Well since I know that today was the cut off date for signing up, I - with heavy heart - am going to have to pass yet again this month. My Other Half spent a week in the hospital and we are dealing with all the extra visits to several specialist and the bills have started to roll in.
So instead causing possible panic for my partner -- I'm going to see if by chance if I might have enough scraps to start a scrappy nine-patch quilt once we deal with the next two days of all day specialist appointments. Just I am going to have to pack some hand stitchery in my bag.
Hav4sons .... sorry about your boy. Will keep ya in my prayers.

Can't wait to get my name...I don't always send homemade stuff but I always send a package I would love to receive...don't we all? I think I have been a "swapper" for about 2 years now so I guess I am not considered a "newbie"..I am sort of hoping for a newbie so I can send some of the tools I have collected (especially the ones I have bought over and over again!) I simply love the anticipation of my SP receiving the package I send and I can't wait to see what comes to me...it is all fun. I am already packing up some stuff and will add what I can on my SP's "want" list.
I wish all of you were coming for dinner tonight. It is snowing here but not enough to mess up the streets and it is COLD so I am making a pot roast..it is definitely comfort food night tonight. I have a fire in the fireplace and my house smells like my grandmother is cooking in the kitchen.

I am going to try this post a second time.
Ohhhhhhhhhh yeahhhhhhhhh today is jan 31st. totally spaced
out todays date.
I can't wait to get my name.
On another note yesterday I got 2 (of my many) subscription mags
in the mail Quiltmaker and American Quilter.
There is an ADORABLE tote bag pattern in QM that I am thinking of
making for myself (to see how easy it is) pattern says the experience
level is an intermediate. Depending on what it is will depend on how
I deem my experience. For tote bags I will say beginner. LOL
Of course I THINK I have the fabrics picked out (in my mind at least)
that I will pull from my stash for this. Might even add a touch of embroidery
to it.
Here is a picture of the tote bag.
