    I made a block for an extra swap. Jonatha wanted autumn leaves, autumn colors, or harvest. I think I hit all of those with these fabrics. I have her permission to post a picture before she receives it. I will mail tomorrow.

    Has anyone found a good way to label the blocks we receive? The little sticky labels fall off. I'd like to keep track so I can share the finished quilt with all contributors. Maybe just in a digital portfolio?

    PokerDiva: Where did you get these beautiful fall fabrics???????? WOW!! I would love to get some of these!!!!! Thanks again!!!!
    Carole, the dottie fabric came in a fat quarter pack. Not sure where I got it as most of the fabric I use is from my stash. The red fabric is left over from a quilt I made and I think it came from a QS that is not longer here. I do have a little more left over if you would like me to send you some.
    Thank you so much for the generous offer. Keep your stash for now!! I might want to swap with you again and you can always use that material............YEA the possibilities!!

    Hi, Dotty. I take pix of all I make and receive, and tag the names on the photo. Label them as "to dotcomdtcom", or "from pokerdiva". In the PICTURES area of the computer, I have a folder labeled BOMs and in there are files for all the months I've been in the swap. Each month I add a new folder for that month.

    In each of those monthly files I make a TO and FROM folder, and that is where the pictures go. Really easy way to keep track of who sent what and what I sent (so I don't duplicate blocks for people I swap with a lot).
