/QUOTE] Those post cards go to QuiltingMommy's Girls. Not to me.

Our walmart has the selection but their material is "scattered" and difficult to price at a glance. I actually spoke to the girl that works the section and last week when I went there it was a little better.

The thing that really irritates me is they took the "sale" aisle out and shoved the sale material in with the rest and it takes too long to go through everything. I go to walmart for a deal. If I wanted to buy $6.00 material, I'd go to JoaAnns.

I really like the block I got from AliKat110. it is the neatest! Phannie

WELL quilting mommy where do i send the cards?

Blocks I have received recently. urgodschild2, missgigglewings, abbysmom, AZ Kat, quiltingmommy, and a block from attleboro, ma (I am too lazy to go upstairs to look up your board name) Thank you ladies, all the blocks are wonderful. And also a block from goldendog55. I love them all.

I am showing that I mailed a block out to you on 4/8. It had two 4-patches in your F8 and yellow, and then the other 2 blocks were fussy-cut medallions on brown.

---------------
Just browing through - - from the Atlantic Boom - - - Quiltingmommy, I would love to know the name of that block. It's wonderful!

received block from phannie today....love, love it. thank you

I have four new blocks finished: Country1, Missgigglewings, Jaydee3 and Goldendog.

My online picture album is updated; take a peak if you like!

you are absolutely right and one of the more interesting blocks also. I had it marked as rec'd, don't know where my brain was.

No problem! I "saved" yours for last because I could NOT come up with an idea for it for the longest time.

Sent out grown-up to Mosher92. My last block to fly home. If you have NOT rec'd a block from me at this time PLEASE PM me.
Thanks to everyone for swapping. I have rec'd some of the most beautiful blocks. I know they are going to make a beautiful "Crafty/sewing/quilting" themed quilt!
Penny aka Country1

I couldn't remember if I had or hadn't sent a thank to Goldendog55 for the beautiful block I rec'd last week. I have been sick with respiratory infection and asthmatic bronchitis for the last 3 weeks. So my mind is just now functioning again.
Judy, the block is beautiful and I LOVE it!...
Thanks, Country1

Just mailed my last 3 block out today..If you have not received a finished block from me...Please let me know
I love all of the blocks I have received so far and just want to thank all of you for sharing your wonderful talent with me!!!

Hey,

sorry all who I have the side swap going on (listed below) - I haven't been able to mail the blocks yet. We have had two deaths in the family recently, and the life has been upside down more than enough..... The sad season ends this weekend when the second funeral service takes place.

Nina

Thanks again everyone for swapping!

Rec'd a great block from okdarla today. Hopefully I will have my current project finished next week and can put these blocks on the wall. not sure how I will finish them, but I will come up with something

Ninakk, sorry to hear about your losses. It is hard enough for one. I was just thinking about you before I saw your post. Take your time, we understand

[h=5]Well, it's been several hours now since I saved my husband's life. Yes really! We were at TGIF for lunch and he got choked on a piece of steak. He coughed and no sound came out and he acted like he was gagging. I asked him if he was "ok" and he shook his head no. I hit him once between the shoulder blades and he made a little air gasp. I had to actually do the Heimlich on him to get the meat dislodged. It came up and he gasped a deep breath.

The only others people that seemed to notice were a group of teenagers with one mom and I think they freaked out a little. They were finished eating and ready to leave anyway but no one asked what was going on.

I was calm and clear while it was happening but once it was over I noticed my hands shaking and felt slightly dizzy.

If you don't know how to do the Heimlich or think you'll never need it, think again. Things happen in a blink of an eye and your life could be changed forever.

I am extremely thankful I knew what to do and could do it calmly when needed...I hope I never have to do it again but am so thankful my husband is still with me tonight.[/h]

Moonwork! Thank goodness for your quick action!!!!

Moomwork, Glad you had the wits about you to do what was needed. CPR is another tool we all need to know about. We never know when it can save a life. Thanks for sharing your story and I am so glad it has a happy ending. Phannie

Moon, Thank God you knew what to do! I bet hes even more thankful than any one! Good job!

Traveling grandma Thanks you for posting that. I do have it. Yeah. I have updated my list.

Moon.....Thank goodness. I am not surprised that other's did nothing or even noticed. It seems people do not want to get involved now a days.

OMG...Thank the Lord you knew what to do. I have only practiced this once and hope I am as capable as you were if I ever have to do it for real.

Mosher92, your grown-up block will be making it's way home tomorrow. Phannie

Thanks y'all. I'll tell you, later last night it was more scary than when it happened as all the "what if"s" kept coming to mind.

Final 4 blocks are going home tomorrow 05/06.

Dad is anxiously waiting for the mail everyday so he can do some more re-arranging.

Thanks to all and I hope you like your blocks.

The last four have been updated on my link below if you want to peek at them.

Moonwork, my block is absolutely fantastic...tell Dad that the lady from Texas could not replace your wonderful blocks....no way, no how. By the way, loved the Paducah show. We managed to make it to everything on the list, including the Libby Lehman-Alex Anderson show. I feel so honored to have seen her before she fell ill, although it looks a little more promising for her recovery. Sorry, not to have been able to look you up, but my crew had us on the run from daylight til dark.
