the album in my profile.

I also received my finished blocks from ljdugas31 today. THanks, they are perfect.

I am almost caught up in grownup blocks. I only have one more to make right now, a second as an extra swap for ljdugas31 and then that's it. I need some more fabric F8s to work with....any new updates from saraaev, areinn, and lv2sew2011?

I have 3 more blocks done. ljdugas31, quiltingmommy, and bibliostone peek if you can't wait.

sending home blocks to Bibliostone, and Cuppy . and just waiting for the three that have not sent out their F8'

I love the block I got from Ssnare, it is so darn cute! It is an awesome school house. Hoping it will show up here, having trouble with pictures lately.[ATTACH=CONFIG]361915[/ATTACH]

oops, forgot to say I have sent out all blocks for all F8's received. Please let me know if you don't get it.

Thanks so much, Marybeth

Hi all! I just returned from our fascinating and fun trip to Wash DC, Virginia, and Outer Banks, North Carolina! It was quite hot and humid and we had "pouring rain" and thunder/lightning! Rain in San Diego is nothing compared to the East/South that's for sure!! Surprisingly though, it's hot and more humid here than usual-darn!! Thought we left that weather on the east coast!

I received two fantastic patriotic blocks from Dotty (dotcomdtcm) and Linda (ljdugas31). Thank you both and thanks for returning the scraps which I am sure I will be using when putting my quilts together!! pictures later!

I received squishies from Carolyn R and Lori-ann Mosher! Wish I could start the search for matching fabrics! Unfortunately I can't since my youngest granddaughter is napping in my sewing room. (My daughter, SIL, and 3 grandbabies (5, 2, 1) have moved in with us for about a month, waiting on a condo they are hoping to buy. Things will be a bit chaotic around our otherwise quiet big house and I doubt I'll be getting much sewing done while they are here. They are surely quite a busy family! It's great having them here, don't get me wrong---just exhausting!!!!

Mailed out two finished blocks today.....bibliostone and jahaper hope you like them.
Still waiting on F8's from areinn, lv2sew2011 and saraaev......is anyone else missing F8's from them? I hope the mailman didn't lose them.

3. I have received F8 from everyine except Lisa, Donna B,


Keep sewing ! Sara (saraaev)

No squishes for me today, I sent PM's to missing F8, just to keep track, got respons from both, and Sara posted here, so it looks like I will be getting some more squishies!

I am working in my yard today pulling weeds, I came in to get some ice water... I love working outside, I guess I had forgotten how good it feels to pull up those pesky weeds. We really decorate a lot in the fall so I like to have my yard ready for the holidays. We have a little Gnome village and the kids in the neighborhood love to see the Gnomes "decorate" for Halloween and Thanksgiving and Christmas. I have so much fun doing it!

Still waiting on F8's from areinn, lv2sew2011 and saraaev.

Are you sure it wasn't your boomerang7-water block from masimmons? I just got mine from her the other day.

Sending out finished blocks for cuppy, yayaquilts and ok darla tomorrow.
Dahna

Hi Ladies. I am sorry I have been MIA lately. I have been working a lot of overtime and haven't done much other than work and sleep. Tonight is my last overtime shift and then I will be back to a normal schedule. I will actually have 5 nights off in a row starting Wednesday night, haven't had that in many, many months. I will get all my f8s sent out by the end of the week. And I have already told my husband that this weekend is my sewing time!!! :)

Ok I mailed 20+ F8's today, also I still need to cut more fabric for the rest of them. So if you don't get my F8 don't worry about it, just means I haven't mailed it yet and having to cut more fabric, I hope to have the rest mailed by the end of the week. Just wanted to let everyone know that there is a special person on this board that has no ideal how I appreciate what they did for me. And just wanted to say thank you!!! and you know who you are! Also if you have to pay postage please let me know the man at the PO didn't want to take the time and weigh each one, he picked out 3 they all weigh the same and he let them go for the postage that was on the envelope even after I told him that this was fabric and some may have a bit more in it than others....Donna

I got my F8 Sara, yesterday, did you block today and mailing it out tomorrow
Dahna

I got most of my blocks mailed out yesterday. I ran out larger envelopes. For those who I made two blocks, I couldn't fit two into my smaller envelopes, so you two will get your blocks a little later after I get more larger envelopes. Otherwise all from our group who I have posted pictures for of finished blocks should get your finished grownup blocks soon.
