I accidentally cut a couple blocks too small. The easy fix is to cut off a little bit more and then add another strip to the block. Added design feature and an easy save!

hugs, Jupiter

1. I have some rose blocks that i don't know who sent them to me. My daughter said she would help me post the blocks I have gotten. Hopefully in the next couple of days. I am missing 5 blocks. If you haven't sent me yours please pm me and let me know. I Have talked to Mbogenpohl and send me yours when you get time no hurry. I am also waiting on Newtoquilting. I have down i have some that may be the ones i haven't recieved but I have to go thru them later.
Being my first Boomerang I didn't realize i needed to keep better records of the blocks and F8s i have gotten. I learned my lesson and have done better with 4.
I am busy finishing up no. 3 and have gotten some done on 4 I plan on having all of 3 done this week and all of 4 done by the middle of next month.
Just wanted everyone to know yours is coming. I haven't forgotten anyone.
These are the ones i have left to send.
Goldendog
Jupiter
Knismith
Moonrise
Purplemen
Quiltinggirl 80
Quiltingturtle
Quiltin
Shaysmema have both done and leaving tomorrow.

I have learned one thing doing this I just fussy cut the second block. And i will never do it again. For the second time i am struggling to make something out of it because i screwed it up. Went 2 places today trying to get some of the fabric and can't find it anywhere. If anyone out there has any of Goldendogs fabric left and would send it to me i would be grateful. I haven't asked her because i know she probably needs all she has left. I was trying to get her 3 done because i have 4 done and wanted to get them sent to her. When i cut my blocks i cut them to small by 1/2 inch. Stupid me. I knew better.

I promise I am keeping better records with no. 4 I have learned my lesson.

hugs, Jupiter

I really do love this one. It catches my eye and my heart!

Love the quilt Cat! Beautiful
Karen & knl I am sorry that the swap was not as fun for you as it could have been. I do understand how you feel and hope to swap with you both in the future some time :-)

As for those of you who all have the same list-I am working on it. I know mbogenpohl is working on hers as is Odessa. I am sending an envelope to new2quilting to get the fabrics and get them back to you all. I have contacted the other ladies and will keep you all updated :-)

I thank all of you again for participating in this swap and for doing your part to make it great.

Hugs
April
