Hi all, my poor little mailbox was just bursting with squishies today. I told DH we might have to move out of this apartment and into a house so I can have a bigger mailbox!!
Squishies were from fryguymoore, janecat, moonrise, obsessed, pattis47, pokerdiva. moonrise and janecat does it matter which fabric goes to which swap (buddies or besties)? Beautiful fabric ladies!! |
It is nice to know the final destination of the block. That sounds like a wonderful group, I'm sure the children will love the quilt. I will send your block monday morning.
I went to the post office this morning and bought all the stamps to send out the completed blocks. SURPRISE, SURPRISE, When I got back home my letter carrier was about 3 hours early delivering my mail, even in our snow. I received an envelope from DonnaDrum with a beautiful floral print inside, then I opened an envelope from vivnme c/o fryguymoore that contained the most wonderful rose/mauve batik, next in line was the electric bill (skipped opening that one) and went right to the last fabric envelope from twospoiledhuskies that contained a beautiful blue with petite floral vine pattern. I want to finish these 4 blocks this weekend and mail monday morning. I am also in the Oriental Block Swap and have been working on those for a week now... It won't be long before I send Deb my package.....she is sew much fun to work with.

Obsessed - I can't believe you got so many at once! You had a fun mail day today! None for me today.... I guess I will work on my blocks for the Blocks from the Orient swap. Is anyone else doing that one? |
Just got a whole pile of squishies... Obsessed, I have the perfect fabric for you

I received 2 squishys today from DonnaDrum and Two spoiled Huskies. I love the floral from DonnaDrum and the blue from TwoSpoiledHuskies. I'm not sure what I'm going to do yet, but it'll be fun. :D
It's snowing like a mad thing right now, and I couldn't get the rest of my F8's out today. Hopefully Monday is better for me. :) |
