Candies in the mail!!
Love all the ideas - and I have plenty others - just to figure out which one! I do love the rainbow quilts I have made but hate the sorting. So I am planing on going scrappy. Growing up odd is looking good! About 24 ladies get together each Monday and quilt , sew, crochet, knit, and alot of talking. I love bringing my candies there and just pick and sew.
Here is one I did last year and gifted it to a very surprised friend.

Here is a list of swappers by birthday. Please use this list to mark off when you mail your packages out. Also you can keep track of when it arrives.
Plus when it is your birthday you will know who you should be getting packages from.
Barb
So when you click the link it will ask if you want to download it ...say yes.
2 things will come up. Don't know why my bls license shows just ignore)
but there will also be a list you can print. If you have any problems let me know.

This is a 3-D Row by Row we did... Took me 20 years to see what needed doing and the panel fabric. I took apart the rows and added the fabric we got on our trip to Alaska.
Anyway, anyone interested? So far there's me and one other gal from here cause it's a major commitment. Am I allowed to host it? Does anyone know? Seems there's a lot of rules here and I don't wanna be stepping on any toes. I asked here cause ya'll are already vetted and all.

Please don't post info on this swap for yours it will just be confusing.
thanks
