I LOVE this swap!
5 weeks? Gee! I reckon on average about 10 days from the US to Shropshire in the UK! I think the longest its taken sending was around 3 weeks, but that was slow!
I'm considering this. I had promised myself no more swaps too, but its tempting. Dont sign me up just yet though.
Come on!!! I've got to have one from your Midland, UK, and i'll send one from my Midland, TX, USA!!!

O.K. I tested the WOW with my pen and it did stay - I heat set then washed. BUT..... it looked a little distracting having a pattern behind the writing.

I will buy some plain white and perhaps a new pen as well.

UT OHHHH, just a thought; but everytime I do scrappies, it seems the scraps grow, lol. I never seem to get rid of them all. Funny little critters, huh?

I'm thoroughly convinced that if you store your scraps together, they multiply like little bunnies :lol: :lol:

Help!!!
I have tried this block 3 times.
It is coming out too small when I turn the printed squares back.
I'm getting a 3 1/4" block.

Is it just me?? What's wrong? :cry:

Are you sewing from corner to corner on the 2.5" squares?
