GrannysRoost: I got it and thank you! I am still putting together the quilt from the first swap, Depression Era block. Funny to get it yesterday though, because I had pulled out the blocks to get a fabric fix and was going to lay them out on the bed to get an idea about how pretty this was...

I'm glad that the blocks are showing up. I That song you were singing was the first record I ever owned. My mom gave us each a record (single) for easter one year. I listened to it all the time, right up until my sister put the chair leg on it and sat down - crunch! She said it was an...

Hey y'all! Guess what finally showed up in my mailbox !?! Just when I had given up hope of ever seeing them again, the package shows up. The blocks are here and heading back out to you. I am enclosing a SASE for the return of a block to me, if you so desire.

I have everyone address and am filling out envelopes tonight. I am sending a self-addressed stamped envelope so all you will need to do is put a block in the envelope and put it in the mailbox. I'm still waiting on the postman to bring me my blocks back. As soon as they get here, they will go...

Just so everyone knows, Please PM me your address. Then when the blocks make it back to me, I will send you a block. One last apology for messing this swap up, life sideswiped me and I failed you all. I feel terrible about it. I hope you can forgive me.

OH, I am so sorry that my blocks didn't make it in time to go out with everyone elses! I should have checked on here sooner to see that you were sending the blocks out, now I feel awful that you have extra to do. A week away really makes for alot of stuff to catch up on, here and at home...

Hey all, sorry to abandon you like that - life's weirdness got weirder! I was unexpectantly sent out in the field last week and just got home late last night. I do have the blocks done, but forgot them on the counter this morning - will be in the mail tomorrow morning if you still want me to...

I am almost finished with my blocks - just a couple more rows to sew and then ironing all the seams flat. I was so mad about how much red dye came off the fabric that I bought. For what I paid for it, it shouldn't run like that. Good thing I washed it before sewing! I had to rinse it over...

Someone asked for quatities so I did a quick calculation - if anyone wants to check on my numbers, please do! I calculated on a 40" wide fabric - from selvage to selvage. This is for all 12 blocks RED - 18" (1/2 yard) 48 - 3 1/2" squares BLUE - 10" (1/3 yard)...

I hope that mostly blue is close enough, otherwise I think I will need to buy fabric - I have alot that is mostly blue, but very little, if any, that is just blue on blue. Same with the reds - mostly red, but with a pattern on it. I always check that it "reads" the right color. Drape it...

Quote: I really don't think that the Carrie Nation is a hard pattern, it just looks really complicated. The hardest part will be to make sure that the blue and white squares form a line down the center. I always have to lay out the pieces into the finished block shape before I start sewing...

I would love to do another one! I was afraid I would be banned for life for being late last time. I got two blocks last week, so I think that is all of them. So I have 10 that I received from others. DH was laughing at me - had them spread out on the bed, moving and turning the blocks to...

I love the idea of that block in Red, White and Blues! That will be so pretty!
