I am still missing a F8 from materialgirl, and wendsy I see where you posted you sent yours to me in with my grown up block so I will let you know when it arrives.
I received grown up blocks from buddy'smom, Okdarla, and Obsessed. Thank you so much ladies for the time and talent that have went in to everyone of the blocks that I have received. These latest ones look awesome hanging on the wall.
I am sorry that I am running behind and am nowhere near finished with my blocks, I am sure that I will have them done (16 left to grow up) by the dead line. I really hope that this doesn't cause anyone any inconvinence.

Deep Deep breaths...no need to apologize or worry about inconveniencing anyone. This swap has a four month time frame and blocks are due to be mailed home by April 15th so you have plenty of time. If anyone is upset they have not received their block yet then perhaps this is not the swap for them. This swap is not meant to be rushed and get it done. it is meant to help people grow and stretch in their comfort zones and be STRESS FREE because you do have time!
So again take a deep breath and relax-you are fine :-)
Hugs
April

So much fun to see the blocks I worked on finding their way home! I can't wait to get the one that you sent Ksea! There's been a lull in the squishy mail around here... I imagine there will be a flurry of squishies finding their way home in the next month. Plenty of time is left!

Ditto to what Lovingizabell said!

Relax ksea...all is well!

I have quite a few blocks to complete myself and my time is definitely limited. Thanks for being patient ladies! This has been a great first time boomerang swap experience and I'm having a great time as well as learning more ways to do and not do not only blocks but organizing and keeping track of things! Have a good day!
I'll be posting more pictures as soon as my camera decides to come out of hiding! LOL

It is just that I might not make the April cut off.
If you are not able to wait and want your fabric back, please send me a PM and I will return it to you. If you don't mind waiting, I promise I will try to get the block out to you as soon as possible.

Thank you, I've really had fun making these for everyone :-D

I wish your guild would rethink that...there is NO mail going over there right now..even if you have a personal contact to send them to!

With them evacuating most areas, what could would a quilt do?

Save the thought till later...when they have a more structured life again...instead make a raffle quilt and send the money for food!

Just checking my records: I haven't received F8s from DonnaDrum, shaysmema, or Wendsy.

The blocks I HAVE received: pattis47, PokerDiva, quiltlin, bookworm, buddy'smom, carsey, Chigger Holler Quilter, Donna Drum, fryguymoore, janecat, Maine Ladybug, Materialgirl, moonrise, and Obsessed.

Would you please let me know if this is incorrect? Thanks so much! I am not in a hurry!
