oh moonwork, thanks for the giggle before I go to bed. Your words were so perfect for me because I have done that and prayed at the same time.....Now I have to go, thank heavens I'm home

Unfortunately, some things have come up that now prevent me from leaving so I won't be at all rushed.

Janice hope that doesn't mean you have to miss the gathering

I am leaving Saturday for a wedding then off to tour the Black Hills. We put Mail on hold with the mess at house, no hurry on my package

Janice McC

Yup, that's exactly what that means. I'm so overwhelmed now with things to do that I'm not even fighting it. Guess it's what's meant to be.

Oh so sorry Janice I was hoping life was going to settle down for you. Sending big hugs

Has anyone seen any fabric with postage design, stamps or whatever on it anywhere?? Im making a "love note" quilt and the squares look like envelopes and I am thinking of a sashing with stamps or something on it...cant find any on ebay...not sure what to call it!!

go to www.etsy.com and search for "postage stamp cotton fabric". there were a few on there that sold by the yard.

Just thought I'd let you know I've begun sorting the blocks I've rec'd to date. Wow! I've seen many, many beautiful blocks!!!!

Notes for now: I've found missing labels. It's much easier for me in the event I miscount or make a sorting mistake if the name of the maker is on the block along with the fabric owner's name so please remember to do that in the future. Also, please remember to check block sizing as you go and trim your blocks to 12 1/2 inches! If you aren't very comfortable making your blocks 12 1/2 inches yet, please do a sample block before ones you make for others.

Also, because not everyone was able to take pix of their blocks, I've gone ahead and photographed those for the gallery. I'll try to put them in soon. There are some that just shouldn't be missed and I wanted to share them with the entire group.

Guess that's it for now. I should receive Lucky_Alf2s blocks today so I'm pleased to say that once again, despite each and every one of you having lives outside of quilting, you all have come through on time. It's so nice that I can count on this group! You all rock!

Thank you traveling grandma...I went to Esty and found exactly what I was hunting for!!! THANK YOU!!!

Janice McC

Ta Da Da Da! All blocks are in! I will continue working on the sort and taking more pix. I've done Cuppy's but still have Lucky's and LJDugas' to do.

I will see that you all get your tracking #'s when I ship.
