I told him we have until June so he'll have to be patient with me getting ours done too.

We are missing 4 f8:
grilscouts1
lovngrandma
mosher92
tracibug ( I saw you were mailing yours )

Does anyone have any updates on the other 3?

I'm missing the same ones Moonwork, hopefully they get them in the mail. I'll beg or something......Please Please ladies they should be in the mail by now, please mail them out. Thank you am looking forward to getting them.

I hope that is mine you are talking about. If you are talking about the block with the tiny border, its called a five patch star. It is made to be 10 inches, therefore I added the two borders.

I went back in the posts and see where Mosher92 posted she has hers ready to mail and will be doing so shortly. I know Tracibug also posted she has mailed hers now.

I don't see any messages from Mosher92 or Lovngrandma regarding their f8 so I did send an PM to them asking for a status up date so we'll know what's going on. Sure hope all is okay with them and theirs ... makes me wonder if they are having a difficult time and just need some understanding from us.

Jaydee... you'll get a giggle from this ...

Dad -- Got a lot of good blocks in ... best get yours going
Me -- Dad we've got until June 1 to get them done besides I don't see you doing any
Dad -- That's what I got you for
Me -- What if I kick off ...who is going to do the blocks then
Dad -- I'll just call that lady in Texas and have her come up and do them, cackle cackle cackle
Me -- Oh thanks, now I see how easy I can be replaced
Dad -- more cackle cackle cackle

Hello, I have mailed out about half of my f8's...(36 of them) but had to cut some more, and life caught up to me... Sorry about the delay.... I have even made some grownups, and sent back... this is my fourth boom, and I am very reliable. just havent made it to the post office....

Got two F8's from jaba on Sat, 3/2/13.

ok moonwork , post 711 and post on page before says i have sent out my F8ths , and 711 says the day, so it was Friday that they posted, gosh im glad i thought maybe i had been posting to the wrong boom, thank you for checking on me though, have had alot of sickness and 2 blizzards adn 21 inches of snow and a few days no power and no heart but getting better and power in and snow melting , so im on a roll have to finish a wall hanging and get it posted then will start on doing grownups and sending them out one and tow at a time, i will do them in the order i got them, i have matched lots of fabric to them already and that is half the battle and also patterns, trying to do a different one for each 8th, thanks

Yeah... thanks for the update. I mis-read it and thought it meant your mailbox was stuffed with incoming mail from others.

Heard Kansas got dumped on by the snow machine and glad to hear you guys are making it. We went around 18 days without power during our ice storm a few years ago and it's no picnic.

Thanks for the update too girlscouts1. Was worried since I know you have been in them with me before. Glad y'all are okie dokie too.

That means everyone's f8 should be in the mail in the next few days ... yeah that will be super!
