Those scrappy blocks are great together!
I know what I'll be doing for my next row (Robbi24's, I think? With the gorgeous cardinals), but haven't started yet, so... it'll be a lot of work once I get back in town. At least the hardest part (deciding) is done with! *grin*

Robbi24 04-06-2011 05:32 PM

Oh I just love the rows. I believe I recieve this one next. Soooooooooo I thinking, lol great job

Short an Sweet 04-09-2011 04:04 AM

Well the 2nd mail-out date is fast approaching, how is everyone coming along? I admit I'm a tad behind. One of my machines broke and I just got it replaced last week and then my husband got home and fixed my other one lol. I should still be able to mail by the 15th. I will be emailing each of you a picture of the rows when I get them finished. Saritabee would like to be surprised. Love the scrappy blocks, anyone else have any pictures to post? Happy sewing, hope everyone has a blessed week.

craft phanatic 04-10-2011 03:47 PM

Robbi, I will be mailing mine out Monday with booklady's row and my siggy blocks. Hopefully you will get them before you mail yours on. I can't wait to see what you added to mine.

craft phanatic 04-11-2011 05:07 AM

So how much are we to insure the packages for. I will be getting delivery conf. but was unsure how much insurance to get.

I've heard differing ideas on that, some have said that they will only pay if you can prove the cost of the item lost? which would mean receipts from each person that worked on the parts that were lost? so I would say just do the basic I think thats $100, but you can ask your local postal clerk and see what they say?

craft phanatic 04-11-2011 12:38 PM

robbi, the package has been mailed. Let me know when you get it.

Ps to Booklady: I love stars and log cabins sooooooo now to decied on the ones I picked out for yours. I did get the rows today, oh so beautiful. And the label is great, and Robin the siggy blocks such a neat idea.

No problem! I am the Senior Class sponsor at my school so May is taken up with graduation things! I'll just need to do a little at a time.

I'm glad everyone else is running late too (except craft phanatic, who is rockin' awesome). *grin*
I've been out of town almost this entire month, except for work days. I should have it ready to mail on Saturday, though.

Those blue and brown rows up above are GORGEOUS! :)

Ok, so here is the second row for short and sweet. BUT !!!! I made a major mistake! I was reading her entry in the book she sent along and found out she wanted the blocks vertical NOT horizontal!!!!!

Im' hoping you can do something with them Veronica. I am so sorry I didn't read your book before I made the blocks.

I tried to keep in line with your fall colors and the whole idea of fall. . . the trees, one block of leaves, the sunshine and a log cabin with a twist block. Hope you enjoy it. . . again so sorry about the mistake. After you get it back, let me know and I'll try to make some new tree blocks in the other direction if you can't use these.

Will take it to the post office tomorrow. Let me know when you get it craft phanatic!

LOVE IT!! It will work fine just like it is, I was worried about the maple leaf, but it looks great on it's side

Booklady, Sara's Row will be leaving to head your way tomorrow.
Sara, did you want the blocks just basted together also? or do you want the blocks sewn and just the rows basted?

It has been alot of fun doing Sara's row, not all of my ideas worked out as I intended but some of them turned out even better than I thought. Can't wait to get Robbi's Christmas one next. Happy Sewing!!!!!!!!!!!!!

K, Sara would prefer to not see pictures of her rows, so anyone that would like to see pictures of the row I did, just send me your email in PM and I will send you the pictures, I haven't been able to figure out how to add pics to PM's lol

I was thinking blocks sewn together and rows basted. But it's not hard to sew the blocks together later if you didn't. :)

I mailed Robbi's off to you today, so hopefully it gets there soon. The picture's not attaching; I'll try it in a separate post ~

saritabee 04-19-2011 09:09 PM

yeah, it's still not attaching. I'll have to wait until the internets are in a more cooperative mood. *grin-sigh*

K, here is what I received (and I know you had already posted yours but they were worth repeating)and I will post pictures as I go, I have decided to match the cream out of your blocks for the background in mine

craft phanatic 04-23-2011 07:14 PM

S&S, I received your rows from Booklady. Would you like me to continue horizontally. I am putting some directional blocks in so I thought I better ask. Prob won't get started on it for awhile as I am finishing up my Funky Cats for another swap.

thanks for posting the pictures of Robbi's; it just didn't want to load them for me! :)

Short an Sweet 04-25-2011 06:03 PM

no problem, I think I am going to put my row under Saritabee's (under Robbi's row)and let the last two put their's on top of Robbi's? My background fabric is very close in color to Robbi's. I will be starting on hers tomorrow
