karenpatrick, Go ahead & join in. I haven't joined, but am following along. I have my International Fabric Swap quilt to finish, a memory quilt with photos to have done by August for my BFF of 56 years for her 70th birthday and another to make in the fall when the first two are done. IF no babies come along, I'll go back to this thread and do it then. If any babies come along, this will have to go on the back burner again. :)

I like this! Yes Karen you should join in with your stash and get another UFO done! It really doesn't take much time at all.

Irishrose, that floral is to die for. Go ahead and send it to me. You wouldn't want me do die would you.

If you have time on your hands, go to the free Craftsy BOM. 2 blocks a month, very good instructions. You can catch up easily & be ready for April!

OF COURSE it's not too late to join in, it's easy to play catch-up. Mystery projects are fun...;o)

Oh but GramaJo ... you could be doing this one as a Mystery BABY quilt ... and be prepared! :)

Greetings everyone! Monday is cccccooooommmmiiiinnnnggggg. Of course I work at the Antique Mall every Monday morning so everyone will see the new instructions before me. Darn!!!!!

I did get a Christmas gift done this morning. My SIL and BIL are hunters and I was given a box of fabric and inside was 2 Xmas stockings. One had a buck on it and the other a doe. So I just had to make them up for Christmas. SIL will be in ND for daughter's graduation, so I won't even have to mail. I can't believe I am ahead of schedule. DH has been known to send gifts 4 -6 months after the holiday. I have taken photos but haven't learned how to upload it by myself yet. So when that happens you all will see.

I better get out for a walk. I'm getting a snack attack.

irishrose, love the floral. Can't wait to see it done.

Have a great day ladies.

I'd like a strawberry lemonade unless the train serves wine without sulfites. Just sitting here in the club car with my feet up watching the scenery go by. Monday, here we come!

QuiltE,
Hopefully I won't have any baby quilts. Grands are still a little young & we don't want any surprises. :p Besides, I want to make this one for me. I'm working on UFOs in between--I've vowed to get them finished (or most of them anyway) this year.

I will have to wait like you because I will be at quilt guild. I look forward to sewing with the ladies at the guild too though, so I am still looking forward to Monday! I expect there will be lots of pages to rewind through when I get back home!
