First quilt block swap 2016

[katsdar]

I have blues galore. I even have enough creams, although I had to scrounge.

My problem was with the "men's" fabrics. I normally call those "ugly" and when I get those, they become quilt backs for charity so I don't have to look at them. Between my mother and myself, we had a hard time finding enough ugly, I mean, men's fabrics for the swap. But, my swap blocks are done now and will get in the mail in the next few days.

That's funny, I have not even started looking.

Well here she is, a big girl!!!!


yes I'm rearranging my room again and I had to put her on the far wall due to the type of plug

This old farm house went through some changes with the past owners, see the plug on the wall up high, this was at one time part of the kitchen, and the wall sockets are counter high, and anyway on the back wall they put in new plugs down low for in a room, and left the high plugs which are still working. so the high plug didn't have a ground so the change of quilter in the room.

Wow! katsdar how wonderful.. I hope you could just turn it, not have to take it apart to changes sides of the room. I bet you are so ready to get something quilted on that beauty.

I didn't have to take it apart and I can't remember who swapped it was a while ago, but we did a green and white block anyway I did extra and I have the top big enough for our bed and that is as far as I got with it cause I was not going to try to finish it on a sewing machine and I didn't want to send it to be quilted, soooooo now I can finish it!!! Now I have only ever really did lap quilts or a bit bigger lap quilts I'm so ready to do something bigger!!! and we did a rose and sage block and now I can finish that one too, course I have many more that I can do too. yep I'm excited. No I have not gotten my embroidery machine yet, it's coming some day. have this to play with for now

Wow Kat, looks fantastic! Looking forward to all the wonderful work you will be doing. But.... Don't you think it's a bit over the top for a rug mug?
