How about everyone jot down on my envelope - 'solid black only'. I would appreciate it a bunch!

Thanks,

Jane

Yep, I jotted it down on the swap spreadsheet I printed out that April e-mailed at the beginning of the swap.

Marcialee, Towards the top of the page, under the HOME button is the Community button. Click on it, then click on Albums, then there is a link on the upper right hand side that says Create new Album. Its pretty slick!

Bluelady 07-21-2013 05:34 PM

Update: I have received F8s from: Chasezzz, dotcomdtcm, GagaSmith, ljdugas, marcialee, NCQuilter and wendiq.
Thanks!

frenchfryqueen 07-22-2013 04:02 AM

Blocks going home today to ljdugas and wendiq. I'm also updating my album *if* someone wanted to spoil the surprise. :)

Chasezzz 07-22-2013 04:53 AM

Ruck9085, did you get fabric from me? I sent it two weeks ago...so just want to make sure. Didn't see my name above. I remember addressing the envelope...have a friend near Memphis who also is a Rucker!

Chasezzz 07-22-2013 04:55 AM

Ruck9085 I see my name on an earlier list you posted. Thanks!

Hello all
Sorry I have been MIA I was in Ottawa for a work conference and boy was it amazing all around!
I also came home to find out the information on hubby is not good :( We go on Wednesday for him to get 12 shots in his spine. If that doesn't help they are going to go in and burn the nerve endings and if all else fails he is looking at a double fusion :(
I hope you are all doing well. I always love to see the chatter going on in the groups :)
Hugs
April

GagaSmith 07-22-2013 12:00 PM

Oh no, not good news :(

I hope all goes well on Wednesday! Praying for you and your hubby :)

Chasezzz 07-22-2013 03:10 PM

Loving Izabella...will be in my prayers. From the turn-around time you'd think Sterope was a fast group...have you noticed?

Bluelady 07-22-2013 04:06 PM

Got the motherlode today! Received F8s from atpegsquiltstudio, frenchfryqueen, cuppy, jclinganrey, AZTess1, ArizonaKat and kareno.

Bluelady 07-22-2013 04:06 PM

Loving Izabelle, sending prayers your way.

debfaye 07-23-2013 05:24 AM

Anyone interested in an extra swap?

I have 10 so far but would like several more. I am sending out an Asian butterfly fabric I bought while living in Japan.

Let me know,

wendiq 07-23-2013 06:20 AM

Got my fabric from frenchfryqueen yesterday. And I peaked at your "sent" blocks. Nice, I will look forward for my first treat.......:)

wendiq 07-23-2013 06:25 AM

April, you and your DH are sure being "tested". I pray the best will be in your lives.......So sorry for your problems, but your attitude is inspiring.......hope you can feel all the love and concern out here in blogland being sent your way....

Chasezzz 07-23-2013 08:23 AM

GagaSmith, got your squishy today! Post office mangled the envelope but the fabric is fine! AZTESS1 and frenchfryqueen, your blocks went into the mail today.

AZTESS1 07-23-2013 10:33 AM

I have received a block from frenchfryqueen yesterday and I will be working on more blocks tonight!

frenchfryqueen 07-23-2013 11:42 AM

Well.. I told myself I wasn't going to peek, Chasezzz.. that lasted about 2 seconds! I LOVE my block and can't wait to get my hands on it. Thanks so much!

AzTess.. I haven't sent you your block yet.. did you mean you got my squishie? Don't want to take credit for a block that I didn't sew. Unless it's really really pretty, then by all means, it's mine! :D

Chasezzz 07-23-2013 12:00 PM

Glad you like it frenchfryqueen...I was pretty happy with it! I am having fun with these blocks!

Chasezzz 07-23-2013 12:05 PM

In the mail late this afternoon...blocks finished for ncquilter and dotcomdtcm.

jclinganrey 07-23-2013 02:48 PM

I received F8s from:

frenchfryqueen
GaGaSmith
NCquilter

Lots of fun fabrics.

Jane

Chasezzz 07-24-2013 08:41 AM

Hi jclinganrey...your block is going in the mail today.

wendiq 07-25-2013 05:32 AM

I really messed up somewhere and need some HELP PLEASE. I opened an album to add my sent blocks. then I attached a finished block. But instead of just adding the postscript of the album, the whole block posted AND I HAVE NO IDEA WHERE????? How do I get this done like the rest of you ladies???? Thanks from the very non-techie swapper....

