Thanks to difergi for a yummy fruit block!

oldcatlady 04-14-2012 08:46 AM

WOW! that must be part of the line of fabric I used when I did a side swap with some of you in the last Boom. I sent out the rest of the fabric to some in this Boom. I didn't realize there were panels to go with it. Thanks for showing the selvage so I know where to look :)

I have just received a pile of panels, suitable for baby quilts. I am offering them to this group first, since I can't handle a hundred requests. This would make a great project for your quilting group, scouts, etc. They are very beautiful and free.
I don't want them to sit in someone's stash. I want them to be used and enjoyed. Let me know if this is a project for you & your group. There are 2 colorways. There is a church in the design so these are "
Christian" but you can appl over the church or cut them up. Dotty

Yes, could be4 cut up for a Boom... you gave me an idea! Any takers? Free!

Dotty, I'll put one to use if you have an extra. A group I belong to here makes quilts for a shelter. I think the one with colors would make a cute quilt for a child.

Phannie1, thanks for the block! I got it, and it goes great with the others.

dotcomdtcm 04-14-2012 10:52 AM

Yes, great idea. In the mail Monday!

Got a breat block in the mail from Scrapper today. And completed another to put in the mail Monday for Calquilter. Thanks again for swapping and thanks Dotty for sharing..... Phannie[ATTACH=CONFIG]327740[/ATTACH]

Sent you a pm. My church group does quilts or fleece blankets for the battered women's shelter and pajamas for the kids. We have a goal of 15 to 20 blankets- fleece- quilts- crochet or knitted- and 25 pajama bottoms a month. It is our mission project for our sewing group.
Thanks for sharing !

wendsy 04-14-2012 07:30 PM

Dotty I could use a panel-great for Christmas gift bags, either color is fine :)

wendsy 04-14-2012 07:34 PM

Received 2 great blocks today, a Dash churn from Scrapper and a wonderful block from MaggieBB!

I am working on the blocks, got 8 done today, working on more tomorrow:) A good way to work a rainy Saturday away!

dotcomdtcm 04-15-2012 06:12 AM

Gift bags are a great idea.
I had not considered place mats either

Difergie 04-15-2012 02:36 PM

Finished my last four blocks and they will go in the mail tomorrow. Sad to be finished, now to some UFO's...

Phannie1 04-15-2012 03:55 PM

I got two more blocks finished today. I have three going to the mail Monday. They are Calquilter, Marytoddliz and Maggiebb. Enjoy and thanks for swapping... Phannie

Quilt Mom 04-16-2012 10:00 AM

Scrapper, I got your block. Thank you! It is great.

I really like the way a swap like this creates a truly scrappy quilt. I find it fun to see the quilt top come together as the blocks come home. Beautiful!

marytoddliz 04-16-2012 07:31 PM

I received a great block from Scrapper! Thanks so much~ will post picture soon!

marytoddliz 04-17-2012 01:41 PM

Does anyone know any secrets to get ink out of clothing after it has been laundered?

My favorite white blouse has a ink stain right on the front. It is a double knit top. Any secrets before I decided to add a applique to it?

oma7 04-17-2012 02:58 PM

Try hairspray. Spray and rub a little. It has worked in the past for me. Hope it helps you!

Scrapper 04-17-2012 08:29 PM

Dot- just a sticky on the back will work ?

dotcomdtcm 04-24-2012 06:56 AM

I use the address labels that come endlessly in the mail, near the edge. I don't think the glue will harm. Some sign the back w a Pigma-type pen. TY

sharon b 04-24-2012 07:01 AM

Ok I can/ will do that for your block coming back - glad to know you want it :)

sapdoggie 04-27-2012 06:09 AM
