Nine patches are everywhere! The kitchen table...along with the envelope, addressed, and a letter to each swapper...
On the kitchen counter........
On the dining room table.......and at last, ready to mail! Except for Nicolie, the last remaining person whose blocks are in the mail...I just need to put hers when they get here into each package, and they are off to the post office!
I had NO IDEA what I was getting into. I will just say to make a long story short, this was a huge deal to undertake...I really respect you swap mamma's out there who do this all the time. Hurrah for you!!
Have a great day, everyone!!
Julie

That's definitely a huge undertaking! We appreciate your hard work - thank you bunches, Julie.
It sure is a big undertaking--which is why you got so many gifts! I'm thrilled that these will soon be on their way. You are most appreciated, Julie!
That is a lot of work, to be the person who has to receive and send out the packages. There are going to be a lot of beautiful quilts made from them.
