Have to get everything in storage by Sun. a.m. when we leave, so will get machine out Mon. a.m. and finish it all up to send to Gail.
I received Pam's row and already have most of it cut out and ready to start sewing ASAP. Might be the only one I actually get done on time. :P

OK....I'm am trying really hard to get caught up on everything and the weather is NOT cooperating...LOL :D My lights have been going in and out for days now because of all the horrible flooding. I am so thankful that everyone has stayed safe.
Anyway....I wanted to post a picture of the extra label that I got from Elaine "TF Quilter"...it is SO PRETTY!!
And....it has a little bee on it for "Qbee" :D :D :D
Check it out!!

Just a reminder since FQ Stash Queen's rows are going around. I did NOT include an extra block because she didn't want one so I just didn't want anyone to worry about doing that extra block :D
Again, so sorry I have been so far behind. I am slowly getting caught up on my postings, pictures, etc. I should be totally caught up really soon. The Boomerang Swap is the only thing I'm still behind on but I got all my pictures posted on there tonight between storms..LOL.
When my mom passed away in December (right after my dad passed last July) I really thought that I would just keep myself busy but I'm thinking 2 Boomerang Groups, Fabric Swaps, Classes at the LQS, Hosting the Magnet Swap and the Row Robin may have been pushing it a bit...LOL ;) Of course I also didn't take into account the days that I wouldn't be up to doing much. Anyway...I'm back on a roll so hopefully I will post my "thank yous" and pictures more timely now.
I concur, lovely siggy block. Am looking into doing a similar one but with kitchen utensils on it. Are we supposed to send the extra block on or keep it for ourselves? I really don't want an extra block (hope I don't hurt anyone's feelings), but I want my quilt to look like a kitchen quilt, not a hodge podge on the back.
I don't think extra postage is necessary as by the third round we'll probably be at $11.95 anyway. I don't have a problem as long as you don't send cinder blocks and bricks.
Blessings, Cherie

So, I would like for my row to be in the middle (that is why I signed on line 3. If you would be so kind as to sign your name on the line of your row...
If anyone would like for me to send extra cash for the cost of shipping, I will gladly do that...just let me know.
Looking for to receiving TF Quilters row.

Okey Dokey FQ Stash Queen....your row picture. Bless your heart, I know you have been wanting to see it and I promise I have NOT been ignoring you. We have had so much bad weather that it's been hard to post anything much less pictures.
Also, regarding your PM, I feel SO bad....I could have sworn that I told you about the trouble with the paper towel but I must have told someone else. Anyway...long story short, the paper towel roll needs to have alot of embroidery (the decorative stitch on the towels and the words) and I just can't do it. Also, in order to get the ends rounded, it needs to be appliqued with the "needle turn" stitch which I can not do. Anyway....long story short I went with a raw edge applique instead. I found some beautiful fabric at my LQS that matched your colors beautifully and used them as well as some of the fabric that you sent me. I really hope you like it...please be honest.
Thanks Gail. I'd sure like to see a pic of mine in the meantime. Your row sounded so cute when you described it. Pretty please with sugar on top, will you post it for me?

So....for you guys with your embroidery machines...here is the paper towel block I was going to make for FQ Stash Queen:
http://2.bp.blogspot.com/_pgGd8vKz5Q...per+Towels.JPG
Now....I can tell you that without the little decorative stitch, it just looks like a white blob...ask me how I know LOL :D
Anyway....maybe one of ya'll can make it work. It was a fun idea but didn't work for me. I was going to put it in the middle probably bigger than the other blocks and then have a fork and spoon on each side (like smaller than normal block) and then something on the ends. Anyway...if anyone wants to go with it...have fun. I know FQ Stash Queen really like the idea and I am so sorry I was not able to do it :(
