    :oops:
    I have never made a signature strip or block before how do you make one? What size fabric, and so on.

    Karie is suggesting a strip of fabric, 3.5" x 5.5", signed. then Justeena can join the strips and add it to the quilt, back or front.

    BTW, Schnookie, cute avatar!

    I'm in. Any white or ? What info? Screen name, real name and location would be good. Located in middle along the 5.5 length? (I'd draw a picture but don't have a scanner :() Let us know and we're on it! I'm excited!

    Ok let me know what you think... I say a light or med color fabric 5.5 x 3.5. This way it will still be fun colors. Put your Screen name, Real name and location on it. For those of you that want to.

    Thanks Quilt Mom, that is Jimi my 10 year old Airedale, when he was a puppy. I just love my fur baby!

    I am in also. I had my package ready to mail but haven't had a car to take it to the post...so I will make one 3.5 x 5.5 and stick it in and get it to the post by Friday. Oh I cannot wait to see what she does with this all...so much fun!

    Just to be clear, the key board border when sewn together will be 5" wide, right?
