    June 1st Quilt Block Exchange

    While we are waiting for sweet green blocks to arrive and assemble, lets discuss the next step in the quilting! How do you quilt your top, batting, and backing? What is a inexpensive alternative to the $400 wooden quilting frame? I am working on one for my school auction and am close to hand...

    June 1st Quilt Block Exchange

    That's too bad. I can say that is it was mailed parcel or "regular" post from there it can take several weeks to arrive. When I worked in International Admissions at the local university students would mail their application by what we call first class mail and it could take up to 2 months for...

    So glad they arrived! And that was fast! Sure glad I opted out of the priority mailed since it was just as fast as this one!

    June 1st Quilt Block Exchange

    Ladies, I mailed by blocks yesterday! I can't wait to see all the greens we've picked together in a quilt. I decided to make mine into a quilit for my niece's birthday in September. She love's the show on USA called "Psych" with the two detectives that are goofy, and she loves green. I though...

    Summer Quilt Block Swap-Due August 15th.

    I am so excited to have quilters from other countries in our swaps. I LOVE the thought of a quilt from around the world!! One questions, you mentioned it's blocks or chocies. Can I embroider on my block where it's from? Abby

    June 1st Quilt Block Exchange

    Good Morning! I just wanted to stop in and say I am still working on my blocks. I've got 5 done with all the commotion here in OK: weather, last week of school, and strep throat and torn shoulder tendon. I really don't know how to sit still on the couch and do nothing, which leads me into...

    Katsdar & Marty Do we have all the people we need or do I need to sew an extra set? I was waiting for our quilter here to let us know about her friend so they had a chance to join. Can you PM me to confirm or deny me making the a set so we have enough people? Thank you! Abby

    Welcome to our new quilters that signed up! I am glad to hear that family members are on the mend. We've gotten back to the full swing of school here, and farming this spring. We've had a mild winter her in OK compared to the previous few years. I fear that my husband and I will once again...

    ***OKIES in the BYC III ***

    Good Morning! I sure hope everyone made it safely through the storms last night. We watched the lightening crack across the clouds, but didn't get a lick of rain. Is tonight the Blanchard Auction or is the by-week? I need more laying hens and can't wait till the pullets come into season...

    June 1st Quilt Block Exchange

    HSTs! I guess I better practice with a few scraps to get the method down right before I make the official ones! I like the idea of the cut lines with the sewing lines 1/4in in. I also caught a glimpse of someone doing strips and then cutting. I'll have to research that one to since I like to...

    Hi all, I've not been on in a few. I'm sorry, this time of year is "crunch" where we start the countdown to the big end of year tests. I feel more stress this time of year than others, and I am cramming stuff down noggins and going over and over and over what I've been teaching for months now...
