I hope to get them in the mail on Saturday, but it may be Monday. Tomorrow I'm taking a class with Bonnie Hunter of Quiltsville.com - it's a scrappy class, of course! I'm so excited!!! She's the program presenter tonight at our guild meeting. This will mean 3 trips this week to Greensboro for my quilting - yikes! So much for trying to save gas. But I've been staying at home for weeks, so I guess I'm allowed the trips this week?

The fabrics have been swapped and packaged up to mail so I will get them out this afternoon. I hope everyone had a good time with this. I added a little something to the envelopes as I packaged them and think one of my suprises may have been left out. I am so sorry if that happened. I just could not stand the thought of opening all the envelopes to search and see. Anyway, if you do not get a surprise from me in your envelope, let me know and if you join in on the July Swap (the next one I host), I will send it then. Jeanne

While staying with my daughter, I decided to try this pattern. I had brought some fq's with me. I got busy cutting, going along smoothly and then discovered that the blocks have to be cut, all facing up. So I now have 26 pinwheels going in one direction and 26 in the opposite. Have to dream up a setting where I can use both. They may go into the "later" pile. Thanks to you for thinking (and praying) for daughter. We still do not have a diagnosis but tests are continuing.

Amy - thanks for sending the link! Those are both adorable! I'm glad I'm not the only one who falls out of the ditch.... I can only stay in it if I sew at a snail's pace, and I haven't the patience for that. I LOVE the colors of your JoAnn's one - and the bugs and embroidery stitches are so cute. Makes me want to get an embroidery machine! I have a very simple machine. Thanks for sharing, and again for the pattern - I can't wait to use it. :D Marcia
