I just posted changes...there are a total of 15 ladies with 7 new gals. I must say that I enjoy being the swap mama. I always have a wonderful group of ladies that enjoy swapping such beautiful blocks.

Because I was so slow, I missed out on the last one, so sign me up! I would like to exchange with girls I haven't yet, but it looks like you have a good bunch of new girls doing this too Julie! My blocks should get to you Monday or Tuesday. I'm so glad you're enjoying doing this, thank you being swap mama! :)

That is correct Joanna. You only need to make for the 7 new gals. If in the future one of the old swappers joins again...I have a list of all the swaps. I will email and let the old swapper know how many she should make. I know who has what blocks. That way if someone can't make a particular swap...and then joins the next swap offered...I will know who she has or hasn't received blocks from. (I hope this makes sense.)

So this is my first swap and I need to make 16 squares plus one for myself? Is the swap completed or this round closed?? I see several different numbers and I want to have enough to send. Thanks for the info. Smiles, Beth

Beth, you would send in 15 and keep the 16th one for yourself. Now some do send in all sixteen blocks and then I send their one back. Either way is ok with me. This round is not done. Only the sign-up is done. You have until the 31st of May to send them in. On June 7th I send the blocks all back to everyone. If I don't get some of the blocks on time...then they will go towards the next swap.
