June is good weather to be outside to exercise. . So I thought a good FQ theme for July would batiks so we are ready for swimsuits. So I think it is the month we should try to renew our commitment to weight loss and our health We need to get ready for swimsuit season. We are all so used to doing for others.Remember sometimes it is ok to put yourself first. So lets see how we can play with some your choice of FQ's. Please send quality fabric that you would want to receive in return. As always if you don't have the theme, send what you have. If you don't have a FQ, then send a linear 1/4 yard. If you have signed up to be in the running for the prize, please send your FQ to the hostess by the 15th of the month. As the winner has worked hard for her prize.

Eat healthy, exercise, make wise choices and lose weight but most of all have fun!!!

Sign up deadline to be a part of the PRIZE adventure July 4th at 9 pm cst. You are encourage to contribute to the thread even if you are not in for the prize.

To let me know you are participating post on the thread and then send a PM for the mailing address. Our FQ theme for July is batiks.

I wanted to be in for July, but I swear on the June thread it said July was going to be purple! I just went out and bought a purple FQ... and I'm not going to make it back to the store for a while.

I'm a little confused about the mailing deadlines: is it mailed in July or August? I would have to wait to August, to know who the winner is - right? If it's an August mailing deadline, I'm definitely in. If it's a July mailing, I don't think I can. We're doing some traveling and I just can't make it back to the shop before we go. I'm very disappointed!

Erin, every month's challenge goes from the 1st of the month to the last day of the month. You are supposed to get your fq sent to meanmom by the 15th.

Erin, you are correct. On the June thread it did say the theme for JUly is purple. I wrote it down backwards on my spreadsheet. So the theme is supposed to be purple, but if you bought a batik that is fine too. You mail it to me and I mail them out to the winner. As long as it gets to me in time to mail it out that is fine.
