LOOKIE WHAT SANDPAT MADE FOR ME!!!! Patti and I decided to call and open together, so she was on the phone with me when I opened this beautiful little gem!! You cannot appreciate the detail in the quilting without seeing it in person, but it is unbelievable!! Thank you so much for such a beautiful quilt (it's Shadow Trapunto for those of you who aren't familiar with the technique) - and one that I will treasure for always!!

By the way, Patti's modem is down, so she'll have to post what I sent her sometime next week when she's back on line! She says hi to everyone and she commented she's getting lots done without having access to the board! I think that'd be true for most of us, eh?

Sorry this is late being posted MissGigglewings. Being sick is for the birds.

Here's the little gem she sent me and I posted a pic of it with all the others I cherish. It will go in the empty space on the wall.

Janstar 02-20-2010 10:10 PM

OK a little note here, Have all of you signed up for the March quilt Swap? If not, PM chele and get your name on the list. Time is running out, and you'll be sorry if you are left out. These little quilts are too cute and the swap too much fun to be missed. :) :) :) Ya, I'm the 'town crier' on this swap.

Ms Grace 02-22-2010 05:36 AM

All the little quilts this month are beautiful!
I'm mailing mine out today. :-)

Chrys 02-22-2010 06:54 AM

Mine is being quilted this morning, and hopefully will be in the mail tomorrow! :)

laparshall 02-22-2010 07:07 AM

So many beautiful little quilts. You are all doing such nice work. I have completed my top, and today will begin my attempt at free motion quilting. I was fortunate enough at the retreat I was on this weekend to have someone teach me to do free motion quilting on my machine. So I am off to my sewing room to give it a shot. Let's see how much I learned. I hope LadyGen won't mind my practicing on her quilt. Wish me luck. . .Linda

Quilt Mom 02-22-2010 07:13 AM

I am (unexpectedly) home, and in the 'let's quilt!' mode. I have a doll quilt sandwiched and ready to go. Here's hoping I have an uninterrupted day! :D

crazyquilternc 02-22-2010 08:32 AM

Janis, What asupriseto get your quilt in the mail today! I love your heart's! The way you did the hearts was so clever and the blue and pink are my color's.I'm going to hang it in my computer room so I can see it every day! Thank you

Of course I don't mind! I'm running way behind on your little quilt, as I just haven't had as much time to sit and do it as I expected to! Guess that's what I get for planning an applique quilt rather than a pieced one... It was going to be 18x24, but it looks like I'll have to make it be 12x18, so that it actually gets done somewhere in the vicinity of the month (actually, it should be done before then... I hope!), I hope you don't mind!

Chele 02-22-2010 11:26 AM

Wow! I missed a few days of this thread. What wonderful quilts everyone has made. I love them all!

Wow, Chele, thanks for putting all the pics in -- did we all do great or what?? :D

The February Doll Quilt that I made for jljack aka: Janice, went out in this morning's mail. Janice has asked me to post pictures, so she can see what is coming her way!! :thumbup: She & I just can't stand the anticipation, of waiting to see them. Janice, I so hope that you like this little labor of LOVE!! :D I had such fun designing it & making it for you. My DH thought I should keep it for myself, but I told him, No Way!! :D He is so funny. Enjoy!!

Okay I am just finishing the binding and I should be able to amil out the quilt for Krazy4quilts in the next day or two depending on the weather! Last night I could see my grass tonight I have about 6 inches of wet heavy snow! YUCK!
But I really hope you like what I did for you! I have a few firsts in it! So here I sit with my fingers crossed until you get it!!!

Here is the beautiful quilt that buddy's mom sent me. She also sent a Quilting magazine and cute card. Looks like I am going to step up my game. These quilts that I am receiving are amazing!
