Sew-in-Sews - Polardream birthday blocks

15 years ago

What a wonderful way to start the new year & celebrate my birthday (yes, I cheated & opened them yesterday!!) We were gone over the Christmas holidays but picked up mail yesterday and I have received 4 lovely birthday blocks so far:

Sally (Nana24), Bill (lockeb)& cute flowerbasket of needles), Ana (Annabelle1941) & sweet flower pin, and Dianne (dian57).

Thank you everyone! They will make a great Christmas quilt!

I love BDs that never end. I posted early as I go to the PO when I can and decided it is better early then late. I have all my blocks made for the year just incase I get bogged down. Lite a candle each day and celebrate. Jayne

This month has been absolutely crazy so far, and I haven't been able to get my act together and get to the Post Office. Your block is finished, and I just need to remember to mail it, i keep ending up at the Post Office spontaneously . . . without it :( So I'm sorry it will be late for your birthday, but I'll get it out in the next couple days and will let you know. So sorry, and I hope you're having a great Thanksgiving, and that your birthday is wonderful!

Sue, my block will go out this week. I was out of town for Christmas and had to work New Year's Eve and day, so I'm running behind. I hope you have a wonderful birthday!

Happy Birthday!

I'm sorry, but I've also started the New Year running behind with too much to do. I meant to post earlier to let you know, but your block is almost done and will be in the mail this week. I'll let you know when I send it, and I'm so sorry for the delay.
