Thanks Evie and Thank You Ladies! They are all beautiful! Now which pattern was I going to do? Maybe the Summer Porch! How thoughtful of you Evie for the pattern and batting. Can't wait to try it!

They haven't made it to San Diego yet! Maybe I'll get mine tomorrow.

You all have made me curious as to the pattern Evie sent.

Evie, You are a sweetheart!!! I have 2 of these potholders made like the pattern & I just LOVE them!! My DSister sent them to me some time ago. They was great & really work well. Now I just need to sit down & do a few more!!

PS. I received the charms too!!!

I got my charms today and I love them all,thank you Evie for the gift it was a nice surprise and now I have to figure it out and make some for gifts!! thanks for the idea! I also owe you some for postage so I will get that in the mail to you right away. I think the biggest problem was in not knowing how much the squares in return were going to weigh because once you have more than a pound it starts getting rated as to what part of the country you are sending to.
Thanks for doing a great job!!

You are all welcome! It was hard work - but fun too!

Beth - don't worry about the postage. The lady that waited on me at the Post Office is a quilter also. She said next time get everyone to use the flat rate envelopes. You can get a lot stuffed into them.

Have fun with the pattern. I didn't see any copyright on it so I thought everyone would like something simple and easy to make for Christmas gifts. I think they would look great if you alternate solid colors with the florals. I think those panels that you can get, like the rose panel that I made a quilt out of. If you fuzzy cut those panels and use them for the bottom square it would look really nice. I have a butterfly panel I might try that on.
