Talked to stitch. She is fine. Just life getting in the way of what she really wants to be doing.

Just received the last one and will try to get them sorted and into the mail within the next 2 or 3 days. Life has been so hectic and I thank you all so much for the messages to check on me and keep each other up to date about the swaps I have been hosting. You have all been such a blessing to me and I hope you know how special you all are.
Happy stitching!!

I hate to sound stupid but could someone explain what a "jelly roll" is?

No question is stupid. We all learn from each other.

A jelly roll is fabric cut 2 1/2" wide (width of fabric - usually 44-45" wide). There is usually around 40 - 44 strips of assorted fabric which is placed one on top of the other then rolled up - like jellyrolls. My Granny used to make the best jellyrolls - the edible ones not the fabric ones. They do kinda of look like jellyrolls!

Oh, there is a theme too like this one is Christmas fabric.

Here's a website that has them:

This is just to give you an idea, I've never bought from them.

Thanks Evie...I think I have actually seen something like that at my LQS but I didn't know they were called jelly rolls. Good to know.

I do not believe they have been mailed. I have PM stitch to try and find out where we are with all the swaps and offered to help her if need be. I know she has been really swamped with work responsibilities and things with her girls. As I said it took 5 days or so for my priority mail to get here and that is only 60 miles. The mess up with the 1800's made it take up to 2 weeks for delivery. This is something going on at the Post office I think.
