hahaha I do have an idea now... muhahahaaaaa, thanx gals!

Actually, I was just wondring cause I got some flannel the other day at the store to play with ,its pink with panda bears on it, before all this even, and honestly, I didnt know if I could do that with it. As in, wasnt sure if it's supposed to go on the back or if you can use it on the front also. lol

You can have a go at a rag quilt with that. there are instructions around on the web, a rag quilt is very easy, and you'd get lots of sewing straight lines!

ooh..wonder if i can make a YO-YO block?...you know..maybe sew together enough of the little quilt yo-yo's to make a 12 inch block....but...there is usually a tiny space showing in between each yo-yo..so...it might not look right on a regualr quilt that will have a backing on it...umm..now..you have me thinking of things to make...

OOOo can we all put our names somehow on the piece.. at least on the ones I get!!!
I demand! that you put your name and screen name on my block!!!!!

Either sew a tag on it or write it with a fabric marker.. just get it permanatly attached to the outside of it. lol
There. now Im being picky!

I had this same thought, but didn't know if anyone would want to do this.
I was thinkin gin the way of tose personalized sew-on tags with your name one it would be cool, but I would leave that up to the sender and let that be their choice.

But where would you put the tag, if its on the back you won't see it when you finish a quilt. If you put it on the front it may not look right,
