You guys are going to adore the blocks I have been getting! They are so amazing and pretty. It will be a beautiful quilt when it is put together!
Well, tonight is my last night as a free woman! Back to school tomorrow. It has been great hanging out with you all this summer and I will miss the daily and sometimes hourly checking in and talking with you all. Thanks for being so much fun!! |

Oh girlies!! It is good to be here tonight! My school is so sad about our friend and then we just have a gloomy environment to begin with. :( Once the kids come in, then it will be ok. We will all be so busy with the little darlings that no one will have time to complain most of the day. I keep to myself when people get too depressing.
Cheryl: I got your blocks!! They are so beautiful and go so well with the others I have gotten already!! Great job. I have to cut mine out yet, but am working on my Halloween swap to get that mailed out this week. I have great fabric for the blocks, so I am excited! Fall is coming!! |

OMG I have that happen all the time! That's how I invent new quilt blocks! :)
Carrie: Your gorgeous blocks arrived today! Thank you so much, they are amazing. Wait until you see how many of us were thinking alike for this one. This quilt will definitely have a unified look to it when it is put together. Great job! |

| I will try to post pictures sometime soon. With my new schedule, I am never really home and ready to chill out until pretty late at night! :( School is good actually, but it takes me a few weeks to get back into a groove that makes work/home life more leveled! LOL I am going into the city on Sunday for the Farm Aid concert and tomorrow I have to clean and sew. Maybe I can post pictures then! How are you all doing anyway? |

I got my blocks done!! Oh, it was a challenge to sit and sew, but they are complete. I wish I could have added embroidery to each one, but there is something special for each block anyway.
Sheryl-lyn, I have something I am working on as well, and I just am not feeling too great yet, so I wil lmail out Monday on the way to my appointment. You should get them this week as I will send them priority mail.
I am looking forward to all the wonderful blocks from you special gals. This is going to be such a warm and cozy quilt, full of love and support. Thank you, ladies.

GRACE's blocks are here. You guys are going to be so happy with these. She outdid herself on them!! Thank you for the appliques for my flower pots too! And the whole darn box just smelled so lucious with that sachet! You are a doll!
Clare, hope you are well soon and back to perfect! Can't wait to see your blocks.
Carol Sue: You still have time. No worries. By the time I get them all, sort them and so forth it will be a little after the 15th that I send them anyway! :) |

| For those of you who are not done with your blocks yet! No freaking out about it, ok? They will get here in time. Nicie got a new job and had to drop out today, so you only need to make 15 instead of 16. If you already made 16 and sent them to me, you will get two of yours back, not just one. I am looking forward to seeing everyone's handywork! |
