Hello ladies! What has everyone been up to? I just made a tree and a church to add to my starter row. I also realized I have a whole extra month. For some reason I thought I had to have my row done and out by Nov. 1 instead of Dec. 12. Not that I am in danger of being done within the next week. It is good to find that extra month. Does anyone have pictures of what they are working on for the row robin? I need to start thinking Christmas presents.

I am so guilty at not haven even started it. I have ideas running thru my head, but nothing on paper yet to see how it will look. Figure it will be next weeks project. I am trying to finish up the wall hanging swap so I can focus on this one. Glad I am not signing up for many the next couple of months because I want to do a good job on this swap.

How is everyone doing? We have five weeks left before we must meet the mailing deadline. The order that is posted on the first thread is the order we need to swap to keep straight. You can start to pm the person below you for their address.

I will mail to Annaquilts, Anna will mail to Whigrose, Whigrose to Babeyruth, Babeyruth to Peggiszo, and peggiszo to QuilterMomma.
If you prefer, I can pm each of you with the next person's address if that is easier for you. I just thought pm chatter between each person would be helpful for working on the row robins. You may have remembered a bit of info while you were working on it that you did not put on the NOTE when mailed.

I decided I will make a barn too. I picked out the pattern and some of the colors. If there is any space left I will add a sunflower or maybe corn.Then I need to sew down any applique pieces before sewing the blocks in one row. This has taken me way longer then I realized. I was way over thinking many of my choices. Just too many. I like where it is going. How are you ladies doing? Any pictures yet?I am getting excited about trading and working on rows for each of you.

QuilterMomma

That will open the door for more fun. I have a couple of outhouse designs to embroider, will those work? (LOL)

The over thinking seems to come into play when doing one of these because we try so hard to come up with our own ideas that we add to much into them. You are doing well Anna.

How is everyone else coming along? I have not started yet, but after the craft show, will get on this one. I paid for the booth thinking that the child would have her candy bars to sell from choir, but they are not going to be ordered in time for the craft show so now I am making up a bunch of ornaments to sell. Then will put some of my quitls up for sale. Pray I sell enough to refurbish my costs for doing this. Daughter will be selling wreaths and poinsettas for choir which is good. Very frustrating. I was so counting on those candy bars so she could hearn her money for the choir trip.

Annaquilts

Oh no on the candy bars. Can she maybe make her own brownies with chocolate chips in it and sell those? My kids used to make glycerene soap bars with little plastic animals in it or different shapes for $5 to earn money for camp. They would go door to door. I now don't let them as it gives me the creeps even with their papa in the car right there.
