OMGosh - I thought for sure I had posted or PM'd you letting you know. I am so sorry. YES I received your block and HoneyB's block. They both went PERFECTLY in the middle row thanks to the pattern that Joan chose. It is finished and awaiting the other blocks to arrive and pictures to be taken on a calm day. The winds have been a bear lately.

Again my apologies to you both.

I have the rest of the fabric I need to finish the last 5 blocks for this. I got lucky and found it at Hancocks and it was 60% off. WOOHOO!!! I have the other pieces already cut out and waiting.

I am going to finish them and get them in the mail by Wednesday. I will go to the post office on my lunch break and make sure I get a tracking number also.

Oh Izzy - I am right there with you!!!!! The quilt is finished so now just waiting on the blocks to arrive so I can sort and mail them out!!!

Vivian - WONDERFUL. You and Tina are such an inspiration to us all to make your blocks while injured and very sick. You do put a new definition on Commitment. THANK YOU!!!!

Ysabel gave me hers all finished. As she lives right down the road from me we are tweeking a few of them until I get the others. A new block it is for her and looks so Christmassy!!!

THANK YOU ALSO to the rest of the Pal here for being so patient and understanding in allowing these two Pals more time to get their blocks made and mailed. It is sew very much appreciated and will not be forgotten as we piece our quilts together.

BOING, BOING, BOING!!!!

This afternoon, I have been capable to do some sewing. As mentionned previously, I had decided to keep the blocks that Maryz and Joyce had sent to me to make a pillow/cushion. I have added a dark purple border. The first picture, on one side of the pillow, is the block from Maryz and on the other side is the block from Joyce. So the pillow is reversible. Thanks!

Love & hugs

Denise

Denise, I love your pillow! I'm honored that my lilac block made it to such a prestigious place in your home. Lilacs are my favorite flower (unless sweet peas are in bloom!). Also my beloved mom's fave, so I wanted to send you what I consider the best! (((hugs))) Mary

Oh Denise,

The pillow is beautiful, I am honored to have my block along with Mary's. the same pattern, who knew, maybe we had some psychic connection going on, lol.

I hope you continue to find comfort in the fabric hugs sent to you from all your friends when the quilt arrives. I think of you often.
