Just checking in. Ive received a few blocks form folks and they are so nice.
12 blocks is all we are doing. We only had 12 to sign up. If you want to do more, that is fine....you could use them to make pillow squares to match your quilt.
Oh, I received some blocks in the mail today! They are beautiful. I cant remember who did them. I was driving down the road while I was opening them. Yea, I know, not safe, but I couldnt wait to get them home. When I finally got home, I had to unload groceries and cook dinner. Ill post a pic of...
Hey guys, Im still here. Pushing the date back is ok with me. This is for everyone, not just me. I dont want it to drag out forever, but if someone needs more time, then that is fine.
My internet has been spradic lately and my only alternative is my iphone. Well, its super hard to read the...
Hey Yall...checking in. I know Ive kinda disappeared. Life has just been plain busy. Ive not even started on my blocks. I plan to this weekend though. I HAVE to get it done. End of June if fine with me. Lets just say to try your best to get them to me before July 1. Then I can swap them up and...
I received my blocks today. Oh, Im so excited. Cant wait to see how they will go together. I think Im going to put some sashing in between my blocks. Ill lay it out and play with it and see how it looks.
Ginbart, it was me that owes you the shipping. I will PP it back to you in just a few...
Yay! We are filling up fast. I went ahead and reserved a spot for ginbart as she had expressed interest in it before. I know she is having computer issues now. When she gets back online, she can pick a block or if she declines, we can take her name out.
Im glad weve all decided to stick with...
We werent specifically doing them, but I think it will be fun. If you can choose a star block that would be great...if not, its ok too. Ive got you added to the list, just waiting for your block choice. :)
I do love the star theme. That would be really cool! I need to choose one now. Let me go looksie. Im waiting on my iron to heat up. Ive got to sew some bloomers tonight for pictures tomorrow. I have no motivation tonight.
Glad to hear you didn't go to jail. I'm glad it all worked out. Does sound like they are looking for clients. Heckuva way to fish for them. I started a new thread regarding a new block swap.
I think purples would be great.
Im adding request of blocks to the second post. Please check to make sure they are correct as I add them.
Mid to late June sounds good to me also. That is 3 months +/- to complete the blocks. Ample time in my opinion.
List of Participants and the block they have chosen:
Balefire - Starflower
Marty1876 - Friendship Star
ScrappyChick - Solomon's Star
m.kitchengirl - Sawtooth Star
nheimberg - Another Star
GrannysRoost - Star & Pinwheel
Abbysnormal - Hunters Star
Shamblescross - Cowboy Star
Cluckin'Along - Amish...
Here is my idea....Lets work on these this summer and get them ready for Fall. My proposition is to do a fall colored quilt. (oranges, reds, browns, darker yellows, greens, etc). We each pick our own block. We will make the number of blocks according to how many sign up. Minimum 12, maybe up...
I will start a new thread regarding the next block swap. Im not in a rush to get everyone going, but I will post my ideas and we can brainstorm as a group and come up with something.
Ginbart, hang in there. Just do what they ask. I thnk DFCS has way too much power in my opinion. We were "investigated" at the beginning of the school year because my son had a bruise on his arm! I mean really, he is 6, and has a 4 year old sister and they climb and wrestle on everything and...
Ugh. Can I send you sime money via Paypal to pay for shipping? I am so sorry.
How many more do you have left to receive? I can't wait to see them all put together.
