My goodness, you guys create great quilts!!! I love JoAnn's Pinwheels quilt, the details are fantastic! Betc liz your flower quilt is gorgeous, the colors are very eye catching, it makes me want to keep going back and looking at it.

Well, I took my two Dq's to our annual quilt guild potluck yesterday, One from Oksewglad, and Letsquilt, for decorations, and I got so many compliments, and questions on them, so we may have new member joining this swap from Florence. They were liked very much, and I was the proud parent of these two MASTERPIECES.

Such very gorgeous quilts, ladies!!! Every one is so clever and creative! I'm diligently working on MsGrace's little quilt, and am proud to say that despite vacation and other time challenges, I will have it finished and in the mail before end of the month.

I am happy with it so far, but still have challenges to get it done. Pray for me!! :D

Oh my gosh, you guys bring a swap mama boss to tears with those beautiful creations! I can tell you put your heart and soul into each and every one of those quilts. They're all so stinkin' cute! My cheeks hurt from smiling! Here they all are together so far. http://www.flickr.com/photos/5197990...7624815445130/ You can click on individual pictures to see who made them and you can post comments if you want.

Way to go swappers! And thanks for encouraging others to join in on our fun. The more the merrier! The September sign-up is here: http://www.quiltingboard.com/t-60500-1.htm

I want to thank Jeannie aka Quiltingaddict for this beautiful doll quilt! Sorry, I couldn't do the post...transitioning to a new computer, and all photos were put on disc temporarily.
Don't you just love this little beauty! She did such a wonderful job on it, looks like a hard pattern, too.

Chele, thanks so much for posting all of the quilts on flicker. Just as I was hoping when we first started, we have our own little mini-gallery to view all of the quilts together. They are all so fabulous and all so unique. I know there are still lots more coming. I can hardly wait to see them!

laparshall 08-27-2010 06:16 AM

Wow! Just checked out the August Gallery. Chele, where did you find all of this new talent? What great additions all of the newbies are proving to be. Thanks for joining us. Would be very happy to have any one of you for a swap partner. Awesome work so far this month everyone.

Kwiltkrazy: Received your package. Will let you know when I am mailing mine. Then we will open both while on the telephone together. Oh the excitement is building. . .

Popped my partner's (Mary) quilt in the mail today she should have it Monday or so.

Here's a pic of the one she sent me. My granddaughters are going to love this one.

I just got my quilt from tslowery aka Teresa. What a bright spot in an otherwise wet dreary day!! It has been raining here every day for the past week and her quilt was just the pick me up I needed. She kept telling me she was a newbie but no way!! It's bright, spontaneous and just plain fun to look at. I just love the way she has used the stitches on her machine with the variegated threads. I have this one on the wall in my guest/computer room. Every time I look up at it, it brings a smile to my face.
She also sent homespun fabrics which are going to go into a Xmas wall quilt this year. Many, many thanks for being such a super partner!!

My camera is going ballistic on me. That is a white wall, not yellow and the second border is a very pretty green. Thanks again Teresa.

I got my beautiful doll quilt from MistyMarie today and when I opened it it gave me chills. It is beautiful, OMG I just love it. It has some wonderful decorative stitches. And she also sent me some wonderful purple fat quarters(my fav. color) and the cutest sewing kit compact with a mirror.
Thanks again Misty, it was all awesome........ :XD: :thumbup:

Mandie 08-27-2010 10:42 AM

WOW!! WOW!! Look at all of that hard work!!
Beautiful!! Absolutely stunning!! :shock: :shock: :shock:
Great job Misty Marie! :thumbup:

kwiltkrazy 08-27-2010 11:03 AM

Oh my, Misty Marie, that is one gorgeous, outstanding quilt. Is it paper pieced, and what is the name of the pattern.

Tslowery, I would have to agree with cjaye, you don't sew like a newbie, your quilt is adorable.

Mary what a cute quilt.

Sapdoggie, as always, another beautiful quilt.

Gosh, how many swappers did we have this month?

You ladies sure do rock. Sorry, and guys.

dvseals 08-27-2010 11:42 AM

I'd like to know the name of Misty Marie's pattern too.

Psychomomquilter 08-27-2010 12:08 PM

dvseals 08-27-2010 12:15 PM

You're welcome Partner :)

jeanettegoodall 08-27-2010 12:41 PM

i also would appreciate the pattern or the name of the pattern

jljack 08-27-2010 03:16 PM

Chele, thanks for putting all the little quilts on the Flickr file. It makes it so much easier to look at them all.

MsGrace, the top is done, and I'll be quilting tomorrow. I think you'll like this one...I struggled with it a bit, but think it's coming out OK.

I have my DQ from Mandie in hand,
an now in Eternal Webness...

Wonderful job done,
doing the cutting for all of them little squares,
You are more of a quilter than I will ever be.
My thread art can hide all of my (oops) Family chanel.
When a line isn't in line you see it.
that is what I have trouble with, keeping all pieces in place to plow through with the machine.


To much time on my hands.
Maybe that is why they hurt so???

I would just like to plant this idea into your heads.....When y'all type the words laides, gals, women in refuring to us out here in quilt land We ""MEN""... NEED some love sent our way. I am open for some sugestions for a UNISEX word to be used when THE LADIES are in MIXED company with MEN.

Send my all the PM'S this site can handel,


I can engore them just as easy... as answer them
