frizzymama13 07-12-2013 06:14 PM

Woohoo! Thanks so much Sandra!

Auntevie 07-12-2013 07:48 PM

Ditto frizzymama13! :)

Annaquilts 07-12-2013 08:30 PM

Great news! It will be lots of fun to get them in the mail. Thank you for doing this swap.

catpawski 07-13-2013 02:41 AM

Now the waiting begins........but not for long...............Thanks Sandra..........your the very best

owlvamp 07-13-2013 09:49 AM

You are all welcome and thank you to those who sent in extra blocks and a little something me. The square and the birdie key chain is really nice. I hung the birdie key chain on my rack where my fabric/ rulers are. Thanks for the sticky notes too. I use a lot of them. The quilt stickers are very pretty. I really like those too. Thanks ladies you all are wonderful.

owlvamp 07-14-2013 09:52 PM

Okay they are all swapped and packaged ,in the mail they will go tomorrow. Let me know (can post here) when you receive them. Thanks all.

quiltingdragon 07-15-2013 07:08 PM

Finally got Mom's camera back, so here's a sample of some squares/twist packs that you might get in the mail :) These are what I sent in. 6 twists, swimmers, laundry on the line, earth/recycle/lightbulbs, constellations, technology/ipods/cellphones, etc, and funny Amy Bradley birds.

Looks like fun packs quiltingdragon. Thanks for wetting our appetites.

frizzymama13 07-16-2013 03:25 AM

Oh my, those are great!

Stitch124 07-16-2013 05:29 AM

I'm looking forward to receiving another fantastic I-spy charm pack from my friends on the board! Thanks Owlvamp for putting this together and doing such a great job!

SheriR 07-16-2013 05:47 AM

I spy.....someone's toes!!! :D and awesome blocks too. :D I'm not home to get mine but hubby will keep them safe. Maybe he'll make me a quilt while I'm gone. Hahaha!!!

owlvamp 07-16-2013 03:05 PM

They are all on there way to you. Mailed out Monday. Have fun with them.

fmhall2 07-17-2013 08:30 AM

It looks like you haven't received mine yet. Is that true.? I sent you the tracking number, have you done anything with it yet, or should I? fmhall2

charlotte37830 07-17-2013 02:10 PM

Received mine today. Thanks. I loved them. Will the swap in September be the same? Will it be a certain theme or just sets of (20) 5" squares? I am starting on September's now. Thanks again.

owlvamp 07-17-2013 05:46 PM

It will be 5 inch squares and I want more kids fabrics. I don't think we need any more flowers, or lines or things like that. What do you think about that idea?Plus will do the twist again but the fabric you use in the original sets I don't want in the twist. I hope I made sense. I would like to see bugs, more food, different animals.

charlotte37830 07-17-2013 05:53 PM

Sounds great. I will keep that in mind while I'm shopping. Thanks again.

Auntevie 07-17-2013 05:59 PM

Owlvamp...totally agree! Makes perfect sense. Thank you everyone! Can't wait to have enough to make a quilt. It will be fun to see pics of quilts we make with these

Susan Sendt 07-17-2013 08:38 PM

I got mine today and I was so excited to see what the other ladies had chosen. I totally agree with Owlvamp about her suggestions for next time! I have bought some REALLY CUTE kid novelty fabrics. Can we swap some licensed fabric patterns like Hello Kitty, Superman, Peanuts, etc? Those are not the designs I have bought, I am just curious. I am remodeling my sewing room this weekend and can't wait to start cutting my September swaps! I hope some of you will post pictures of your completed I Spy quilts when they are completed! THANKS SO MUCH for letting me join this group! See you in September!!!!

Susan Sendt 07-17-2013 08:39 PM

And a HUGE THANK YOU to Owlvamp for all of her hard work in doing this swap!!!!

frizzymama13 07-17-2013 09:02 PM

Got my squares this evening as well! Some really fun squares! Looking forward to the next swap. Thanks again for putting this all together!

owlvamp 07-17-2013 09:11 PM

Yes Susan Sendt all those fabric are welcome. Even Mickey Mouse (hint hint) my favorite.

Susan Sendt 07-18-2013 12:14 AM

YEA!!!!!!! I got the hint. For some reason I thought those were not allowed! I am IN for the next swap!!!! Do we really have to wait till September????

frizzymama13 07-18-2013 03:51 AM

I'll throw in my 2 cents...I'd love to see more food, people, and unique objects. My kids enjoy mr potato head, clifford, winnie the pooh, curious george as well! ;-) I've already have my sets ready to go, just need to find twist material.

owlvamp 07-18-2013 04:35 AM

No I can go send the moderator a request to start one. It will end in September for I and husband will be having surgery the like August 7th. I really want to make him a lap quilt for the hospital and my myself if I just can get the time. There's so much on my plate already don't know if it will even get started.

quiltingdragon 07-18-2013 04:41 AM

I got mine yesterday, and would definitely be in for another round!

Stitch124 07-18-2013 05:04 AM

Hi Sandra -- I received my squares yesterday...oh they are so cute! Gotta get busy....so many quilts to make! Thanks again for putting this swap together. Have you thought about the 5" batik swap?

I would be in for another square swap if it is kid's fabrics.

Susan Sendt 07-18-2013 06:12 AM

Owlvamp, I am sorry to hear about the upcoming surgeries in August. That IS a pretty good excuse not to have a swap that month, LOL! I hope and pray all goes well.

CyndyK 07-18-2013 07:51 AM

I reveived my package yesterday! Thanks, everybody for swapping and to Sandra for coordinating it all!

Cyndy K

fmhall2 07-18-2013 08:40 AM

Sandra, I received mine yesterday. Thank you loads. You do a great swap, and I do enjoy it. Thanks again. MargieLou

kele 07-18-2013 01:42 PM

Received my squares! Thanks owlvamp and all who swapped!

owlvamp 07-18-2013 02:19 PM

Stitch124 yes I have thought about the batiks 5 inch swap and yes I would be willing to host it. I just don't have any batiks yet. My little stash lacks from solids, blenders, batiks. I need to get some but need to wait for some funds. I do need to go get a couple things for a quilt so I will look at the batiks and see how I would do the swap. Any ideas of how many baggies you all would want to swap? Would we do it just like the I spy swap and 6 sets with 20 in each Baggie? Give me some ideas and can draw up the rules for it and see what I can come up with.

Recieved my squares today........and I just have to say something.............I received 12 blocks out of my 6 sets that I would not consider I spy squares.......charm squares yes but not I spy squares..........I would not even know what to say to a child as to what I want them to find.........Ok so I am being the bad guy here..........but I just think it needs to be said..........otherwise........I got lots of perfect squares.

Can't wait till the next swap...........

Sorry..........it must be the heat.........and the lack of thyroid hormones but I just thought it must be said.................normally I would let it slide......but this time I got 12 instead of 3or 4............

Sandra........thanks for all you do............and good luck with the surgery........I know how much surgery can take out on you..................

Just a thought here............is it possible to include in the the next swap that if the blocks sent are not considered I spy squares they will be returned to the sender and not exchanged.
