Sue

Glassquilt's-August 10th, I think. Leaves, any size

August 28th

LOL Mary-on my list you are #9, and I was reading that as the date. Didn't even notice the little 28 behind the August. Oh well, I am ready!

I just finished Glassquilt's block. I was foundation piecing it and wanted to get it done early just in case it didn't work out so I could go to plan B. I love it so I hope you do too Mary! I was hoping to deliver it in person because we go to my family reunion in central Ill. every August and spend a few days in Chicago before or after but can only get away for a few days this year as kids have summer jobs and need the money for college.

Mary

Cool!

Well, it's back to the drawing board! I finished Glass's block then read the birthday list again and noticed that she wanted cream or tan background for her leaf blocks. I used WOW!!! I need the practice on foundation piecing so will make another one. I will send the first one also....my lack of reading skills is your gain Glass!

Mary

Glass, I got yours in the mail today. I gotta work on my applique skills. I enjoy it, just not real good at it.

beverly

beverly

Michele

Mary, I am mailing your block today! Sorry I'm not so great at applique yet...

Tamie

Glassquilt -

I have your block designed, just have to pick the fabric. Do you prefer your cream/light tan background to be solid, or do you like tiny prints? Also, should the leaves be authentic colors? I'm leaning toward batiks for the leaves, but thought I should check.

Bonnie

Bonnie -
I have no preference for the background. Leaves needn't be authentic. Thank you.

Glass

Mailed it today!!! Hope you like.
Susie

Glass, your squishie is on it's way!

Rebecca

Glass -

Your block is packaged and ready to be mailed tomorrow.

Bonnie

I opened my squishies and have a lovely collection of leaves. Now I'll have to figure out an arrangement.

I will post pictures when I have them all.

Got my squishie from maladybyte in today's mail.

Happy Belated Birthday Glass!

Well, now I am getting worried about your block not getting there yet. I sent a package to dlhealdquilter the same day to North Dakota and it got there on Friday. Maybe your block is taking a detour through Canada :).

No interesting mail today. Not fair if it went to Canada without me - we haven't been there since '04.

maladybyte - forgot to mention the cute origami heart. Can't figure out how you did it. Thanks.

So glad you like it and hope you had a terrific birthday!!

Connie

cannahavana- Got your block today. Thanks

Whew...yay!

Hi Glass,

Your blocks are ready to mail...I packed away my sewing stuff before vacation and your blocks ended up in the tote with all of the other stuff. Tonight was my first chance to sew and I found them. So sorry for the delay. I trust you had a very happy birthday
I will put the squishie in the mail on Monday and send it airmail.

Mary

Mary -

That's OK. Just more fun to look forward to.

Glasws

Glass,
I have your block done and will mail it out tomorrow.Sorry it's late.Kathi

Kathi - Your block came today. Thank you.

Tuppermom,

Glass

In alphabetical order by forum name here are all the beautiful birthday blocks I received. As I opened each envelope I thought each block was lovely. Put them all together and all the blocks are gorgeous.

Thank you very, very much.

I dragged my board of insulation up to my sewing room just so I could get this picture. Now I have to get it covered.
{{!gwi}}

Glass, thanks for posting the pics. What wonderful blocks :).

Cheryl

What a beautiful quilt those blocks will make! Since making mine for you, I have become much more aware of the various leaf shapes as we walk our dogs each morning. I may have to add yet another quilt to my growing to-do list!!

Bonnie

What a great collection. Bonnie, I love the ginko.
