I never thought of how difficult it would be to do the stops. Maybe you can figure out something, and I'd love to learn more about it. I saw that block on Amy's blog and knew you'd love that it was signed by Lizzy House. How awesome. You are getting some great blocks!

I cannot figure it out. Do you make a number of the same blocks and send to multiple people? How does a person get a month? I'm sure you've explained it somewhere, but a quilt bee 101 post would be interesting, at least to me!

I know what you mean about the heat. I live in Imperial Beach, south of San Diego. It's been around 90 here, and I'm less than a mile from the beach---with NO AC....sigh. I got 2 of the last 3 fans at Home Depot, after calling around to 5 other places. It's supposed to be winding down this week.
