On the plus side... mail offically starts again on Tuesday!

Mish, I love your row. Will be lots of fun to work on. Make sure to send instructions if you want anything special. I need to get busy and figure out a label.
Ripped, I'm so sorry to hear about your water problem. Hope you are able to get it fixed and back to sewing soon. I'm really glad to hear your postal workers are going back to work so I can now get my IRR quilt in the mail to Canada and we'll be able to get this one started. Just think - only two more weeks to mailing. |
only 2 more weeks to finish alot of things!... looks like i'm making a trip to my parents to sew!
|
I guess I better get busy. Still don't know what I am doing. Still lots of time. lol
|
Well, gals, we're down to 10 days to mailing and I'm getting excited about getting going on these. Hope everyone is having fun deciding what they want to do.
Mish, I'm ready for yours any time you want to mail it. |
My blocks are in the "curing" process I have to leave them for 3 - 5 days . I used Paintstiks to try something different.
|
Can't wait to see what you've come up. Sounds neat.

Material Girl, I got your row today. I am working on mine tonight. I am doing thirties fabrics and churndash. I would like to have very traditional blocks on this one. will post pictures soon. Gramakitten/kathi
The one on the right is my row. the one on the left will be my signature blocks. hope you like them. I do. |
ROS, Are there any special "rules" that I should know before mailing to you? I have never sent to Canada. I remember in one swap that you need to put fabric on the label not quilt blocks. Let me know I will be ready to mail by Tuesday.

I haven't worked much with the 30's fabrics, so that will be an interesting one for me to work on. I love your churn dash blocks. Are those 6" blocks? They look a lot bigger than that on my computer.

here are my blocks. I haven't gotten them together yet as they are still in the curing process but they are almost ready to be heat set. My theme this time is winter. If i had my swap blocks back I'd do halloween but winter will work just as well. I hope you guys like them.
All 4 blocks [ATTACH=CONFIG]224987[/ATTACH] close up of the 2 blocks [ATTACH=CONFIG]224988[/ATTACH] |
Beautiful!!
|
It is really 6" but because they are not an even ninepatch they look bigger. Thanks for the info ROS. I will try to remember all of it. Kathi
|
ROS did you paint the snokflakes on the other 2 square? Nice!!
|
Those are gorgeous, ROS. That will be a fun one to work on.
|
That is the paintstiks. There is a stencil for the snowflakes. It's really quite easy.
|
Never heard of them before...Just looked them up and you are so mean!!! I don't need to have another habit...LOL
|
Beautiful,can't wait to get a close up look at them.
|
Did you see the stencil of the christmas lights? I have that one too and I did colour that one as well... I think that one is my favourite but I have Judy's round so I can't add them to her top. not to worry I'll figure something out.
I have a sashing for between the 4 rows before the rounds start that is the fabric that the snowflakes are made out of. It should not make me square anymore! |
Ripped I mailed my row to you today. I think that I remembered all that you told me. Kathi/Gramakitten
|
Shaysmema, my row is finally on it's way to you. Got it in the mail today. Can't wait to get Mish's.
Hope everyone is ready to get them in the mail and get started. |
Sounds good Gramakitten. I'll let you know when I get it so we can time the length. I'll be sending mine out soon... I just have to do a label.

Sandy I finished your second row last night. ROS can I mail it to you early ? I'm not sure how long it will take. But I think that as I type and think that I will wait to see if everything goes well with the one I just sent you. OK? I will try to post pictures soon. Kathi
|

Kathi, those are adorable. I love it.
|
Yes,I agree they are adorable,I haven't received any ones yet,have they been mailed. its okay if they haven't,just curious

Mish, I got your row last week. As I expected, it is every prettier in person than what showed up on the computer, and that was gorgeous. I was sooooo busy last week putting together hubby's 70th birthday party (it was last Friday, the 15th and we had so much fun). All our kids came up with our grandkids. By the time they left on Sunday, we were absolutely exhausted, but I was so glad to have them here for awhile. It was the first time we had all been together in about 7 or 8 years. I am hoping to get some sewing time in tomorrow.
|
Glad you guys were all able to get together and have a Wonderful time. Tell your DH "Happy Birthday". And Thank You for the compliment. I can't remember which blue I used because I'm making a wallhanging for my bedroom so that it will match the quilt.
