Thanks I made that in the pin chusion swap.

jaba 01-12-2014 07:43 PM

Laquita and I are partners and we have been in touch with each other so the sewing will begin.

mom-6 01-12-2014 09:02 PM

Sue and I have exchanged intro info and ideas are brewing. . .

Likethedog 01-13-2014 09:00 AM

My partner and I have been in touch. I need to narrow down my list of ideas.

tlambing 01-14-2014 09:04 AM

Glad to see everyone's getting together with their partners!
Can't wait to hear ideas and see sneak peeks.

MizMelly 01-14-2014 01:26 PM

I've started designing something for Quilty-Louise. It will involve flowers and butterflies and dragonflies and will have yellow roses and many shades of purple. And that's all I can say at the moment because it's all in my head and not on paper yet. But it will have some paper pieced blocks and some appliqued cause I can't help myself! Oh yes, I think it's going to be a table mat -- the jury is still out on round or hexagonal. Is that a word?

DustysMomma 01-14-2014 05:13 PM

I hate I ended up missing this one, but it's for the best. I made it back from California, worked 1 day, and have been down with the H1N1/swine flu ever since. I just went back to work today. There was a lady behind me on the plane back who was hacking up a lung, and I'm thinking it was probably her that infected me. Of course, the next day, the man started with it too.

I'm going to love watching you folks post your pretties though!

jaba 01-14-2014 08:04 PM

Started on Laquita's today, kind of changed my mind so just kept sewing. Dusty's Momma if you want a side swap we've done it before. [

JenniePenny 01-16-2014 05:20 AM

I'm making something so pretty I'm in love with it already and will absolutely need to make another exactly the same for my living room coffee table. Think spring with bold contrast...

ljdugas31 01-16-2014 01:41 PM

I just picked out the fabric.Very spring.... Lavender,pink,yellow,flowers and nature. I now have to pick the pattern...

rbwiese, here's a sneak preview of a block I'm doing as part of your runner. This is a test, only! But if you kinda squint a little, you might be able to see what it is.[ATTACH=CONFIG]456901[/ATTACH]
Can anyone guess?

JenniePenny 01-16-2014 04:36 PM

Is it a butterfly?

tlambing 01-16-2014 05:07 PM

OOOoooo Pretties!!!
Done done done WHAT? OKsewnsew I'm impressed! Lovin' that tiny sneak peek pic.

Is it goblet? an hourglass? a flutterby? Likethedog

Likethedog 01-16-2014 05:27 PM

Ha! It's a certain type of flower. When I do the "real" one, I'm going to use all purples for the top petals and all yellows for the bottom, or vice versa. It DOES look a lot like the butterfly I made, which was yellow and orange and my DH thought (pre-antenna) was a chicken.

jaba 01-16-2014 07:06 PM

I sewed on mine yesterday and a little today, got it all quilted and just have a little bit more binding to sew and I'll be ready to send.

My top of my table runner is done, and I have the backing ready too. I'll be able to quilt it this weekend. Here's a sneak peak of one portion of it.

ljdugas31 01-17-2014 10:09 AM

wow looks so pretty!!

I see it now....it's a PANSY!!!! How cute is that.

tlambing 01-17-2014 12:59 PM

Wow, I'm so impressed with all the pics coming in. Can't wait to see them all!

LAQUITA 01-18-2014 03:34 AM

I can't believe all the 'cat ladies' we have on here! Lol. I am highly allergic to them so I have to stay far far away. But I do LOVE love love my mini Yorkie, Gabby. But there isn't many fabrics out there with Yorkies on it, all I seem to find are Scottie's. If anyone runs across any with Yorkies on it please LMK.
:)

Likethedog 01-18-2014 08:15 AM

I looked at our local independent fabric store and the chain store, too, and they each several dog prints, but nothing Yorkie specific. Unless maybe the fabric covered with paw prints were actually Yorkie prints???

LAQUITA 01-18-2014 04:55 PM

Ladies you are awesome! Thanks for the help with the fabric. I'm also looking for wooden spools / bobbins Any size, shape or color. I have a project I am working on for my new studio & am needing some more. If you have any you'd like to sale please send me a pic along either you price. Shipping would be to Texas 76063.
Please PM me with info.
Thank you for the help,

I have been quilting today! The table runner for Ljdudas is almost done. I just have to make and attach the binding.

Here is another sneak peek.

Tfch8184 01-20-2014 09:12 AM

Just popping in to say I'm still kicking. We have the plague floating through the house. A man with a cold and a toddler with a cold is like battling an entire army with a box of tissues. Send in reinforcements lol. I have all my fabric picked and cut just need some time in front of my machine which is hard right now.

OMG! I feel for you. An adult man with a cold can be 5x the handful as 1 toddler. Hope everyones better soon.

tlambing 01-20-2014 09:15 AM

OOOooo 2 very intriguing peeks Jennie. Can't wait to see the whole thing!
