Bill, hospital testing is no way to enjoy your birtday! I hope you are feeling better and all is well. I look forward to seeing pictures of your blocks.

Hi Diane,,,
You are right - but all is ok..AMEN!!! :-)
Thanks for checking in....I will definitely be taking photos once I get the rest of my blocks and get them joined up - I think this is going to be a fun quilt to put together....

Just moving this message up so I can find it in order to let you all know when my blocks arrive..I am not only missing 3 blocks for this swap...I am getting some wonderful ones and can't wait to join them up....

Can't wait to see your blocks!

mnquilter.....

I am just waiting for 3 blocks to come from this swap - and 1 block from another swap - and then I will have all of my blocks from 3 swaps.....so I will be able to join them all up and take photos..I can't wait to show you all my great blocks.....

If the people who's block I haven't received yet from this swap could let me know when they think they would be able to send, it would be appreciated...I just want to have an idea as to when I may be able to start joining all of these up...

Grammyp - I know about your machine :-)

Greetings LockEb (Bill),
Hope all is well with you. I just sent a block that reminded me of one I made for you some time ago. This one was called Carolina Star, but it made me think of the time you asked for sunflowers, and the block I constructed for your request. I just wondered how that quilt turned out. I will be off of the exchange now that I have finished all of my blocks for Patch Work Pines. Hope to return someday. I just wanted you to know that I loved your blocks and your enthusiasm.
Best Wishes to you!
Meima
(Debbie)

Hi Debbie,,,
I haven't finished with my sunflower blocks yet - I must get them out and work on them.......
It is so nice to hear from you - the blocks, the exchanges...making wonderful friends..the forums are fabulous....
Hugs,
Bill

I just wanted to update this thread..and kind of closed of my birthday blocks....
I am still missing 2 blocks:

Odessa Quilts
Chickadee_42us

Since my birthday is almost 2 months ago I not going to blame the mail any longer :-) I am going to assume that all of the blocks are in...

I want to thank everyone who sent - they are all wonderful - and as the temperatures start to get colder and the desire to stay inside grows - I will have these wonderful blocks to work with - can't wait to marry them all together - and show you what happens....

Hugs to you all!!
THANKS!
Bill
