    Alaska Sunshine, I noticed that too. But it was only 3 or 4 blocks and I took them and put them in soda water to soak for a few days. Hope that helps.
    Your block was one of my favorite ones. I loved that fabric that had the words hope in it. All of them together were beautiful. Happy I reveived one.

    Now I have to figure out how to salvage these blocks. This is a process I should not need to incur.

    I am sorry if my comments are upsetting to anyone. I am just highly sensitive to smoke smells.

    All non-smokers are highly sensitive to smoke smells. It always amazes me that some - very few - quilters smoke. To go through all the cost of fabric, the time spent, etc. only to have your beautiful quilt smell like cigarettes.

    I received the most beautiful blocks! I will post the picture of the sampler quilt I make from them! I want to thank you all for sharing your beautiful work and talent with me!
    Thanks to: JRSAY, Alaska Sunshine, ChrysRose, JaneCat, Bailey'sMom, AK Angel, DonnaMitchell, MrsPete, and Mosher92(2), and ??. One block lost its label. They are all gorgeous! Thank you.
