I love the block you made! Thank you so much. I've mailed two blocks to you, that you should hopefully get today or tomorrow. I forgot to take a picture of them. I broke my back last month and this is the first that I have sewn since then. It has been great therapy, even though it was a little harder physically than I was thinking. My labor of love to my new friend. Enjoy :)

Difergie 04-28-2016 11:13 AM

My goodness! Breaking a back is not a little problem! Hope all finds you well and look forward to my new blocks.

I received my block from Missgigglewings and it is PERFECTO!!!
Hers will go out on Saturday. So many outdoor projects calling my name I have gotten a little behind!

I have received a block from lovngrandma, will wait till #2 is here and will post photo then. I sent her blocks to her a while back but have not heard from her.
I am taking May off but will be following along if that is okay.

Sent my block out to my partner Coconuts today. I hope she enjoys it and it goes with her quilt. :)

It is not paper pieced the way I do it, but I just used graph paper to draw it. For a long time I could not figure out how to do it, then one day it was just hit me and is much simpler than it looks.

Hey, hey, hey there Jacquie! I rec'd your block May 5! I mailed yours on 4-18. Looks like it takes 3 wks for both of us. Was beginning to worry about it. Come to think about it, when I went to PO I thought I had to fill out an International Form, told the clerk (if some reason) it was going to Canada (opps). I had to fill out that form when I sent boxes over at Christmas to China when my DD & family lived for 4 yrs. Postage was outrageous! Praise God they are back in the great state of Texas!! They are 45 min away... My avatar of me & my 7 DGKs. Anyway so glad you rec'd. I'm so glad u posted pics.
Oh, BTW, my DD & SIL are going to Scotland in July (I'm babysitting, tho they are far from babies).... I'm seeing her this weekend & will show her block & postcard...
Thanks for being my partner. Really like this swap. Very interesting to see where everyone is from..
God Bless you & yours....
