PS Looking forward to seeing what you come up with using the Repros! :mrgreen:

This is my first Doll quilt swap too and I had this idea in mind. I've got the top and back done, now I just need to know who it's going to so I can embroider the label...I hope that whoever I get likes it. I didn't think to wait to make it :oops:

My first one too. I know what I want to do, but haven't picked fabric out yet. It will probably come mostly from my stash. When ever I say I need some fabric, my hubby reminds me I have a stash and 'why do you need more???' He just doesn't understand the principal....I quilt so I can build up my stash of fabric. I've learned a lot just listening in to the message board and thank everyone who has had a voice. I listen more than I pip up and talk... which is probably good seeing how long I'm rambling now....

After I joined the DJ block swap I saw this swap and thought how neat it'd be to do this too. I was afraid of the time frame though and just watched and waited till I saw October open up. I just love these little quilts that everyone has made from previous months..

The kids and hubby are doing that to me now about my fabric.. I've sorta told them to remind me though as I've got my eyes on a longarm machine, so I'm trying to curtail my spending on anything.

I'm in too if there is still room. Just saw the thread tonight. I plan to line my sewing room with these little quilts :)

Well, now, this DOES sound like a lot of fun. Ducky and Sheila Elaine suggested I join in, and after reading through this and seeing some examples of the beautiful quilts, I'd like to joing in too, if that's o.k. Whoever does the pairing up, please check with my proposed partner ahead of time to ensure shes' o.k. with a male partner on the swap. I wouldn't want whoever she is to be disappointed if she were expecting a female swapper. Thanks! :)
