Whew! I was so relieved. Sally i was going totally nuts! my first piecing (by my very own self anyway) and it was work! lol but so fun. The block i ended up using most (i did mix it up at first trying to find the one i really liked) I've made extras of and am making a big quilt with them :D. Diana, i was soooooo afraid they were in mail lalaland. Thank goodness it was only a nonquilter as Shanda said so it was purely not understanding the importance to me lol. Thank you all for understanding and Shirley, thanks so much for letting me know it didn't get there.. ALERT! please please let me know when you get them so i can breathe again lol.

Amy, Thanks for letting me (us) know you got the blocks. So glad you like it! I have had so much fun! I'm making quilts now for my granddaughters and I'm so excited. maybe i'll even have them done before they go to college (one's 11 years old and the other one is 2 1/2) :D

I think I may have to cry! I have three blocks done and the rest cut out, marked and ready to sew. I was get the envelopes ready to address to send out the first 3 today and thought I better measure them just to be sure. 12 and 1/4 !!! What!!! I followed the directions, measured twice and cut once. Now I'll have to figure out what went wrong. The block has 1/2 square triangles, maybe the issue is with them. GRRRrr! I will figure this out and overcome this! I am smarter than the fabric! The ruler is my friend! Oh boy.

Ditto on the little off. That is why I love to quilt it is not a perfect art form.

You get that love right back Shanda. That is what's so great about quilting, you can cut, add to, or rip the whole thing but it will always be a unique design.
I can't wait to see everybody's finished quilts.
