All names have been given out but if FQ Stash Queen sends me her information I can add her into our group. Can someone help her? She was in this for awhile last year or maybe the year before.

Could be me, but pretty much every state is north of Texas!:)

There has been alot of questions about the $10 limit. I have been doing this for a few years now it was set at $10 when I took over and the way the prices keep going up I don't pay to much attention to the limit.

Ashjoy, you could mail your April sp package before you leave, and while on vacation pick up something to send to the next sp swap in May.

This is for SP No.1. I'm not sure if she'll see it or not as she doesn't post on this thread and not much elsewhere. What she wants the most is 'anything handmade', so I hope she likes this. Her state ends in 'a'. Now, what to fill it with...............

SP No. 2 has the same initial as one of last month's SPs and both of February's. She has twin (?) fur babies. She is very specific in her likes and dislikes. Her favourite colours are opposite to some of those she's looking for :confused:

Knitette is that a "baguette" pattern? If it is I've made a few of those but am having a problem sometimes and may think its the needle. If its the pattern what size needle do you use considering it has vinyl?

this is the closest my SP has ever been...I could probably drive it to her LOL, letting too much out of the bag? Now to get to thinking....

Yes quiltnut it is - the pattern is Bridget's Bagettes by Atkinson Designs. I used a 14/90 (can't remember which needle system you all use, lol). For the vinyl I increase my stitch length a little as I don't want to 'perforate' it.
This is the first one I've done on my Pfaff (been in the shop - long story) and have to say the built-in walking foot made a big difference. They slipped and stuck a lot on my Janome.

I actually spent more time lining up and cutting out the tartan than I did making the bag :D The weave was 'off' by a good bit!

Missed last month, and I mean the "missed" in many ways. LOL Got my name and actually ordered something for her on line and had it shipped direct to her. I will still put a package togetyher, of course, hope to do that by the weekend. I am gonna get mine out early this month!! If it kills me. LOL Anyway, mine is going east, I think. Don't have a map to make sure. LOL She posts on here pretty regular, which is unusual for me, my partners have been non-posters for the most part in the past. I may have had this person in a swap some time, not sure which swap it was, and I might be wrong. She asked for a specific fabric line and that is why it is being direct shipped. I knew if I went looking, it wouldn't get done on time. Ha, I might have beat myself at my own game here. LOL Linda, since I live in MIchigan, you might be able to drive to my house. I would welcome you with open arms. We could do coffee. Oh, PM me if you want info on the quilt retreat I do in November. Fun Fun Fun. Anyone from Michigan, or anywhere for that matter can PM me if they want information. Several board members attend each year.
