    Jetnica -- your extra block is awaiting completion of an upgrade in the software of my sewing machine, so please be patient with me. Remember the old days when sewing machines only had foot pedals -- now they have computers that beep, bing, and flashes me angry faces when I make a mistake. If I still don't do it right it shows me a video. Nice to know that I'm being put down by a machine -- at least I still control the on switch.

    No rush - no worries!! You had a lot of "extra" blocks this month!

    I know it's wrong, but I've learned that most electronics are girls -- they need to be cuddled and complimented in order for them to do what you want them to do! =)

    I hope I can go to the PO tomorrow -- I have two Dr. Appts and I'm hoping my mom will take me after those, or the BF will take me after he gets home from work. =)

    I received a beautiful block from Yorkiemom over the weekend and wanted to make sure everyone sees her beautiful work. It was like receiving a piece of sunshine. Thank you so much.

    hi dotty, some ladies are happy to make 'extra blocks' via 'pm'.
    if you announce on this thread that you would be happy to do an extra, others will answer your plea.
    love jacquie xxxx

    It's extra because it is not really part of the monthly swap, but if you enjoy making more blocks each month, the quilt that you are working on will grow faster. It's just for fun!
