    Gosh, I feel like I haven't been here in ages!
    The blocks are really starting to fly now and they are gorgeous!

    I received completed blocks from cherrie, jlin52, and quiltingnonie this week. They are awesome! Thank you, all. I will post pictures soon.

    CELEBRATION!!! I just finished my final block for this swap. (have not received F8 from gal288) As a newbie, I am quite excited to have accomplished this. I could not have done it without seeing all your blocks and the hard work you all put into them. I would be honored to have received any of the blocks I have seen here. You all have inspired me. We are all very lucky to have this board. . Now, I can just wait for the rest of my grown up blocks to come in. I hope you all like the blocks I made for you. If not, let me know, send me some fabric and I will try again. This was a great way for me to try a lot of new things. Thank you to April for her organization and hard work in putting this together. Can't wait for the next one.

    I have been without a computer for two weeks due to a virus that wiped out a lot of my documents etc, Grrrr. But I have it back now, so I want to send a big thank you to goldendog55, hobbykat1955, cherrio, and bolin0909 for the beautiful blocks that you all sent me. I will post a picture of each of them in a couple of days.

    yeah! all my blocks are done and mailed to mommy! the last 2 went in the mailman's bag this afternoon. this is such a good learning experience. I may owe KT another block. I tried applique and am not happy with the result. I will try again; just on my own fabric next time sorry KT. Can't wait for the rest of my blocks to filter in. I have 19 so far. thanks ladies!

    I just thought I posted here but I don't see it! Very strange these computers are. I cut amd bagged everything first so have not done lots of sewing but just finished quiltedhorse's block. I was concerned there would not be enough contrast but I like it. I hope you do too. Just got a great pinwheel variation from sustraley. What is the name of this particular pinwheel? Gonna iron all I have and attempt to post pics. Am loving the bright colors. Thanks to everyone. This is so fun I already vosidering the Fun and Funky Winter swap.

    Yikes - you are amazing! And fast! But...you lit a fire under my _ _ _! Thanks. I completed 3 blocks today (for DonnaD, Leann and Troy26) and will do some more tomorrow and each day until done.

    We just planned a trip to NH and ME for most of August to escape the heat of PA, so I gotta get 'em done quick.

    I'm burning - but thanks for the fire!

    It is mine. It was wrapped in pink Saran wrap. I thought it was red. I just seen the blue fabric and thought it was Aunt Sue's. I am sorry. I should have opened it's but I honestly thought it was not mine. :oops: I am using navy and orange for this group and purples in the North group. I am sorry for all the mess up.

    No problem....I will get it back to you asap!
