    I'm really glad you posted this because I didn't know I was supposed to do this, so mine aren't heat treated.

    My blocks haven't come yet so I will look again tomorrow. This is getting so exciting seeing everyone's blocks! :D

    Yay! Mine came today too. They are wonderful! The group that sorted them did a great job. Many thanks are in order. What a good site this is, thanks to all that participated in this swap! Now to see all the quilt tops put together. We all did good!

    Hurray, I got mine yesterday! They are so PRETTY! Just love all the cool fabrics, and loved going through them all. I read them all to my husband as I went through them, it was so fun seeing where they all came from. Can't wait to put them together, just have to decide how. Thanks again, ladies (and husband) for doing all the hard work.

    Norbanaquilts, It would be nice if we sent one of our blocks to Diane at the Senior Center and she can make a quilt and hang it
    in the center. Eiltcoq.

    YEA mine were waiting for me when i got home from work yesturday!!!! they are wonderful! i am so excited to use these. I am usually terrible about never doing anything with swap blocks...after a few years i usually just pass them on, or make tote bags/table runners out of them, not this time, i'm going to put together one wonderfully scrappy quilt! i participated in a much smaller siggy block swap on a different forum so i have over 200 to use, plus all of the 1/2 square triangle units from making the 200 i made, plus i did a 3 1/2" scrappy 9-patch swap about 5 years ago that will be used with these too...(yea, 2 swaps put to use :) )
    this has been my favorite swap this year..
    thank you to everyone involved who did their part to make this such a success!

    Hooray!! I received my blocks on Monday!! Everyone in the family had to check them out! They are so cool! I took out a huge cookie sheet and sorted them by color. I had 15 stacks. Not one with a duplicate fabric!! I find that amazing! Now, how to put them together! Hmmmmm, what to do?? Any ideas?
    I love being able to pick my block out of pictures. It's kind of neat seeing it in someone's home. :D
    This swap was a lot of fun! Thank you ladies! I really enjoyed the swap! :thumbup:
