I am so excited over this swap!! I got the template today that I was looking for...and now on to making the quilt :D :D :D
I love the variety of the quilts that are exchanged...I can't wait to keep adding to the two I have now on my sewing room wall... :mrgreen: :mrgreen: :mrgreen:
I look at these quilts in this manner...someone took many hours to make me something special...all I see is that, not a missed point or a crooked seam...I see a beautiful quilt on my wall made lovingly by a member of my quilting family 8) 8) 8)

I would love to join this......sent my PM already.
Question:
Do we actually use these as doll quilts? Or do we hang these on walls?

To all who are new or less experienced quilters. This is just my opinion but I know a lot of our quilters feel the same that the Doll Quilt Swaps are not about what talent or skills you have but a time to have fun and exchange a little bit of ourselves with each other so we get to know one another better. I don't believe anyone is going to be disappointed as we all appreciate the time and effort that goes into these little beauties. A simple quilt is just as beautiful as one that is more intricate. It is a joy to share our love of quilting and we all have been at the beginning and have made and still making our share of mistakes. So just relax and enjoy the process and make new friends and deepen friendships!! It is just plain fun to make and anticipate these quilts!! As a 30 yr quilter I learn from everyone no matter their skill level. It might be a new way to look at fabric choices or it might be a technique I haven't tried yet. So just have fun with this swap and enjoy!

amma and Rhonda, well said. This swap is enjoyed by everyone.
nellie: Just send one quilt for November/December. We decided to combine the months since this is usually a busy time of year for everyone.
tlrnhi: Terri, you're on my list. The good list! Are you back from down under?
I think I answered all the questions. If not, please feel free to PM me.
Chele
P.S. 58 swappers so far! Woo hoo! Sign up closes October 31.
