Piece of Cake - Jan 23rd - Andrea (dragonflyUSC)

Hi! Just starting a thread for everyone in the Piece of Cake group to post their messages to Andrea about sending their blocks and for Andrea to post about receiving her blocks. All blocks should be received by Andrea's birthday. If for some reason you are unable to do this, you must email Andrea and Jeanne(or myself) and explain why.

    Andrea, I know it's early but I'm going to mail your block on Monday. I made it today and am afraid if I don't send it now I'll forget to do it closer to your birthday! (Yes, I really am that disorganized.)

    Hi guys,

    Kate and Kay, your blocks both arrived safely! I got Kate's right before I left for Christmas so I was able to show it off to my mom (sandlapper_rose). Kay's showed up sometime last week. I kept putting off posting so I could take a picture but it appears to have disappeared into the post-Christmas mess. I'll keep looking at post a picture of them sometime soon! They're both beautiful and will work great for what I want to do with them.

    Thanks so much,
    Andrea

    Andrea,
    I mailed your block on Friday, so it should arrive early next week.

    Teresa, your block got here on Saturday so that was super fast! I guess I shouldn't be too surprised considering it didn't have very far to go. :) Thank you, it's lovely!

    Andrea, I took your block to the post office this morning, before our snowstorm arrives from the South~ which you all could have kept!

    Andrea, Cut the fabric yesterday and plan to piece it up tomorrow. Worked on baby quilt today. We are expecting our first grandson any day. Hopefully we will have some news tomorrow. You will have your block by your birthday.

    My block for Andrea has been completed also... waiting for the ice, etc. to be gone before I head to the post office. With our cold temperatures in SC, it has been a long wait. Tomorrow will be the 4th day that the public schools are closed. The children will be unhappy when those extra make up days get added to the school year - teachers, too, I'm sure.
    (Many of you know, she is my daughter so I have a bit more shopping to do in order to get her "birthday package" together!)

    Marsha and Virginia, your blocks are here! I'm having so much fun seeing how everyone put them together.

    Everyone's done a great job on the colors. Several of you have said that you really liked the block. I hope that means it was a "piece of cake" to put together!

    Work is very stressful for me right now so I really enjoy getting a block in the mail every couple of days. Thanks again, everyone!

    It is so enjoyable sewing BD blocks that go together nicely and quickly~but it is so much more fun to receive them!!!
    heehee - YES, it was a piece of cake to put together:)

    I am happy to hear it is allowing some "special me" time to beak up the stress!

    Darlene, congratulations on your new grandson. I'll bet he is cute as can be! I hope he and his mother are doing great.

    I managed to successfully guess which of the very pink presents sandlapper_rose sent me was my block and can now accurately report that I received it. :) I really like the black and red fabric you used on the sides!

    Darlene, no worries! I'm heading out of town on Wednesday for my sister's baby shower so I know how distracting babies can be. :)
