    Goodness Sara, You are well ahead of the game. I am still at the thinking stage.

    hi Terri, would be great if you could play, is there no way (Thinking hard here) This is going for 12 months, surely you could get in quite a few rounds. Even if at one point we hung on to your quilt until you were settled then sent it to your new address for when you could start again. Heck I donīt know it would be so good.

    Ok, I'm going to bite the bullet and play. I'll keep a machine back and have that shipped at the last moment. Will have to keep my mat and cutter too. No problem....we have something like 1000 pounds for our express shipment.
    Only thing I ask....I am willing to ship international, but would feel ALOT better if someone sending to me was stateside.

    I can work out the details with whoever is sending to me when the time comes for my move.

    So....what ya think? Am I throwing a wrench in or do you think we can do this?

    Gotcha!!!! And boy I'm glad!! My sleeve and shirt tail was getting nastyyyyy! I think we'll be able to work it out with no big problem. If you need to skip a round or so...we can have a temporary stand in for you so the rounds stay within the right timing for mailing. When you get settled, we'll start mailing to you again. How does that sound?

    I've got all your info and listed it except a phone and I have that somewhere....could you send it again please?

    I read the ideas of adding little somethings to the packages and I love the idea...please think about the additional weight that you might be adding though and just use something very light. Postcards are great (but I live in a tiny place and its famous for.........nothing :roll: ) And, there is nowhere here to get postcards...but I'll come up with something close enough :wink:

    Please don't include lots of extra center fabric if it is something that others will be able to find locally...it will cost too much to send it along. I'm not trying to throw a monkey wrench in the fun...really.... :D I just want to make sure that everyone can afford to play because the more that play, the more beautiful quilt pics we get to drool over!!:lol: :lol:

I was thinking of a world globe with the scales of justice inside...but I'm just not that creative or advanced to make it! Help Mr. Wizard!!
    I think you might be able to come up with something if you google images of scales of justice, etc. Just set it to view clip art and you will find all kinds of pictures that you can choose from. You can trace them for applique. Oh...I just thought..I'm going to go look on the shophop site for you. You might want to start a thread here on the board about specfic fabric you are looking for...some of these ladies on the board are real fabric hounds!!! They can sniff out what you are looking or if it exists!!! :lol:

    On the present IRR (just about to finish) I wanted to make a special label and did think of flags for all the countries/states in my Group. However I didnīt, but there is another idea for you to think about.

    Print the small flags from your printer and then copy onto fabric, neat
