Hi all my Christmas swapping peeps! 🎅🤶🎅🤶
I've been doing laundry all day, 7 loads! The last is in the washer now.

I'm still sewing down, I should've rounded my snow instead of the ups and down thingies LOL oh well, just taking a little longer than I thought. I may have to just print North Pole on my signs, depends on time.

How are you all doing?
We have 9 sets sitting at my house.

9 days left till I need your tracking number showing you've mailed.

Tina- wow lots going on at your house. I'm glad you were okay with the storm. I love your North Pole blocks.
Amazing ride Sharona with your blocks. I'm so glad they were okay. Looks like Christmas will be heading our way fairly soon. :)

Hello everyone - I am really not trying to play cat and mouse or hide and seek. It's just that many times I get on the laptop and either get distracted and the next thing I know hours have gone by or I have fallen asleep from a pain pill hense I make a bee line to the sewing machine and get moving again.

My progress is moving along. Again I got on the laptop to post and I got sidetracked finding an easier quicker Halloween block and didn't finish the Christmas blocks. Almost there. Will finish after therapy today as I have just 5 mitered corners to do, package them all up and get them in the mail Saturday or Monday for sure.

Everyones blocks are so splendidly festive. I sure hope you like mine. I knew I would never finish the trees so I switched to a block I knew I would be able to finish for sure.

I have plans to finish the trees for next year's Christmas Swap but we all know what the Lord thinks of our plans. I hope I will be here as I know we all do.
This way there is NO STRESS :) :) :)

Merry Stitching!!!!

I hope you all get a chance to go see the Lotto for September. I made it a very easy one. Pinwheels. Feel free to use 4.75" - or 5" Sq's if you already have some cut. The last of the summer months. Schools are still starting and I pray all will go well for every child.

Teresa, what block did you end up making?

Well I just finished sewing all mine down. I think I'll just write North Pole with permanent marker and iron it to set it.

I have Irish's tracking number! 🎉

6 days until tracking deadline to me, the 9th.

Looks like we're coming down to the wire on this year's Christmas swap. Don't forget - if you are planning to mail on Monday, it's a holiday.

Teresa, so which block did you end up doing?

Yep Monday is a holiday, no mail that day. I had that figured in when I set mailing deadline for the 9th though 😊

Only 5 days left till that mailing to me deadline.

Thank you Teresa. Your snow glove is pretty.

Well I've heard from everyone now or have their blocks so as soon as I receive I'll sort and send back.

This has been a fun swap and I really appreciate each and everyone of you making it that way. These blocks will make a great Christmas quilt or like me I'll be adding them to blocks from previous years to make a bigger quilt....I need 1 king size and 1 queen size for my kids beds to decorate. I decorate the beds in my house with Christmas quilts every year and they want to do that to theirs too, sooooo I'll be making Christmas quilts for grandkids beds as I can with future swaps! They all love all the blocks that everyone makes. Thank you ❤
Tina
