It'll be at least Monday before I can start on them (DH is off this weekend and I can't seem to get any sewing done while he's here! LOL!), but I can't wait to dig in! :thumbup:

I'd like some feedback from all of you....

Boomerang 3.0 was my first Boomerang swap, and I thought the same thing ... that I really needed to package the fabric extra super duper well. So I bought some heavy duty gallon freezer bags, cut off the zippers, and taped the poor little F8's with 2" packing tape within an inch of their life. :lol: They all made it just fine, but after seeing everyone else's and the great condition in which they arrived, I saw that all the tape and heavy plastic weren't really necessary.

So this time I just used cheap zipperless baggies (cut in half) and went easy on the tape. :mrgreen:

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!!

Oops, I just saw this!

No, it doesn't matter to me which swap each fabric goes with. I've got 3 groups of F8's that I sent out randomly to both the Besties and the Buddies. :)

(I keep wanting to type Beasties - LOL! :lol: )

How is this related to this swap, you ask? Well......because he did this I got nothing done :)

He is adorable and I love what he made-tell him he did a FABULOUS job!!! (and it's okay to not get something done when we spend time with the wee ones lol)
