Thursday, August 28, 2008
Thank you Angela!!!
I have been in the block swap for 2 months now, but I just got my first block today! It is a beautiful Christmas tree from my August partner Angela. She is very talented! I haven't heard from my July partner in a long time...Emma, I hope everything is OK across the pond. I will post a picture when I get another minute. We live just outside of New Orleans and are preparing for the hurricane due in a few days. Pray for the safety of everyone!

Blog invitations for new members
We've had so many new members in the last few months, I'm afraid I have fallen behind in sending invitations to join the blog. If you have not received one, please send me an email and let me know.
Thanks,
Sandi

Sent my block to Kathy
I posted my blocks to Kathy last week - let me know when you get them. I've been enjoying the Olympics, but it's on so late! Some of the finals haven't finished until midnight - and I really need my beauty sleep. LOL Hope everyone is enjoying the end of summer - Dana

Finally worked out how to post a message!
I have been wanting to show off the blocks I have received this year but I was not able to post a message here until recently. I have received 7 wonderful blocks from my lovely swap partners all of which I plan on sewing together to make a 'swap quilt'. The blocks are quite similar in colours, people have used maroons that are almost the same, so it should look great. I j ust love that it will be made by so many people, a quilt of friendship indeed. I am sorry that I cannot remember who made what, I jumbled the envelopes and blocks. I am making it a new rule of mine to mark the back of the blocks with the name of the swap partner who made it.
I must also mention there is another 2 blocks that I received that are not in this picture, the blocks are at my mothers and I haven't picked it up yet.





I hope everyone is enjoying swapping, I know I am! Thank you very very much to all my swap partners I really love the blocks you have sent me, hope you like the ones I have sent you!

June Blocks
Hello again! I wanted to post pictures of the blocks I sent to my June partner. She should have them by now so I shouldn't be ruining the surprise. :)
She wanted any thing done in autumn colors in a 12 inch block. Which left it pretty wide open! lol
So I did one, then did another and then decided to just go ahead and send both! So here are the photos. I think my favorite is the one with the ginko leaves. I just love that fabric!