Bluelady 07-25-2013 09:35 AM

wendiq, the block pic posted to the album. You can reach your album via the Community link above. Now.. were you also trying to add the album link to your "signature", to the bottom of the messages here? if so, that involves a few more steps. You have to add the link, the url, to your signature line in your profile.

Bluelady 07-25-2013 09:41 AM

wendiq, to edit your signature and add the link to the pictures to ALL your messages (it will show on every message, not just in this group), you need to copy the url to your album (here is YOUR album url) http://www.quiltingboard.com/members...bums18524.html

Then go to SETTINGS at the top of this page, then on left hand side of that page, see MySettings and below that, Edit Signature. Then in the edit signature box, type what you want it to say, like, "Boomerang blocks sent" or "see my stuff" or whatever you would like.. :) then paste the link I just gave you. Be sure to save it!
The.. voila! you have a signature. With a link to the album.

Oh my, I am sorry! I have been preoccupied with other things and did not read the
instructions. And, I must say I am sorry that I am just mailing out my fabric.
My father died last week and I had other bad news from my mother in law.

I am so behind. Please forgive me. K.

These are the people who have sent me their fabric.

AZTESS1
bluelady
Chasezzz
dotcomdtcm
frenchfryqueen
GaGaSmith
jclinganrey
lestrong601
ljdugas
marcialee
NCQuilter
wendig

P.S. Ladies, I am totally green about this, but have no fear, the owner of my local quilt
shop said she would help me pick out one or two blocks in my abilty level. I do hope
to start very soon, as soon as the dust finally settles. K.

Lestrong601 07-25-2013 12:54 PM

Got squishy from frenchfryqueen. Almost there to be able to work on blocks and round robins.

Lestrong601 07-25-2013 12:57 PM

Kidlit you are fine. We all get behind at times. You will have plenty of time to do what you need to do. Please don't let this stress you out. Will keep you in my daily prayers and looking forward to working with you.

kidlit 07-25-2013 01:10 PM

April:

I am praying for you and your family.
I am sorry I didn't see the post until today. K.

kidlit 07-25-2013 01:12 PM

lestrong601:

Thank you. I'm glad I am doing this. K.

wendiq 07-26-2013 05:52 AM

Thank you sooooooo much, bluelady. I've printed your instructions and will do this a bit later......(need my coffee first....HeeHee!)

I received my block from Frenchfryqueen yesterday. I will try hard to attach this soon......I like it Ffq......off to a good start! :)

wendiq 07-26-2013 06:05 AM

bluelady......it isn't working....:( What did I do wrong?

Bluelady 07-26-2013 08:04 AM

We will get 'er going wendiq! Check your email... :)

GagaSmith 07-26-2013 11:19 AM

Rec'd finished block from dotcom. Thank you so much--I love it. Unfortunately I can't post picture. If anyone who makes me a block would like to show photo before you send it to me, feel free because I won't be able to post when I receive it.

Bluelady 07-26-2013 04:52 PM

Well, it is the end to another warm week! I have my work cut out for the weekend.. fun work that is! I guess it really isn't work.. except for that cleaning house part... I may not get that done..
But I will get some more blocks made! Hooray!
Now, just to give an update and make sure I am on track here, I wil let ya'll know I have NOT received F8s from: Jaydee, Kidlit, lestrong601, ruck9085, SharonB or TJ Beaver. If you havent mailed out your F8, then all is well. :)
If have only recently mailed it out, then I am sure it will arrive next week.
However, if you mailed it out over two weeks ago..... Houston, we have a problem!
Please let me know if I should have received it by now.
Thanks.

kidlit 07-26-2013 05:00 PM

Ladies:

I sent my squishies today. Please let me know when you get them. The mail lady weighed only
one and said it was right on the border of needing more stamps. I asked her to weigh them all, but
she was getting off and said it would be alright. I told her it was fabric and she assured me it would be
okay. I hope she's right. Anyway, they are on their way and I am off to the quilt shop tomorrow with
the fabric I have received to see what I can find. I don't have the stash you all talk about. Maybe one day.
Thanks,
Kidlit
