No problem Elle. You have a wedding to plan. I didn't want to hijack another thread and I'm impatiently waiting for my next rounds.
Warning to all of you involved. lol It is terrible waiting for the next round to come and then having to send them off. Never to see them again. Worse than sending a child off to college. At least children come home. I have actually thought that if I am in the part of the country of some of the quilts I have worked on I would love to drop in and visit them.

An option might be to say that the mailing deadline for the centres is Oct. 15th, but those who have already finished theirs can send them any time after Oct.1st.

Ages and ages ago I posted that I was thinking of doing this. Well, not ages and ages, but pages and pages! Wow, it's been rolling around in my head & I'd not kept up with postings. It took a while to go through them all, even though I was just skimming!
I've sent my pm w/ my info and am hoping there is still room in an international, although I'm okay w/ US/CDA too.
The last two weeks have been spent sorting, organizing, pitching... I don't have a dediated sewing room, so my fabrics were in nooks and crannies. Found Rubbermaid storage bins that are just over 6" deep, so when folded fabric is standing up, all are visible. Much nicer than the big deep totes. Anyhow, now that I have a handle on my stash, so to speak, I know I have lots of fabrics to choose from for the different rounds - and they definitely need to be used so I can justify future shopping :)

Okay, okay...I'm starting to stress out as I cannot figure out what to do...
Part of me wants to do a black background with various brights but I"m not sure what?? Other than that, I have not found my way with this project.
I have a half completed center but I am just not happy with it...ah, tomorrow should be a better day................
