Susanne.Hughes Posted February 6, 2008 Report Share Posted February 6, 2008 Good Morning Girls, I would like to say thank you to Teresa and Barbara for my lovely blocks. It is fun to receive these packages. I am already thinking about the layout for the quilt. I have 10 blocks completed, another two cut out. Once I have them all done I will mail them. My poor husband was going on about how......ÿou should be quilting and practicing on your Longarm, not quilt for fun!!!" --------How wrong can men be sometimes??? Enjoy your day........

BethDurand Posted February 7, 2008 Report Share Posted February 7, 2008 Hi Everyone! My computer at home is being a pill, and won\'t let me on. I can\'t seem to login on my husbands, so I can read, but can\'t talk to anyone. Finally here at work, and the silly thing is so slow that it\'s frustrating! Anyway, I\'ve received 2 more lovely blocks, one from Bev Hogan, and I\'m sorry, but can\'t recall the other name now that I\'m at work. Hey Bev, you and I live in the same part of of the same town! Small world, but I bet you figured that out when you wrote down my address. Hopefully this weekend DH will be able to get my computer back up and connected. Speaking of DH, woud you please pray for him and his job situation? He did a career change a few years ago, decided to go to nursing school, then decided that wasn\'t for him after all. So tired of high tech, but did some more just for a job. Finally got one that he was really starting to like, and after 4 weeks the portion of the company that he works at was sold to another local company. I\'ve heard nothing but good about Precision Castparts from others who have worked, or known people who worked for them, and they are the ones who bought out XRI. I know that it will all work out fine, that God\'s got a plan, but he\'s still on angry about this. Able to verbalize that he knows we\'ll be fine, but did it have to be the same week I cut down my "real" job to 3 days a week?! Thanks in advance for the support, the frienship blocks and the conversation. You are all just the best! Beth Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

bobbi Posted February 7, 2008 Report Share Posted February 7, 2008 Hi Everybody! Good heavens, I am soooo happy to be among the living... that flu stuff is for the birds it\'s been 2 1/2 weeks and I finally feel better.... the antibiotic and the cough syrup with codene sure helped! Feel like I\'ve been in a stupor for a while! Anyway, I read back thru this thread to see who all received their blocks from me.... Thanks to Melora, MerryJo, Donna, Judi O, Kristi (W?), Beverly, Dianne, Marylyn, and Wilma for letting me know you received my blocks. I hope Claudia and Linzi get theirs soon... don\'t know how long it takes from Ohio to Europe. I don\'t think I\'ve heard from Cathy, Kristi Combs, or Jo Rogers who are all "States side". Are they lost? I hope not, but let me know! If you already let me know, just chalk it up to the cough syrup stupor!!! Hope everyone is well and having a great February!!!!

Judi Posted February 8, 2008 Report Share Posted February 8, 2008 Oh Beth - It will be o.k. - I will keep your family in my thoughts and prayers! Been thinking about Teresa too, and anybody out in the TN area - - bad storms - - hope all of you are safe and doing well! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
chickenscratch Posted February 8, 2008 Report Share Posted February 8, 2008 Judi, We are fine, but some people around us have been killed, and many homes destroyed. The official damage estimate as of today (residetial and commerical together) is 88 million dollars in damage. The tornado that hit Jackson was an F4 with 247 mph winds, they say. I got 2 beautiful blocks in the mail today:P Thanks to Bev Hogan (I love that pattern) and to Wilma Depriest (where did you get the fab fabric?) I am so glad we are all having fun doing these exchanges. I can\'t wait to start the next one. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Quilting Heidi Posted February 8, 2008 Report Share Posted February 8, 2008 Bev I got my block yesterday. THank you! I have 5 of my blocks stitched. I may just finish them all this weekend...it went rather quickly once I had them all cut. I think I\'ll be mailing them all at one time though.

chickenscratch Posted February 9, 2008 Report Share Posted February 9, 2008 Barb, those look really neat together. They all have a little bit of red and a little bit of brown or green in them. Isn\'t it funny how they fit together even though you wouldn\'t think they would. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
DB Posted February 9, 2008 Report Share Posted February 9, 2008 Thank you to Melora and Merry Jo for two wonderful blocks. I will start sending mine out this coming week. DB (Dianne) Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
sewlinzi Posted February 9, 2008 Report Share Posted February 9, 2008 I spent about an hour and a half this afternoon ranting at everyone as I had mysteriously LOST more than half of my block units and the construction diagrams:mad: I was fizzing! Then suddenly had a flash of inspiration and discovered a stash of strip piecing hanging on a quilt pulley in the workshop (yes, I did put them up there!) and the diagrams were underneath my cutting mat (big sigh of relief!) So finally all the litlle bits are all lined up neatly ready for assembly in ONE PLACE!! LINZI x Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
love2qlt4u Posted February 10, 2008 Report Share Posted February 10, 2008 Wilma received your block today. The colors are great, and will go with the others I\'ve gotten so nicely. Thanks :P:P Barbara Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Sandra Darlington Posted February 10, 2008 Report Share Posted February 10, 2008 Thank you Bev Hogan! I received your lovely block today and am thrilled with it. I love the way you embroidered your name, city, state and the year. Your piecing is just fine...what do you mean that your seams didnt match? Of course they did. It looks terrific. Many thanks, To Wilma DePriest - Thank you for the wonderful block. I love the fabrics (in fact, I have 2 of them in my stash). It really looks very nice and will look great with my other blocks.

GramieSnooks Posted February 10, 2008 Report Share Posted February 10, 2008 Wilma, It must be your "red letter" day, I got your block today too. It is great, as I mentioned before, we are partial to purple at our house. Thanks so much. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
