Mail from Australia

 I received my wonderful Block from Brenda in Australia. She also send these lovely fabrics. Thank you so much.

Yesterday I meet with my friends to sew. Once a month we do that. I took all my blocks along to show off. They really liked the blocks and the pattern that shows once I laid out all of the blocks. I'm waiting for one more and than I should really get busy. We talked about the borders and what I should use to finish of the quilt. But we are 5 Girls and can you belive it every one has a different opinion. So I might just stay with what I wanted to do before I asked. Lol.

Thank you so much Jackie. You are all spoiling me.

I will have to start on my own block to add to the Quilt. I'm thinking of making a few more than one, to get to the size I want. Which wont be a problem with all the fabric everyone send.

Row swap and Friendship Block swap


This is the second row that I received. Isn't gorgeous. Thank you so much Jan. I love the colors and it goes great with the first row I got from Jytte. Jan also send this fabulous card along with it.






Then I got my first Friendship Block. About 16 Month ago I signed up for a Friendship block swap. Every month one name got drawn and we had to make one block for that person. Every person had chosen a Theme. (I have a little slide show on the side bar with all the blocks I did for everyone that is in the swap with me). So this month its my turn. ( I had a long wait). My Theme is the Jacobs ladder. So everyone is making me a block with the Jacobs ladder. Kims Block arrived first. This is a lot of fun. Cant wait to put all the blocks together.
