lgc5564 - I have purchased some additional material to make squares for states not represented in the original list and some that are for special things to me... (pink Precious Moments for my two new baby nieces) I found some cute fabrics for some other states no one answered from - a black background with pokerchips & dice with Las Vegas printed in gold to represent Nevada; an old Hawwian shirt with a tropical print of palm trees and hybiscus says "Aloha"; a cute watermelon print for Mississippi ( the best watermelons in the world are grown on the LA/MS border near Bogalusa) Apples for Washington State - that kinda thing. Some are just things I like and am trying to justify working them in LOL...
It doesn't cost very much for a six inch strip off a bolt - although the lady will give you a starnge look. It gives me enough for me a square, my sister a square and a little left over. Look over the remmnants pile, they have had a few that I am going to "adapt"
Sunee - my Dad died two years ago after a devestating illness - my heart goes out to you because I truly understand how hard it is. If I had realised you were on the tree (still don't know which one on the tree....

) I would have sent you a card by now. If there is anything I can do, please let me know. Please read MY thread on this in Vent & Whine or OT (entitled Yoo Hoo...) they are a little gentler in requesting feedback. {{{{{suneedayze4u************

lgc5564, thank you!! I appreciate that.

littlebell, thank you

. How is the job thing going??? Any better??? I'll keep my fingers crossed for you.

Jolie Rouge, my name on the list is Judge. Feel free to write anytime

. I love getting letters. Angel writes periodically

. I am so sorry about your Dad. 2 yrs is not a very long time. I still dont really understand what went wrong with mine. He was smiling and joking the day he went into the hospital for a lung biopsy. He WALKED in on his own two legs. They thought it was cancer and it turned out to be scar tissue. The last thing he said that morning was "see you on the flip side #1". #1 was my nickname for being the first born. From that day it went down hill fast. He was in ICU 3 times and didnt make it out the 3rd time. The thought of trusting a doctor or hospital after that scares the hell out of me. Especially knowing my son has some medicals problems. Each time I take him to the doctor I feel like Im going to jump out of my skin. But I guess I have to trust someone. My envelopes will be all done by friday morning

. So they will go out no later then saturday morning. I really hope ya'll like them. Let me know when you get them. I see by some of the posts that some have gotten lost in the mail. So I want to make sure ya'll get them. HUGS
