Count me in. I had to see if I could get it all together before I committed to participate. I have six done and six more that in are in the planning stage. The fabric is a line of Mary Engelbrecht's, which I love. I will send pictures later.

RedGarnet222 04-24-2012 07:50 AM

Let me try post these pictures. Hopefully they come out okay. The ones that have aprons in them are 6.5" x 6.5". The others are 12.5" There are four different sayings for the one set.

My pictures were all the right way when I posted them. I guess the system turns them. Sorry.

RedGarnet222 04-25-2012 06:31 AM

How fun they are peggy! Love them.

PinkLotus 04-28-2012 03:54 PM

RedGarnet222 04-29-2012 08:45 AM

Thanks quiltermomma! :~)

abonda 04-29-2012 01:56 PM

Oh red I want one Iwant one !! Sew so cute!! love them. welcome lotus!

RedGarnet222 04-29-2012 05:24 PM

Thanks abonda! I do check the thread before I swap them out for people who have requested a certain block. So I will make sure you get one.

Have a great weekend, what is left of it anyway. Are those hollyhocks yours?? Wow they are so vivid. I used to have some double pink ones. But, they were a light pink with double petals.

Red

PinkLotus 04-29-2012 07:33 PM

I want one of yours too Red..pretty please :)

ljdugas31 04-30-2012 12:33 PM

I would love one of yours too Red.So cute!!!!

QuilterMomma 04-30-2012 12:50 PM

If I am getting the retro appliances, then i want one of yours to go with them. I am not picky. Excited to see what I get to make my kitchen wall hanging to fill the empty space on the wall so i don't have to wash it. LOL

RedGarnet222 05-01-2012 06:41 AM

Wow! I am so flattered! I will check the list and the first 6 get them. THanks so much girls.

QuilterMomma 05-01-2012 01:29 PM

Now we have to wait 30 more days to get our blocks. tapping tapping foot. Is this enough chatter for you red?

RedGarnet222 05-02-2012 06:35 AM

LOL... The deadline isn't until 2 weeks away quiltermomma! But, there aren't many swappers that signed up for this swap. As soon as they are all here I will swap them out. I guess there are so many swaps going on that it is hard for everyone to sign on for everything.

abonda 05-02-2012 06:46 AM

Thanks so much! I would love to recieve one of yours. YES! Those are the Hollyhocks I grew last year. I collect and save the seeds every year to replant. Would you like me to send you some? I have light pink doubles also. They are such an old flower but I think way to pretty to forget! My second passion is gardening. My first Quilting.

Your so sweet but my high winds where I live just blows them down. Love yours though! I also love gardening. I don't do as much as I used to though, it hurts my bones for days afterward.

Judith1005 05-02-2012 05:43 PM

Awww, such awesome blocks everyone. I'm sorry I missed out on this swap. Nice job!:)

RedGarnet222 05-04-2012 07:08 AM

Me too judith! How about joining the What a woman wants swap?

RedGarnet222 05-10-2012 07:31 AM

OK ladies there are just two swappers we are waiting on now. I am getting excited to swap them out for you and send them along.

QuilterMomma 05-10-2012 08:36 AM

Sounds great. I am sure they are doing such an awesome job on their blocks that they needed a couple of extra days to finish them up. Are they looking good? I made a couple of extras for mine and they are in the pile waiting for their compadraes (sp) to come join in.

Ms Grace 05-11-2012 08:41 AM

These blocks are just too cute!
Wish I would have seen this earlier.:(

RedGarnet222 05-11-2012 12:22 PM

Me too ms grace. I'm Sorry you missed it.

RedGarnet222 05-11-2012 04:52 PM

I pm'd the two swappers and one is sending tomorrow. The other swapper hasn't returned a reply yet?? I sure hope we can get everyone's here on time ... Oh My!

stitchengramie 05-13-2012 05:23 PM

I thinking I was to mail my blocks out on the 15th. I will send the by Priority Mail tomorrow. Would that be fine, or is it to late?

RedGarnet222 05-13-2012 07:40 PM

No that will be fine... I will wait on them. Thanks stitchengrannie!

abonda 05-22-2012 04:05 AM

when will we be getting our blocks? I'm dying waiting!

RedGarnet222 05-22-2012 05:14 PM

LOL... Funny you should ask. I waited for the last swapper to send and she bugged out for a good reason after the deadline.

I swapped them out today girls. I have to babysit tomorrow, so by the day after for sure I will mail them back out.

I am praying that everyone has a good mix of blocks. There were only nine of us. So, if you get one or so of yours back please don't be upset, ok girls? I was really sweating it this swap!

Red

abonda 05-23-2012 04:38 AM

Not to sweat anything Red!!! I for one will be excited with whatever I get!!! Thank you so much for doing this. I know sometimes things don't work out as we plan but I'm sure in the end what was ment to be will be!!! Thanks again.

ljdugas31 05-23-2012 12:00 PM

Red iwill love mine as well,no matter what i get because they were all so cute and good quality.Great job.

RedGarnet222 05-24-2012 06:51 AM

I am going to the main post office this morning girls... I am just as excited for you to have them as you are.

Enjoy them and let us know when they arrive ok?

RedGarnet222 05-24-2012 03:28 PM

PinkLotus 05-24-2012 05:58 PM

Thanks for the update Red :) I can't wait...

RedGarnet222 05-25-2012 07:04 AM

Your so welcome susan.

RedGarnet222 05-26-2012 08:31 AM

No one has gotten the blocks yet? I am thinking by today for sure. The ones with confirmation slips on them show they are out for delivery on the us po on line tracking site.

PinkLotus 05-26-2012 12:01 PM

I got my blocks today, but just now getting a chance to post... I love them all and they are beautiful!! Thank you everyone and a big 'ol thanks to Red for hosting.
