I don't even know how to begin to say thank you for all of the beautiful blocks that you created for me as a remembrance of our SoTTT exchange and the very generous monetary gift from so many of you. And to those of you who conspired to pull this off without me knowing about, Dawn Siden (Scoopie), Barbara Marcone (MakesGeese), Margo, Debbie Kendall and Rosemary Cousins, you did it!!!

I was totally blown away by all the wonderful blocks that I received from the United States, Provinces in Canada, Territories in Australia, and our other participating countries. The thought, time, effort and creativity put into each block was phenomenal. You have touched my heart and I will be forever grateful.

Rosemary, your presentation box was incredibly creative and surprisingly musical! You have a wonderful talent and are extremely generous and I sincerely thank you for that.

I had such a wonderful time at the TQS Dinner and I loved that I was able to meet so many of our SoTTT participants and other TQS members there, and also had a chance to meet even more of you at the TQS Meet & Greets. For those of you who were not able to see all the blocks, Dawn will be creating a Smilebox with pictures of these very special blocks and posting it on the TQS site, hopefully by the end of next week once she finally gets back to Montana and has a chance for some R&R. She put in such a tremendous effort on my behalf. In fact, I believe her efforts were right up there with the actual SoTTT exchange because she did so much to make it happen.

Now..do you want to know what I was able to purchase with your very generous gift? It was something I really, really wanted...the Accuquilt Go! Fabric Cutter along with a few dies, including the two Sarah Vedeler dies which can be used in the 2012 TQS BOM. I'm soooo excited and can't wait to start playing with it!

THANK YOU, THANK YOU, THANK YOU A MILLION TIMES OVER!!!!!
