Thank you, Marilyn. Will do! I have been thinking I need to bling that ole black boot up! LOL Yes, we do get busy and tend not notice things. My hubby will be bleeding and I say the same thing to him.

Betty hope your foot heals quickly! My blocks were dropped of last night so everyone should receive them soon. I some one does not get squares from me let me know and I will send another. I'm loving the blocks I have received, they are all so cute and different. Linda I love the envelope, very unique. I'm going to press my squares and stack them like a real "layer cake" and look for a cute project to make with them. Denise Ann |

I plan to use my blocks in a quilt with borders around the blocks with applique hearts in corner squares. Then have it machine quilted with heart designs.

Oh, Betty, take good care of your foot! Did they rule out a bone fracture?

Judith, I have just read about your charity quilt and I would be willing to help in any way you need as well. also, I have seen a few people have gotten my squares so far but please let me know if you do not get one from me for some reason cause I sent them out to everyone, but I noticed my postal worker weighed mine and told me just one stamp but I have noticed others spending a lot more for mailing, so please let me know if you never get one from me!

Woke up to 6 degrees in Grand Rapids, MI! Ended at 23 degrees. LOL!
I can't wait to get home and see all my squares.
Marti - LOL! Yours was sent out twice. I mailed it one day and the next it arrived in MY mailbox. I took it to the PO and told them the mistake and they mailed it again.

Linda, I had that happen on a card. I had put the return address label on the back and someone sent it to me. Perhaps that explains why the postal service has issues. You need to come home to warm Texas, haha, as we dive again. At least our dives are usually not below the teens.

Yep, Marilyn. That's what happened. I put the return address label on the back and It got sent back to me instead of out in the mail.

I have quite a pile of squares collected for my project. I'm thinking of making an envelope on background and then having hearts spilling out. Can't wait to get started!
Enjoying the day! Cristy |
