Hi everyone!

July's Block To Alex

My block to Alex. I hope she likes it.

August Already?

Us Aussies are shivering out little butts off as we face what I've always believed to be the coldest month of the year!  Great weather for quilting though!

We've had TWO new member enquiries so as soon as they confirm membership, I'll be sending out the partners for August.

I'm still having issues with my nose so please bear with me.  Hope to have it all sorted this week.

July blocks

block from Leena

block going to Leena

My partner for July was Leena from group 1, my original partner went MIA, so the lovely Leena graciously made a beautiful block for me and I have made a spool block for her.
It will be in the mail tomorrow, I hope she likes it. You can see it in full on my blog

New Member and Randomness...

Hi all

I apologise for any difficulties in tracking me down these past few months.  I've never had so much sickness in such a period in my life!

Finally after several different types of antibiotics my nose is better and I can concentrate on crafting something nicer than colonies of bacteria.  blech!

On a more exciting note, please join me in welcoming Michell from New Zealand who joined us this month!

I'll fix up lists etc soon.  I know the blog needs a bit of tidying up.

If your personal blogs are not listed in the sidebar, please let me know and I'll add them...also some people are having problems posting on this blog or never received their invitiations so if this includes you please let me know about this as well.

Sometimes deleting and re-sending the invite is all it takes to fix the problem.

Hopefully I'll be back in full force with my crafty mojo blazing soon...as soon as I finish the last of these toxic antibiotics (apparently they kill anthrax...who knew??!!).

Still Alive!

Hi Everyone

Sorry I haven't been around much.  I had my nose and sinus surgery about 3.5 weeks ago and all was going well for a while but now I have a postoperative infection which doesn't seem to be responding to the antibiotics!!

I haven't forgotten about you all,  I'll email swap partners for July sometime today and catch up on my emails.

It worked this time

Here is the block I received from Donna.  Isn't it gorgeous.

Block swap completed

Hi all,

Thanks so much Donna.

June Partners and update

Hi swappers

I'm in the process of sending you your partner details for June.

It's taken a few days longer than I expected since we've had issues with a couple of members and I've needed to re-arrange partners.

Please let me know if you don't receive an email in the next 24 hours.

I've been a bit MIA again of late for which I apologize but I got secondary pneumonia because of my whooping cough.

I'm going into hospital on Tues (7th June) to get my nose and sinuses fixed which should improve my health enormously in the long run.  I'll (hopefully) have computer access and will post updates on my personal blog.

Please contact your partners once you get their details and confirm the addresses and block preferences are all up-to-date.

Alex THANK YOU for the beautiful blocks that you have made after the Toad in the Puddle has been lost in the mail.
