Feeling stupid this morning, what is PM? (private message)/ if so how do I do that? What is your email address?

Please add me in your database and let me know where to send my squares. I'm excited about the prospect, I've never done anything like this before. How much fabric do I buy to cut into 40 " squares?

I had to ask too. Click on the persons username and a new window will pop up that shows a "pm" button. Click on that button and you can write your private message.

Hi Ardis...you will probably need about a yard of 3 differnt fabrics (if they are an all over print or more if you have a print that you need to center with a fussy cut). To PM me just click on sdparent and then click PM for private message. I will send you my information right now. I am excited too. Happy quilting!

What works well to "audition" a print - cut out a 5 inch square of template plastic - and then tape the edges with 1/4 inch tape (or ink in 1/4 inch)- that way one can see exactly what will show after the square is sewn

Last night I was talking with one of the members in this swap, she lives near me and would like to take our I Spy swap squares to make up quilts to donate to our local Angels & Elves program. This is a program that helps families provide for their children at Christmas. Please join maybe you can makes ones to donate to your local program. Let's make a child's christmas morning a bright & fun one.

How many participants do you have? .....and what was the final decision on the mail by date?

Oh heck - I'm in. I think I'd rather make the I SPY quilt a little bigger.

Need addy please.
