Using alternate blocks with the Halloween blocks is a great idea. I can get all 3 done much quicker. Too bad the next swap and lotto won't work. lol. One too large and one too small. But with my scraps I could do "spider-web" blocks of some sort. Great idea.

Joanne, I think it is too! I'm thinking of doing log cabin blocks, one side all black and the other all Halloween prints and maybe all orange and the other side Halloween prints and maybe one that's all black one side and the other all orange, that's what I'm thinking for my 3 LOL but I still tell ya all I might just be selfish and keep them all for me, just me and only me bwahahahaha!

MaryZ- that is a great idea, I will have to think about that.

I am getting excited to see all the blocks in person.
Tina you are doing a great job hosting.

10 more days.. are the last two sets on their way yet?

you are a great hostess Tina...

[gershwin64]

Vinae and Chriss, Thank you ) and Thank you for your help throughout ) I've probably asked a million questions )

Still waiting for the last 2 sets to be mailed. Ladies please allow mailing time and just a heads up we're having flooding in our state so it may take an extra couple of days to reach me so please mail early enough, I would say mailing this Friday, the 19th with Flat Rate Priority might be cutting it too close. Just wanted to let you know.

Tina , we've been watching news on flooding in NM and AZ. Bill's DS and DBIL are on motorcycles touring there. They are NOT amused by your weather!

I thought I read that the last two people had finished their blocks so there should no problem receiving them in time and then a big YAY! will be heard about Spookyland as we all get our blocks back to us. I am still hoping to be able to get this terrific quilt together in early October for Halloween decor through the month! All these blocks are too great to let them sit until next year! Hope the post office has boats!

Stopped off at my LQS and got some halloween prints to make some alternate blocks - will start on them tomorrow.

Tina, don't float away! More rain is expected and will get to me tonight and tomorrow.

Maryz, yep it's pretty bad around here, roads totally gone and right now we're under a Flood advisery. The sky is very dark! We lost electricty this morning from the weather right here on our road, they had it fixed in about 2 hours. When we have no electric we have nothing; water, heat/AC/swamper etc because we have well water, we just sit and do nothin honey LOL

I'm just hoping the last 2 sets make it here on time with all this weird weather we're having. We need the rain really badly but I hate to see the damage like this to road, homes, vehicles etc.. And yeppers they are too cute to wait till next year, just wait till you all see them! Oh Gosh you're gonna love em! )

Jana, it might be headed your way if NM leaves any liquid in them there clouds LOL I'm watching it come right up from Mexico as I type, it looks like it's swallowing things up, the mountains are gone now.

Tina, I am sure the last two have been sent already, I think I remember reading that every one had finished.

you really didn't ask too many questions, in fact I think you should try to do a swap for each holiday, it would be fun.. wonder how many you can fit in to the next year? I dare you to try.
