4th of July swap--SPOILERS UP

Remember when Cathy used to do these theme swaps? Well I was thinking --it might be nice to do another, since it's been awhile.
I was thinking-- there might be time for a 4th of July swap.

If you are interested, sign up and pick one of the following letters (or number as the case may be) It will take 9 of us to play.

4--Lynn--received
t--Holly--done
h--Cheryl M--received
o---Paula--received
f--Honey--received
J--Deb B--received
u--Hope--received
l--Elizabeth--received
y--Jenni-- received

Make 9 with the letter as inspiration, (please be sure to add it to your finished pieces) and send to me so I receive by June 28th. You will have them back by July 3rd.
I am playing-- so we only need 8 more to play-- and we need to do them quickly. Please--only sign up if you can meet this deadline, as I do not want to disappoint anyone.

Anyone interested?

Well I guess I could have been a bit more specific. These are ATC's and made in the same vein as Cathy's groupings. In other words, you make 9 the same using one of the letters, you have to tell me which one you want, so we cover all the letters, and send all nine to me. I will swap around and you will receive 9 back that spell out the "4th of July". Use the theme as your inspiration so we can make a display of them. For exxample-

4 ( could be 4 firecrackers, 4 flags, etc)
t-- could be " True blue" or "Tried and True" or trumpet; tradition, any thing you can think of which spurs the thought of this holiday or our nation
h-- Hot dogs
o--taken
f--taken
J--Jams & jellies , jamborie,
U---taken
L--taken
Y--yesterday (as in remembrance);
Get the idea? if not let me know.

Still need 4 players-- and I know some of these letters are not the easiest, but then again a dictionary is what I will use for ideas to take the last available letter--whatever that will be.
