    Yes I do! Do you see your blocks miss Libster? Worked out perfect for me. Then had a "BIG" brain buzz today....you have to understand my 2 boys , wives, grandchildren and great grandchildren are coming this year again...but everyone is coming for 9-10 days. OMG that's 12 more people at this house. It does happen every year but usually just for 3 days. I will keep lovely company with my and I mean "MY" woman cave, like I'm going to timeout I'm sure. With the rest of the blocks I'm going to make placemats and then let the families take them home with them. Think it will be a fun remembrance and I know they will love it. So ladies I kept some, I'm playing with others because you helped me make a great memory. Thank you!

    I do see them, Jaba. You certainly did them justice! And what a nice way to give everyone in the family a momento of a fun family- get- together. Do you happen to have a daybed in your woman cave? That's going to be a whole lot of "togetherness", but I know you're looking forward to it too! I have not met my first greatgrandson yet. I'm kinda' looking forward to that. Then I have a greatgranddaughter due in July. Needless to say, I'm up to my eyeballs making "baby stuff" right now. You know, I love this stage of my life!

    They all will start rolling in on the 27th so you know what I will be sewing on for the next week. Hope I can get them done. Yup lots of togetherness, this is when I'm very glad I have a large house and if nothing else we'll use the toy hauler too You need to go meet those great grandchildren, they wear you out but it's a very good tired. Mine are both girls, 2 and 5

    Got all of the placemats done last week so am ready for the "crew" to arrive. Thank you again to all of you for making such nice blocks for this swap. It's looking very patriotic around here..[ATTACH=CONFIG]480240[/ATTACH]

    I like them so much Libster, don't really want to give them away! I'll have to think on this one for sure, we shall see. Might have to keep them for the every year reunion. Can't believe what awesome blocks I received from this swap, they were so easy to put together. Thank you thank you everyone again!!! Very pleased on this end.
