    Janis,
    Two things come to mind when I think of Indiana:basketball and farms. Ok,three, and snow. I am sure I'd love anything you come up with. :-P

    Doesn't Indiana, like Iowa, have a large Amish community?

    Neato!! I wish there were someone near me that joined in the swap!
    But I did so enjoy the telephone exchange with Oksewglad (Gladie), we chatted for a good while and got to know each other.
    Talking on the phone was one of the things I missed about the Nov/Dec swap. I have had great chats with my doll quilt swappers!

    Thanks for the suggestions, everyone. I just wish I'd gotten some race fabric after the 500. I'll be sure to look for some this summer, in case we do something about our state next year. I've come up with a few of my own too, now. The Colts are in the playoffs again, but just how far will they go this time. Thanks.

    I agree about missing the one on one contacts. I have made new friends by having swap partners that I can write , call, and email to. I prefer knowing the likes and colors of my partners., but this has been fun finding fabrics that denote particular high points of my state.

    happy quilting. Jacie

    I just finished my doll quilt top, I'll savor a little break and then I'll sandwich and quilt it tomorrow. I am really happy about how it turned out. I wasn't sure there for awhile as I spent some time measuring wrong, cutting, sewing and ripping, but in the end I really like it. I hope she likes it too! :-D
