I think when all is said and done, the gals need to do a tutorial as to how to handle a swap as big as this one got. Phew.

While a wonderful fun thing this was for those that made the blocks, I cannot even begin to imagine what it will involve for these poor gals doing the sorting to move all the partially done piles to Jan's house to continue after they have spent a long day sorting. If I could wiggle my nose and make dinner and refreshments appear for you all, it would be done. I hope you are having fun in the process.

I make a promise:
I do solemnly swear that if we do a block swap again of this magnitude and it is within 400 miles of my house I will make the drive to help.

Oh my.. I knew it was going to be a long day.. I can't imagine how you managed to move everything when you had to leave and go to Jan's.. I hope no one dropped theirs and no wind blew...

It's now 9 pm Missouri time, so I'm hoping you're all done and having a glass of wine.. Hope it's not an expresso so you can get pumped up to finish!!

Thank you for your hard work today.. we all wish we could have helped, I'd have been there if I could have. Perhaps next time the big exchange will be closer and I'll go for sure..

We're all waiting to hear from you and know you've survived the Block Exchange Day.. B-E-D... humm... You'll be ready for bed tonight I'm sure!! Hope you took some pictures!
