    lucky is right! I'm going to be out of town next week (going with just hubby to a marriage retreat, which will be spectacular, but...) I will also be wondering if my fabrics came in!!! again, I'm not obsessed at all. nope, not one bit.

    thanks for the hard work Carsey!

    Once Carsey said she began mailing out the fat quarters, I wasn't banking on getting mine any time soon so it was such a surprise. I think my DH thought I was nuts when he brought the package in and I looked at the return address and yelled...."YES!!!!" LOL All are really super nice.....even the so called U.S. stuff that most of us can obtain or find.....hard to decide which is a favorite. That Seattle one looks so great and fun, the one with all the Lighthouses and that fabric from Nova Scotia, all the flowers on the one from Australia....oh I can't choose which is the prettiest. I am thinking how nice some would have made a needle book or needle case....but on second thought...whether the fat quarter colors match or not.....I should just sew them all together as a memory quilt of the International Fabric Swap of 2012. That would be the best....to have such a fond memory.

    Leiladylei,

    That's almost what I'm thinking too....or at least a Big Block-tye quilt so I can showcase all the great fabrics I know I'll receive. I also want to incorporate the labels somehow on each different fabric. Guess I'll just have to wait and see.....although waiting is getting harder by the day.
