    I am not sure why your's haven't made it yet........a thought just occured to me.....did you have the black $4.90 paid stamp instead of the stamp with the bridge on it or regular stamps? There was one 'metered' stamp, and it was dated 11/19 on it. I will check on that if you did, as sometimes the clerks are snotty about dated stamps.

    Boy, the blocks look so beautiful when you lay them out. Even more so than when I had them all together! I did go to the PO today to check on the 'metered' stamp. She said that she just knew that all of my envelopes were correct so she just sent it right on through. She is not one of the 'snotty' ones. She did say that NC is the slowest state to get packages. Something about how they are routed.
    I am glad that you got them Mish!

    Deb,
    Since everyone had such a good time doing this, are we going to do another swap....either something to go with these stars or even a completely different topic....what does the rest of group think? More important, Deb, do you want to host another swap?????

    I just knew it would be spectacular. I can't wait to see the finished quilt. Don't forget to post pics for us.

I LOVE LOVE all my blocks and want to thank everybody. I have never done a swap and it was a lot of fun. Thank you Deb for being so gracious and hosting this for us.

    I have thought of another swap. I have contacted Patrice and do have permission to offer and host another one. I will be posting it in January to allow us to enjoy the Blessed season coming upon us. I promise it will be much easier to do than this one was, so we should have many more participants. And Patti, mum is the word......

    Here is the first part of my lay out, I need to make the corner blocks and then the outer row to form the points there.
