This is getting too funny.. I'm spending way too much time playing with 1.5" squares.. but it is very relaxing.. I don't remember any time that I've spent watching so much t.v...
Mary took Vena away from me, as she was over booked.. I am getting a little mixed up with the names.. I'll get over it..
My hand doesn't hurt from using the scissor, as it is very sharp, and I go through about ten folds, but more so from the mouse, and computer.. Think I'm addicted to modern technology.. I use a laptop at work, and home, but like a cordless mouse.. I have rotary cutters, and use them, but the pices are small, and annoy me..
I started to open the little packages I got in the last swaps, and I'm a little amazed that I have found very little duplication.. Yes.. I was curious when I got them, and looked , but really didn't have time to play with them..

barri1 also got me as a swap parnter in the Curious Quilter Swap. I advised her that I'm using the same charms there as I am for this one, hoping she doesn't mind duplicates. If there's a way I can designate a particular baggie for her I'd add different fabrics. Mariposa, any help there?

Mariposa.. You were able to do it for me, and Twisted Quilter. We've been sharing scraps. Please don't go out of your way.. You have enough to do.. I'm okay with whatever..

Mariposa, I'll put a note in my package and let you know who I swapped with on CQ. It does sound like it could turn into a swapping nightmare. I have worried about someone getting dups though.

well if you get dups between the two swaps, just use the dups for other projects. we are going to turn this into a nightmare for mariposa and it's not due to her swap but because of another swap we are in that has nothing to do with the quilt board swap. let's try not to make more work for mariposa.

in real life, we can figure out what to do with any dups we get.

Everyone, as I've said before, I'm OK with dupes. Some of mine are sewn together in the same quadrant because they look good together. I love symmetry! Mariposa, don't go out of your way on my account. I'll take any of these little charms!
