Actually the 4 block is the easiest, just ask skand.

You pick the style and the color, the receiver is jsut saying what colors they like. Yes, only 1 square a month, if you choose to send more, that's fine, but don't get upset if you only receive one. And as for joining, welcome aboard, just send me your addy in a PM please

Just wash the fabric, iron, sew, iron and mail.

the batting only goes between the layers once all the blocks are put together.

Wildsky!! That's absolutely gorgeous!!!

Everyone else!! My blocks will not be THAT nice, I'm decent, and careful, but they won't be THAT nice!! Just warning you all!!

redhen? when you get to my name... I promise to enjoy anything you send, in any colors, and in any pattern. I'll find a way to put it to good use no matter what and I'll brag on it cause one of my BYC friends made it for me!!

I can't speak for anyone else, but the colors I listed are suggestions or a preference, not a requirement!

 

[skand]

Cotton... what about flannel? or is that more of a backing kind of material?

 

[redhen]

okay!..sounds good!..i'll think about my colors i would prefer and let you know..thanks!...

...AND....i'll make Mike a special square also...i KNOW he would cherish it forever!...

Take a needle and thread and carefully hand stitch the seam, just fold your seam allowances under and press and stitch.

Suddenly Chuck has gotten a nak for sewing or either he is getting tips from his wife.

A) I have no wife, I can't have a wife.

B) My mother taught me how to sew as a child.

C) What Wild describe reminded me of a pair of trousers that they seat had been ripped out of and needed to be fixed.

D) back to my usual place now
