153 - That's how many quilt blocks arrived in the mail yesterday. 112 were the disappearing 4 patch, and 41 more were donated 16-patches. I also received backing material and additional money for batting. You guys are amazing! We are going to make so many people warmer this winter!

Donald was excited to help with all the packages that were left outside our mailbox in this plastic bag . Even more blocks were in envelopes INSIDE my mailbox. Wow! I'm sure the mail carrier is curious about what is going on! |

112 12.5" disappearing 4-patches covers A LOT of floor space! I use this spot in the basement to sandwich large quilts. |

I'm excited to make some other donation quilts with these donated blocks. |

I managed to sew together most of one top last night. I had hoped to do more, but my husband's team had a scrimmage and we went out to support him. Of course, I went to THE WRONG UNIVERSITY! What a bonehead! Luckily, the two universities are only about 20 minutes apart. While watching the game , I made some progress embroidering my mini. For a tiny quilt, it sure is taking me longer than expected!
I wonder what today's mail call will look like?
