I'll pray for you that it's just the flu 
YOU HOO ..... OVER HERE!!! Do you see me waving at you, I'm still participating - fabric is here; just finishing up something else first.
I've been following along up through this past Monday when the flu bug came calling; I haven't been sick like that since I had morning sickness thirty years ago. It's nasty; today I'm almost back to my normal self - what ever that might be. Should be able to start on this home decor project this next week.

I totally understand you. I was burnt bad in a Christmas swap and didn't join any swaps for a very long time because of it.

OK, this is a PSA, so that everyone knows, and maybe this will offer a little incentive to the procrastinators. Everyone in this group is tied to at least 2 other people. Nobody is receiving from who they're shipping to. So with the wait til everyone is ready to ship rule added, if you're last minute or late finishing, you're not just holding up your partner from getting their item. You're holding up at least 2 people from both getting and shipping theirs too. There's always going to be people who are late, and some of that can't be helped because life happens and we understand that. But, if you're just procrastinating, all I can say is "get on the stick chick!"

I finally found the perfect fabric and have ordered it, I get a idea in my head and it just won't go away. I will be starting this week, hopefully the floor people will be starting on my house, two weeks since the great flood and still no flooring.

Would this be a swap? I have never joined any of the block swaps because I didn't really understand the directions. If we had enough people we could change partners every month and kinda follow a color pattern for that person. Just a thought.
sikesjj, it looks like it's fairly easy blocks, but with lots of appliqued pieces too. Only the first block is up so far. Runs through August, 2014.

Sikesjj, I would have to get permission from the admins and the pattern creator to do a swap on this pattern, but if several people are interested, I can contact Sindy about it. If you miss a month when the BOM is posted on her site for free, she charges $5 to get the previous month's pattern, and she sells the full pattern for $20, so I don't know if she would ok it or not. If she did, the next challenge is getting it approved and everyone getting it downloaded by the end of the month. I don't believe she'll let us share it with latecomers, but I could be wrong.
