    Hi everyone

    Way to go Nancia! Have you shared a picture of your first quilt anywhere?

    I am happy to see you all are having fun and moving along well. I am trying to cope with hubby recuperating and I have been numb from the waist down from own medical issues since Sunday. I am hoping it is not related to my shunt
    As always if you need me please holler.
    Hugs

    After a very productive night, last night,sewing more swap blocks, I decided to have a clean up in my sewing room this morning, because it is such a mess, but while cleaning up I found a pale pink signature block, which must have fallen out of an envelope, can anyone tell me if it is theirs, please, so that I can put it with the correct block. Thanks.

    lovingizabella-- the first quilt front i made is in the pictures category somewhere. however, the first quilt i have finished is the one i made yesterday. as soon as my husband has rebounded from his business trip i will force him at camera-point to show me how to load the pictures on-line. as you know, i am techno-inept, and computer challenged.
    karen- thanks for asking! i'll put a picture up as soon as (see above) :0)
    my avatar is the quilt top i've made for my grand-daughter due in july/august. i haven't quilted it yet. it's titled: my first baby quilt for my first grandbaby.

    No squishies from the South group in awhile! :cry: :wink:

    Awaiting F8's from gal288 and mistiliz. No rush, but I just thought I'd let you know in case it should be here already.

    I will be glad to find a squishy in my squishy deprived mailbox but I think everyone here understands and has no problem with you being late. This is my first time participating here but I am impressed by what a kind, caring and compassionate group of folks I have found here.

    The block has not made it yet but I will let you know as soon as it does :-) I thank you and everyone else for the well wishes. I truly am hoping it is not an infection in the shunt...that would not be a good thing :-(

    That is one of the greatest things I have found with this group Katy-it truly is one of friendship. Some of the kindest most caring, compassionate people join this swap (and I think in part it is because we all or a big portion of us have something going on so we get life :-) )
