BYCville Town Quilt Block Swap SIGNUPS CLOSED

Miss P I was going to do a roo but can do a hen so go ahead and do the roo. The patterns I got are pretty quick and simple and it doesn't matter to me at all.


I am doing a block by Margaret Rolfe it is in her book Patchwork Quilts to make for children. There is a quilt in there that is a whole farm quilt and is out of this world my sister did it for my son when he was young. So I stole her book and am making a chicken out of there they have the hen the rooster and the chicks. My sister says they are easy and I will brain her with her own book if they aren't.


I am really excited about this swap heck I am excited about all of these swaps LOL. I have to sweep and scrub and then play with the 5 out of 10 pups I have left (man that playing with the pups is such hard work). Then I am going to dig out my tubs of fabric and start looking to see what will work and what I will have to buy. I will try to find a pic of the patterns in this book if I can't I will try to take a picture of them.
 
Only 5 spots left!!!! Yay!! I'm excited!!! I think I am going to try and do one of the schoolhouse blocks just to see how its gonna look.

COme on folks!!! The spots will go quilckly so don't wait to long.

This is going to be an awesome quilt! If you are thinking about signing up, then you better hurry. There's not many spots left.

Amy I am so happy for you and DH about your "Buying the Farm" I am sure that it will be an awesome adventure for all involved. I sure wish I could come across something like that for myself.

I am still looking though, did you get the package I sent you yet? I threw a little something extra in there for you. I know Skand and 1Much got theirs yestereday.
 
Well, the EASY part on my first real one is done..the cutting it out part, lol!!! Now I have to figure out how NOT to ruin it by sewing it together!!!! "Google is my friend" for applique techniques, lol!!! Wish me luck, and hope it's this cute after I sew it!!!

AHHHHHHHHHHHHHH, found this magic stuff called "stitch witchery", fusible interfacing...very cool!!! Then I can embroider around the edges, very cool..and easy whooo hooo, so glad I don't have to ruin my cut out pieces!! Guess I will wait until my interfacing comes in before I cut anymore though...means I can work with my yarn today instead
