    Smile Thank you!

    Here are the wonderful blocks I received in the swap. I will probably not put them all together in the same quilt. I am in several other swaps and I think some of the blocks might go better in there but I love all of them.

    Oh crafty no need for you to be sorry. What was odd also is that the inside plastic bag was completely open and gaping. I assume that was zipped shut when it was send. Thank fully all seem to be there.

    Oh as for some of the blocks I plan to put in with other blocks from swaps, they are the adorable paper pieced bird house and the cute blue and green gnome mushroom house.The bird house, I plan to put with blocks from the paper piece swap I am in and the gnome mushroom house I plan to put with the magical forest swap blocks I receive from that swap.

    Another way to do it is to make all the blocks the same size by adding to the smaller ones ( say using the log cabin effect or some other ). Then you can lay them all out and place them where you want them.

    I received my fabulous blocks. The castle is perfect for my "little princess" granddaughter. The lighthouse will remind me of my mother who loved them. The large house is perfect for representing my home. Thank you all ladies. I really love them.
