Is this your experience too?

Because I live so close to the border I typically get the package before they even update the shipping info. Last RR I was in the just sent it normal mail and I would get it in 3-5 days.

ROS, hopefully you should have it this week or next week then...

Everyone's center block should be in the mail now (if you are reading this on Saturday 08/06/2016).
When you receive the package from the person mailing to you, please post you got it, so we can get an idea of the mailing timeframe.

I mailed my block to Lv2sew2011 (Donna) on 8/1 and by the tracking it says it was delivered on 8/3. I did send it in a flat rate mailer as it was what I had and did not require me to go to the post office.;)

Thank you! I like the idea of turning it on point. Do what you think will look best. I am glad it got to you OK.

I mailed it on Aug 3. What day did you get it?
