Just wanted to let Deana, Kristin, and Pat know that I mailed your blocks this morning and to expect a Saturday delivery!

All Wrapped Up

The last of the Double Nines showed up today with Laurina’s block all the way from New Zealand.  Thank you for the block and card.  That beach looks wonderful!  I’ve never been to that part of the world, hopefully someday.  🙂  Thanks also to Sophie.  Your block arrived earlier in the week.
