I liked it better when we are completely surprised by what everyone makes and who their partner is and not rushing to be the first to send or receive. Kind of takes the surprise element out of it.
Just my 2-cents worth.

You ladies need to change the subject!! You are depressing me! I am only 31yrs old and I love making quilts for family, should I not make them gifts (just in case they will treat them badly?)
I give from the heart, what you choose to do with that is between you and God. I have an aunt who says "quilting is for Little Old ladies!" I just let stuff roll off my back! I have made quilts for my in-laws only to hear, I would have rather.... (fill in the blank!)
I just figure its their loss NOT MINE! I made it with PRAYERS and LOVE... Let God do the rest!!
(I hope I didnt offend anyone... Quilters are the best! Its just easy to jump on a negative band wagon and I NEED somewhere to go that is possitive and uplifting not negative.)
Sent with Quilted Hugs and LOVE!! :)

OK said I was not going to do the Nov/Dec swap, but I changed my mind after seing the beautiful doll quilts sneak a peaks. I'll be happy to take any quilt that someone will do for me. Will pm my address. Can someone tell me how this swap works. Do I do two quilts?, send at the same time, or one at a time? Have ideas but have to wash dishes first.

You do one quilt for one person, unless you sign up for a couple of quilts. When you are finished with it, you send it to your partner. After the 31st, chele will give you a partner and her or his address to make a little quilt fort for. This time it is a secret, so you will make a doll quilt for someone and someone else will make one for you. the rest of the year, each month we have partners where we each make a little quilt for the other one.
On the other hand, if you want to make more, you can always send me a little quilt! :)
