Mine came today as well. Thank you so very much. I had such fun going through the alphabet....the plan is to make up a few of these over the next 2 - 3 years and set them aside for when they are needed. I'd love to see a thread with pictures of alphabet quilts made from previous swaps...hint,hint

Mine came today too!! and of 26 fabrics, the only one I had seen was mine variety is great!! Now...to make something of them, this is my 3rd swap..time to get productive, well after the signature blocks, challenge quilt and dressing a doll for Salvation Army, all due in Sept!!
I had fun opening yours pkg's when they arrived and seeing different fabric for the letters!! A lot of unusual ones, that's for sure!
I'll start a new thread asking everyone to show us their 'ABC' quilts. I have several pic's of the ones I made that I'll post, most of which I've already donated!

Mine were in today's mail. What a great job everyone did with coming up with some awesome fabrics. I almost ready to start mine. Thank you for hosting this swap. I have enjoyed your swaps.
My daughter said the pkg arrived -- so glad -- can't wait to see the squares when I come to the states next month. Your quilt pictures, Lynne, are terrific! On the one set at an angle and the one that has the squares individually sashed -- did you use solids or tonals? I may shamelessly copy, if you don't mind. Many thanks to all who swapped -- and especially our hostess!
I got mine days ago and just haven't gotten here to tell you yet. I LOVED this swap. Great variety! Thank you so much Lynne for doing this. Looking forward to the next one Just make sure to remind me, as you know I am up to my neck in pottery, lol Thanks Ladies for a great swap!
Mine are here! We were away a couple weeks, so I'm not sure when they came. They made for a nice "homecoming" and I thank everyone, especially our hostess.
sewlove2quilt, please don't feel any responsibility about my return package if it doesn't show up. I know that you did your part. And I did not provide for delivery confirmation. Hopefully, it will get here but if not, I'll just wait for another swap to get some more ABC squares.
MaryLou, yes, I do feel bad that you haven't rec'd them yet....there was enough postage on them so don't really know what happened. Guess it really pays to have DC #'s...we could track it if ya did!

I've been keeping a close watch on the mailbox but haven't gotten my squares yet. However, I did put together two sets of ABC squares this week and still have four more sets in my stash. I didn't realize I had so many!
The postal service must be trying to teach me patience! The packages were sent back on the 15th. Today is the 29th and mine have finally arrived. They only had to go from MI to IL but it took two full weeks. The envelope is pretty wrinkled but not torn so no damage to the squares.
There are several things pictured in the fabrics that are different from what we've had in other swaps. Love all of them.
They must've hopped a ride on 1 of the freighters touring the great lakes or something...lol!!! Glad they finally arrived and you like all the neat fabrics!
Can you share pic's of the quilts you put together? [I started a separate thread 'I'll show you mine if you show us yours']This message has been edited. Last edited by: sewlove2quilt,
