My daughter is in the Philippines and she smelled something really nasty in their living/family room. Their cat had killed a gheko type something and just left it. She said it was the nastiest smell.
|
I find dead ones all the time...they don't smell here. Maybe different kind? dunno.......
|
I thought it would stay hot there. We are around the 70īs during the day but gets cold at night around 30 to 35. We have gekos too but they donīt come in the house. We had a wasp yesterday biggest I have seen around 2 1/2 ".

Wow, those are growing up so pretty!

I'm still waiting on my center :-( And still binding these blasted placemats :evil: I like ALL colors, so just send the centers to me, then I can have them all :twisted: It's raining hard here, and cold, so I'm just waiting inside the front door for the mailperson...I don't like getting wet! |
MJ..be sure to stay inside...sweet as you are..I'm sure you'd melt. I'm just fine to continue my wait by the mailbox :wink:
|
Got it, got it, got it!!!! Terri , it finally came! Its much much prettier in person that in your pic. I've got an idea already about what to do with it. I have to check my stash....oh...this is too much fun!!

Okay , here goes have been working on this for the last couple of days. Really wanted to some applique, but it would have spoiled the beauty of those tulips. So have given it a frame and think it makes the tulips stand out now.
Jstitch hope you like it. Elle |
Great job Elle! I've been working on Babee's...did quite a bit yesterday and I'm thinking that what I did is not gonna work..so back to the drawing board today. :cry:
|
Elle, it's gorgeous!
I still have yours and I'm thinking the one border I want to do is not going to do it justice. Funny thing I have to tell you......I lost it in my room. Yup! LOST IT! Panic set in and tore my room apart, but fear not.....I FOUND IT! It's in a safe place and if I forget where it is....Jstitch knows EXACTLY where I put it. lol |

Elle!
This looks fantastic! You did an outstanding job... |
Thanks Terri, glad you found it or I might have had to buy a ticket to Guam, darn it, now that could have been fun, have to hunt for it in your sewing room.
Just go for it I know I will love anything you do. Canīt wait till I get yours cause I get to put the last border on it, woo hoo. :D Elle |

Babeegirl...here is your round 2 border..hope you like it. I was trying to keep all the cat hair off of it, but...so sorry...the inspector just HAD to butt her nose into it. Believe me, I snatched it up really quick after the picture.
What do you want to do about a label? Do you want me to embroider you one? Babeegirl IRR Group 4, Round 2 [ATTACH=CONFIG]23925[/ATTACH] |
Sandpat,
tell me about that border patern it's totally cool and I would love to know how to make it. |
Beautiful Sandpat!!!
|
wow:) I'm just in awe! If you'd like to embroider one I'd love it. I didn't get anything done this weekend aside from getting a virus. My mouse hand is about the only thing that doesn't hurt. Even my eyeballs hurt :roll:
|
Oh Babee, I'm sorry about the virus. I'll be happy to make you a label, after all, I do have the light background fabric, I'll use some of that. WHat would you like for it to say? Mine says: International Round Robin, 2008. next line says, made by my friends on quiltingboard.com..underneath it has lines for everyone to sign.
Want something different? And hope you feel better! |
Got both the centers in the mail today from AKAngel!!! This was the "missing" package so I'm relieved it made it. Wanted to let everyone know.
|
Thanks. I appreciate that.
|
I finally got up the nerve to try my idea on Terri's center today.... :shock: :? :lol: :lol: Success!!!! It is coming right along!! I can't show it yet...not finished with it, but even DH was impressed!! How's that for bragging on myself :oops: :oops:

I'm excited! I've bought beautiful fabrics for TexasQuilt's center but have to wait until after Christmas to work on it. I'm still working on Christmas presents, but should post pix this weekend!
:D :D :D :D |
Hiya from the frozen North of England it was 0 deg C when we landed yesterday afterbeing delayed 3 1/2 hours. it was minus 4 this morning. so got a red nose that could beat Rudolphs.
Have finished jstitches centre and wonder if you want me to post it of a little earlier to you, or will I hold off Terri. Can't wait to get back to Spain, but loving seeing the GD and will see my kids on Saturday. Elle |
Oh my Elle, you better bundle up and stay cuddled up to DH so your sewing fingers won't freeze! Enjoy your visit with the grands though, I know you will.
I finished Babeegirl's center and will hold onto it a little longer...I'm waiting for her to send her label to me. I'll would like to mail it a little bit early..I'm thinking that a little early will help out some in these next rounds. |
Sorry to hear you're not enjoying the british weather. I'm in the midlands and its cold here too. Enjoy your visit though. Which part of northern england are you in?
When you return to spain can I come with you? :-) |
Elle, hold off until after Christmas. I'm putting a stop on my mail while we are gone and I don't want to chance any packages/squishys sitting in the mailbox or by the door. I do have someone coming in 2 times a day for the cats and they will be checking the mail, but I don't want them to have to worry about getting it. If you mail it out after Christmas, I'll be back and won't have to worry.
|
I have a general question....If the block you are working on has applique on it...and you'd like to add some applique with your border....do you have to use the same technique? Opinions please???????
|
my opinion is no, you do not have to use the same technique.
That is the purpose of this sampler, I think, to share all our talents. |
I agree with purple
|
OK..I was just thinking about that and wondering... :lol:
