I double checked the links, and they work for me. Is anyone else having issues with them?

Sharon, scroll down and click on the "heart pattern." (I played around and tried to find where it may be taking you.)

I received the cutest cardinal block (appliqued and embroidered) today from daisyboo9; THANK YOU, I LOVE IT! i won't post a picture because you already did for me...thank you for that too!
your block went into the post office today, so hopefully next week it will arrive, i hope you are happy with yours, like i am happy with mine! i didn't realize it, or plan it that way but noticed, the (color scheme) i chose for this seems to fit in with the fabrics i sent out for the boomerang swap, so everything so far is coordinating beautifully!
thank you everyone for your continuing participation in these fun exchanges :)

Ok, I have been thinking of switching my theme as I have enough to make a lap quilt with my bird blocks. Would anyone have issues if I asked for FOUR 4.5 blocks, your choice, from:

http://sentimentalstitches.net/free-...midget-blocks/

Four blocks do not equal one 12.5 block, but it may be more work as they are four little blocks. Otherwise, I will stick with my current theme.

If I switched, I would ask for scrappy, so no one would would have to buy fabric unless they wanted to. (I really would love to ask for 30's fabric, but don't want to press my luck.) I do NOT want to take advantage of you lovely women!

I wanted to change my theme after seeing all the lovely blocks that are coming in for the lottery! Im so jealous!!

Don't you feel lost when things need to be fixed? I am "sew" glad you are getting back to normal! I am also delighted that you liked the block I sent you...I really had fun doing that one. I liked it so much that I plan to make more and do a wall hanging. I will let you know when your block arrives.

I have no problem with that at all, BRT (do you like BRT, or your real name, or..? Blueribbontoes is just so long to type!) I think it might take a little longer for you to receive your swap blocks, since there would be more to make. But that quilt would be adorable in scraps! And you'd probably have to post which blocks had been done so we'd know which ones were still available to make, since they're all different.

I don't have a problem with that -- BUT, you gotta tell me which blocks are EASY and not paper pieced!! :lol: :lol:

Moosegirl, I don't have the perfect fabrics for you in my stash, so (yay!) I get to go to my LQS tomorrow and find them!

I'm so excited to get squishy mail!

Not to worry, don't rush, enjoy!
