Count me in! Don't know how many I can make as I also have the Winter swap & One-a-Month Quilting Bee swap, but it will be as many as I can up to 10!!
A 5 inch potholder is awfully small, at least for my hands!! An 8 inch would be more in line! Just a thought....
By the way, I mailed my red/white/blue swap blocks (24 blocks) from west Texas to NY by 1st class mail & they both came & went within a 3-5 day time limit. Priority Mail is a bit pricy for those of us on a fixed income. Also from west Texas to Calif would go quickly, even by 1st class mail! That should be an okay option....
