Ladies, thank you so much for the blocks in the swap. I think each block swap has been wonderful. I am so excited to get these into a top. I am going t oshop for sashing fabric Sat just for this. If I can cut and start and get the top together by next weekend, my firend can machine quilt i for me. I want to have it to cover myself during treatment days and resting in between at my sisters.
You gals really outdid yourself on the blocks. I will lable Cheryl's and julia's blocks. Thank you!!

| I knew there was something I forgot! I meant to label the blocks that came without tags. So now we got to have a little scavenger hunt to see which farmgirl they belonged to. Sorry! I am so happy you all like your blocks. I love them too! |

I am so amazed at how talented you all are. Even my husband was very much impressed.
I was debating what to do w/mine and I think I will just stick w/plan A, to put sashing between each block & then bring it all together. I have a curtain rod attached to a wall that I use for displaying various quilts & art work. I am going to put up a second one on the other side of my window so I can display more works of art.
I can hardly wait to proudly assemble & display your talented works. Thank you so very much.
If I had to choose my favorite block, well, I am afraid I could not because each is my favorite.
Thank you ladies so very much.

| You're better than I am then! I pray for patience every day. Funny how I have it with my students (ok, so not ALL of the time) but I cannot always manage that patience with my hobbies! |

I got my sashing and cornerstone fabrics today. My daughter went with me to the little local quilt store, and we picked a light gold for the sashing and a brown flowered print with small cream and blue floweres. It was withthe help of the store owner, and I am just waiting for the fabric to dry in drper so I can cut tomorrow. Thank you again, ladies.

| You need 4 more then? I will see what I have in my dining room. You should have gotten two from kt knits, and you got none? You must be the one I woke up thinking about. I thought it was Sunshine, but it was you. I will see what I have here and send some more your way. Does it matter it you if they are yours or not? email me your address again and I will send some your way. Sorry about that!! |

| yes my corner blocks always start out right, but by the last one I am usually off by a 1/4" or so, usually frustrates me and I never catch it until I have finished sewing and I cannor bear ripping it out. |
