Here's a link to the stripes: http://www.fabric.com/ProductDetail....f-e45c819f6617 And here's the focal print: http://www.fabric.com/ProductDetail....0-5907c0f1c1d5 |
URGods Child2, I have a block going in the mail tomorrow. I am really proud of it. I think it had the best points I have ever done... Thanks for swapping, Phannie

That's going to be a really cute quilt! :thumbup:

Happy Valentine's Day everyone-may you have a safe & love filled day.
Hugs April |
Has anyone on here used the site http://www.marshalldrygoods.com/ to purchase fabric? I just ordered 5 yards of 108" backing that looked really pretty on line. Im hoping it comes out as good when I get it but for the price ($7.99 a yard) I couldnt pass it up. I got the web site from someone but wasnt sure if it was on here or elsewhere. LOVE the pumpkin fabric!
|
Joan,
I have bought from them before and I have had no complaints really. Only once did I purchase a fabric that was very thin but chalk that up to it happens. Love the blocks!! Hugs April |

Happy Valentines Day everyone! No squishes but well ok honestly? I am going tomorrow. I don't usually go on odd week days. so maybe squishes! but on a good note its a lovely Valentines Day out here in Sunny California and the front door is wide open, probably 55 outside at 4 pm. can't beat that. the daffodil and tulips are starting to poke up out of the ground. the bummer is we are not done with weather as of yet and I think they will all get squished. :( this weather tricks the poor things. sigh. I have german chocolate cupcakes waiting for company. come on over while there are still some to be had. the man is on attack mode. I think he is working up to his big steak and tater dinner but maybe will not need so much by the time dinner arrives :)

After getting nothing in the mail box yesterday, I hit the jackpot today! I got 3 blocks and 2 fat8s. I got fabric from Missgigglewings(wonder how she got that handle?Cute.)(I giggle a little when I see her "name") and Cuppy.
I have 3 beautiful blocks. two from my Christmas fabric - Moonrise and TheMamaHauser and one from my Sunflowers from Twinriversfarms. Thanks for swapping... |
Having trouble uploading. All my pictures were reduced to the same size. Some are uploading while others are not. I got 9 grownup blocks today and 5 F8's. So ffrom this group I got F8 from Cuppy, Country 1, and missgigglewings. I sent home grown-up blocks to Nanakathy and Roseirish and Twinriversfarm.
|
I got grown up blocks from Country1, Jaba and ljdugas. Sorry not letting me upload.
|
got 2 more squishies in mail containing f8's to make and 2 squishies of blocks returned. Managed to get two blocks made today--one was sunflower material for Phannie1--other was dark blue with red stars for Americana quilt--dont remember her name right off hand but pics are posted on my profile page,

got a F8 from missgigglewings and a finished block from twinriversfarm. Thank you so much for the nice block, it will work perfectly in the quilt[ATTACH=CONFIG]395169[/ATTACH]

I didn't get to open our mail box today, one of the kids has lost the key! He got the mail yesterday and left the key and mail on the kitchen table, instead of putting the key away in its spot! Hopefully with some all out searching we will find the key tomorrow.
I got a lot of sewing done in the last two days: Now up to 13/36 (36%) done: Abby's Mom, AZkat, Gaijin, Jaba, Joanelizbay, Lestron31, Ljdugas31, Moonwork42029, NanaKathy55, OldCatLady, RoseIrish48, Twinriversfarm and Urgodschild2. If any of you want a sneak peak I have updated my picture album in my profile page. Christina |
We had that happen one time too many, so I took the key and had 3 copies made at Ace Hardware - and randomly stashed them around the house (and one on my key ring). Since the box is bolted to the side of the house, any method to open other than the key will be destructive to the siding... so those keys are more precious than gold.

Received another f8 today -- Goldendog55
Actually felt good enough yesterday and tonight to get 2 blocks finished. Moonrise & Roseirish48 should watch their mail boxes for a block from me. Dad signed off as "approved" so they can leave Possum Trot now. I have changed my signature link so the newest blocks should be there in case anyone wants to peek at them. Country1 |

No F8's today, but I got a stunning block from moonwork! Thanks so much! :thumbup:
[ATTACH=CONFIG]395318[/ATTACH] |
I rec'd F8ths in the mail yesterday from:
goldendog55 Cubby Missgigglewings Navarre2011 Thank you everyone, Country1 |
Please let me know if you have NOT rec'd a F8 from me. I sent them out the Friday after the lists were distributed so they should have arrived almost everywhere (I am thinking Japan & Canada may still be traveling).

I received beautiful blocks from dahna42, gaijin, goldendog55, jaba, joanelizbay, lestrong601, ljdugas x2, moonrise and travelinggramma. I LOVE them, Thank you all so much :)
I'm also posting a pic of why it is so important to wrap blocks when sending. The PO monster bit into this one. It even ripped the plastic wrap. It would have been so much worse if not wrapped at all. Thankfully the marks are going to land in the seam allowance. :) |
