What fun you are all having with your jars of goodies already. Since I live out in a rural area, my mail usually takes an extra day or two to get here. I'm going to be watching for the mail delivery tomorrow. I'm looking forward to seeing which jars I get and from where. Such fun. I'll probably make a few more to go with them also. But, they may have to age a little first as I'm in the middle of house hunting and selling my house. Oh well, something to look forward to in the new house, whenever that is.

I have been gone since Friday for my DGD's fifth birthday. When I opened the mailbox there was this rather large envelope with my own handwriting on it. For a couple of minutes I could not figure out why I would be getting an envelope addressed to myself with my own handwriting!! Sheesh ~~ However, when I finally got through the brain cobwebs I could not open that package fast enough!! What beautiful, brilliant, fantastic, awe-inspiring (well I suppose you get the idea!!) blocks these are. They are lying on the bed in the spare room. I go in often to take a look. Thank you so much for letting me be a part of this wonderful swap.

Dorene, my gratitude and appreciation especially to you for organizing this and swapping out all 400+ of these lovely blocks.

Hugs to all,
Jay

Jay and Debbie, THANKS for letting me know the blocks are there. It's great seeing all these blocks arriving so quickly!

My package of canned goodies just arrived in my mail box! WOW!!! They are lovely! Can't wait to get started on my wallhanging, but will have to wait until I get a few other projects out of the way.

Thanks to all - gorgeous blocks!!! Thanks to Oknana for hosting this!!!

Hugs,
Nola

to me! Oh it's not my birthday but it was a great day to go to the Post Office. I got my jar blocks and they are all great!

Thanks, Dorene for all your hard work. The variety is amazing! Can't wait to see finished quilts!

Isn't this so much fun! I must confess I don't think I'll do another add blocks to a top swap again. It's so much more fun to actually receive something! lol

Love it...
Betty

You know what is so cool about this type of swap? Besides receiving the blocks from around the world, the quilt is nearly finished. All one has to do is sew the blocks together.
I hope that we can have another swap like this.


Trina

Woo Hoo! Got my package today! The blocks look even better in person. Got to finish my outreach quilt so I can start planning my table topper.

Thanks all! Thanks Doreen! I had a lot of fun doing this swap.

Mary, Trina and Betty! yeah, so happy you got yours too!!! Wha-hoo!
