I spent ALL DAY stuffing envelopes. I had quilt blocks strewn all over the floor of my art room so that I could see them all, then tip-toed through and stuck them to my flannel wall. Time flew! When I was ready for a lunch/potty break it was already 4:00 PM and I started about noon!
Every set is different and just awesome! The combinations were endless and tons of fun to sort through.
So, all you swappers, I’m taking my laundry basket to the post office on Monday. That means your blocks will be in your very own mail box late next week!

Wow! What a monumental task, you did it with such good grace, too. Thanks so much for this wonderful project. I learned a lot as a new quilter and was so inspired by the work of others. I am jumping up and down in anticipation of my package. Aren’t the blocks amazing??? Thank you again and again.

Wow! Amazing and beautiful! I hope to participate next time you do this, I know I’m too late now. I own a fabric shop, full of vintage reproductions, and I will have the line of Denyse’s fabrics. This is such a great idea!!!

WOW! i received mine the other day, and they work so well together, all I need to do is find the appropriate sash material and I have myself a quilt top! Thanks so much, Jess, can’t wait to see what you do with yours–thanks for keeping one of mine and giving me one of yours! I love all of them…

Jess! I love my set, which I see in one of these photos, and I thrill to see my blocks joining some of the other sets. May I borrow a couple of these shots? Thanks for everything!
