I still HOPE you ALL get a chance to PIECE your Christmas Quilts as soon as you can. These blocks are way to FABulous to keep in a box!!!
********************************************************************
With the holidays coming up and life happenings getting in the way of sewing time my heart has been telling me to change the FQ Winners to make it FAIR FOR EVERYONE and even though I know I could trust you NOT to open your packages until Jacquie received hers I simply just can't do that to you - I am sew not into TORTURE!!!
I will put everyone's name in a BIG CHRISTMAS BAG and have "The Hand of the Picker" (DH this time) in the dark with 2 blindfolds on choose 3 winners (I want it to be legal so I can sleep at night)!!!!! This way you can open your packages when you receive them and sew your blocks when the time allows.
THANK YOU ALL for one of the best HUGE SUCCESSFUL Christmas Block Swap I have ever hosted. It went way beyond anything I could have dreamed of. Sew much Love in every stitch. You are a great group of Pals and I am blessed to have you in my home everyday!!! HUGE HUGS and BLESSINGS to you ALL!!!!
To those Pals that were not in the Swap - See you next year around June. Be thinking about what Christmas Block you would make so you don't miss it!!!!
