Great idea ladies...I'll have to go digging and see what I can come up with. I keep wanting to go 30s on these.

Oooh, pretty! :thumbup:

Very pretty Pattis

Very pretty! Gives me some good ideas.

With only 11 of us in this, shall I extend the sign up for another couple of weeks?

Yes please extend the deadline. I am almost finished with my projects :!: :!: :!:

YEAH! That make a even dozen!

Deadline is not till May 31 and blocks not due till June 30.

So, does this mean that you are going to join us??

Horray!!!! Sapdoggie has joined us!!!

Thank you for extending,my fabric is washed,but with my tooth that is as far as I got

Yes and I was naughty and slipped this one in on you as well....

Be careful Deb - Santa is still watching :wink: :wink: :wink:

And he knows I only have the best intentions of making all quilters be able to enjoy the whole qulting process. I give an outlet for their creativity, which in turn lets them spread joy to others when the item is gifted. (how is that for being a 'brown -eyed girl'?)

I would like to join in the fun!

I have all mine cut out, including all 144 of the leaves... whew!! I just need to sew them all together.

I will send you a PM Deb.

Cool, we are increasing in number.

Yes, we are increasing...I am so pleased that some NEW members are joining. Please don't be shy....we really are a very supportive bunch of addicts...... Just ask Pattis47 or karen or crafty.....or material girl or sapdoggie....

Yes we are, Deb is very supportive,I've almost quit a few times,but she gives you a little nudge and your back on track,THANKS DEB

Yep, and if the gently little knudge doesnt work, she has a cattle prod to keep things on track..... :roll: :roll: :lol: :lol: :thumbup: But, sersiously, if you need help just ask, we will all try to help you. These have always been fun and rewarding for me. I have tried patterns that I would not have done otherwise and found I was able to do them.

We have another new person who has joined....rfbrazell... must be the pollen in the air is encouraging more to join in! Love it!

Thanks for letting me in Deb. Here is the picture of the butterfly quilt I did for our guest room, The dresden flower swap will go so good with the butterfly quilt in the guest room.
Robert

Great looking quilt :thumbup: :thumbup: :thumbup:

Robert, your quilt hangers are delighteful,are they yours?

WELCOME! Love the butterfly quilt! Cute quiltholders too! Deb is a great host!

I agree, are they available to order online???? do they come in different sizes and hair color??? :lol: :lol: :roll: :roll:

Robert glad you can join. Love the quilt and of course the holders.

Yeah, a man has actually taken time to stop and smell the flowers with us...as it may be.

My trial flower.

I have tried 4 times to post this pic...SORRY

??? will it work? So happy it posted! I haven't made up my mind on the leaves.

Nice flower.

I have all my petals cut out and one set the points sewn. Will try to work on them but I am trying so hard to finish this van quilt that needs to get done. Oh those pesky details are taking so long to embroider on and stitch down. I have to teach an applique class tomorrow night and will be using my dresdan plate center as an example of appliqueing down. Now isn't that clever to incorporate my time to benefit getting these blocks done.

Karen
Love the colors - yes it will work for me!

Yes my grandkids. We have raised them the last 5 years with our son. He went thru a nasty divorce and their mom went to court and said she didn't want them. So we told them to come and we would work it out. It has been the best thing we ever did. They sure brought life back in to our uncomplecated life. LOL
R

You gals are just a hoot! you make me laugh. they do come in all sizes and colors.......unfortunatly they you can't order online.....lol
R

I've already found that out. She is so responsive and encourgaing.
What a great way to start a swap.
R

That's gorgeous, Karen! Hope I get one! :thumbup:

How awesome to have a guy in the swap! :-D

Since I can't order online, I'll just have to wait for the catalogue to arrive..... :lol: :lol:
