I like the bottom right one. All the blocks are great.

Oh dear... How sweet you are to say that. You are so very welcome. I am looking forward to swapping them out and getting them back to everyone. That is the fun part, getting all your blocks and making a plan to set them up into a top. Even the quilting should be fun because of all the different images to quilt over.
So hurry one and all to get them here so we can have some fun girls! Thirteen days to the day they must be here.

There have been a couple pm's to me about the date the blocks must be here to me. The very last day they absolutely must be here is the 15th of this month.
My post man comes in the late afternoon. On that day I will set up my dining room to do the swap and possibly swap them all that afternoon, or at the latest early the next morning. Then I drive them back to the main post office asap to return to you gals. This cuts a day off you receiving them back. For my post office up here would take them to the main post office a day after receiving them for re-sorting down there.
I know some hostesses give themselves a couple weeks to get it all done. But, you see. I just go and go until it is accomplished. Whatever the time it takes, that is what I do. I get excited after other swaps I have been in, and I know how it feels to wait.
You see there will be no blocks left to swap out after that day. So Please, if you want to swap, get them here on time!
I sure don't want anyone to miss out on the fun and to have to return your beautiful blocks back to you.
