Oh, I am so happy!!!! I received my strips about a week ago but I have not had time to post a BIG thank you!!!! They are wonderful!!!. It will be a little while before I will be able to dig into them and start building. I am working on my "Waves of Friendship" quilt from the SoTTT's HST exchange. I am thinking I am going to make Edyta's Farmhouse Quilt and call it "A House Built on Friendship". Thank you so much for the treasure!!!! Each one of you will have a special place in my home. It is going to be so fun to see what we all make with our strips. Wishing you all a safe and wonderful Memorial Day!!!

glad to have been of help

A big thank you to Lotti,for helping get back in touch with so many wonderful new friends. My computer crashed. My new computer doesn't have all my contacts so I felt lost looking for this forum. Lotti, came to my recuse. It feels so good to see your lovely faces. I haven't received my package yet but I'll check my mail tomorrow. I just wanted all of you to know that I missed you. Hugs...Doreen

Ah my Stripper Sisters -

My strips showed up last Saturday, but we had left town at 6:30 am that day (I KNEW those strips would be there!!) so I did not get them until today. What can I say? They are SOoooooo.... beautiful! Thank you, thank you, thank you, Sensational Strippers, and especially - Thank You to Barb! You made it seem so easy for all of us!

Well I did all of my figuring and cut 2 1/2 " and 3 1/2" pieces for days, then I separated them so the colors are fully separated and all of the pieces are counted. Now I just went back to my pattern and realized that I now have enough pieces for several king size quilts. Oh well better too many than too few I say! Sewing starts tomorrow.

Received my strips the other day. Went through and looked at all the beautiful colors and designs I haven't seen before. Thank you Barb for all your time and effort put into this exhange and thank you to all who sent in strips - they are beautiful. I didn't even think to count them til I saw a post of shortage. I counted mine to make suree i didn't receive more than 200. I am happy to say, Barb was right on - 200 exactly. Great job. Didn't decide which design to make yet, but all good things take time.
Hope everyone has a great day, Lori

Hello Laura in Massachusetts - I haven't gotten mine yet either here in rainy Hamburg, NY! Hopefully they will come any day now as I can't wait to see them.

I received mine yesterday. They are wonderful! Thank you so much. Janis

I was so excited and happy with what I got, I didn't think to count them. When next I have time and if I have extra I will send them to you Barb. Thank you for your work and making my day joyful.

Marta,

Sorry about that - I'll send you 10 more

My strips arrived today as we were leaving the house. I had to set them aside until I got back home. Then supper, etc. I finally took them to my sewing room about 9:30 last night. I was up until 1:00 am playing with the strips. They are just beautiful. Barb, thank you so much for all you have done. And thanks to any helpers you had.

Oh a log cabin - I've always wanted to make one. Maybe I won't be doing pineapples after all. Thank you all again for my lovelys.

My strips came yesterday and it was like my birthday a few months early. Wow, what lovely colors, Thank you each and every one. Barb thanks for sorting. Now the fun will begin with making an international log cabin, my favorite quilt.
