Elizabeth,
I posted on the wrong thread...Can you move my post to this thread?
My row will be in the mail today and on its way to you.

Purplemem's comes to me next. Theme: Tradtional Elegant Christmas


Purplemem said:
Finally! My Row is complete:

I have 6 star blocks all in reds, greens, creams and golds, as many shades as I could find.

Your row does not have to be the same kind of block, but I would like you to stay with those colors please.

Happy Sewing!

Knot Sew 01-22-2009 03:58 PM

I love the colors...good choices :D and great design

mrsj82 01-24-2009 10:06 PM

Elizabeth's row arrived today safe and sound! It's more beautiful in person than in the pictures!!!

BTW...what would you like me to do for my name on the labels? I'm not entirely sure what I'm supposed to do with that...

PS..I LOVE getting squishy packages in the mail! Beats bills any day of the week....

Thanks I needed a bit of flattery this morning. ;)

For the labels, you can include your name and home town(city and state).
Ways to add your name to a label:

writing it with a prigma pen or other permanent marking "thing" just check to be sure the ink wont run.

embroidery floss: simply write your name lightly in pencil or other "disappearing" medium (your choice). Stitch carefully over your writings to create a eye popping bit of embroidery.

or you can pop it into an embroidery machine, your choice.

This is Barbsbus row, her theme is Snowmen whimsy and pretty. I just love this, such a cute idea to "grow the snowman" :D :D

Okay cool! I'll definitely sign the block. I'll post pictures of your row as soon as I can figure out what I'm going to do to it next! LOL

Yeah! I finished my row and it isn't even the deadline yet! I don't know what to do with Santa's eyes so he will go without for now. Maybe someone will know what to do with him? :lol:

I will make a label and then it will be sent to purplemem. If this next storm holds off and we don't have too much snow, I'll get it to the post office tomorrow.

This is exciting! I am anxious to see everyone's :lol: :lol: :lol:

sewjoyce 01-25-2009 04:54 PM

2 Doods-- that awesome. How about black buttons for the eyes?

mrsj82 01-25-2009 06:33 PM

That is simply fabulous!!! Can't wait to see it in person!

purplemem 01-25-2009 06:40 PM

So Great! Are you sure it comes to me next? I am very excited!!! :D
I just love it!

Can I keep it?

PURPLEMEM-
I checked the list and you are the next name under mine. So does it go to you? That's what I thought...if not then where would I send it? Yup, I just went to the other post and we send to the person under our name. So tag you're it!

How about I get this one back???-I have things planned for yours :!: If there is a block that you like-let me know and I will make you one.
:lol:

purplemem 01-25-2009 09:49 PM

I thought we shipped all of them to Elizabeth...Am I shipping to her because her name is under mine??? :oops:

Some days I'm a little slower than others... :roll:

mrsj82 01-25-2009 09:51 PM

Okay so to put my two cents in...you ship to the next person's name under yours...maybe I don't get it either...if that's the case, then mine is being sent to someone it wasn't supposed to be sent to! I'm slow all the time so no worries! :wink:

Elizabeth A. 01-26-2009 07:58 AM

purplemem - if they all came to me I'd be a crazy person, and however could I stand to part with them? :D You send to me because my name was under yours. Everyone has been sending their rows to exactly the right places. :D

2 doods what beautiful work! :D I wonder who will have the lucky Santa answer?

I could do that. (After it's quilted. ) I don't have any little kids around that I have to worry about choking.

OH PURPLEMEM- it is on it's way. I mailed it after work today. (Monday)

purplemem 01-26-2009 01:22 PM

I'm really looking forward to it. As a matter of fact, when I got a squishy package today I was disappointed it wasn't the Holiday Row... :evil:

Oh well, something to look forward to tomorrow. :)

Tommorow??? It has to come all the way from Oregon. It will take a couple of tomorrows to get to Tennessee :lol:

Elizabeth A. 01-26-2009 06:30 PM

:D That's cute Colletta! I can hardly wait to watch! :D

LoriJ 01-27-2009 05:53 AM

mrsj: received your squishy package yesterday. now to let it sit and speak to me. I have some ideas, we'll see

mrsj82 01-27-2009 09:49 AM

That's awesome Lori! I sure hope you don't laugh too hard at my slaphappy job of a row! lol

Elizabeth's is speaking to me too...I've got a couple ideas...but these things end up having minds of their own.

I can't wait to see what you come up with! :lol: :lol:

zyxquilts 01-27-2009 10:45 AM

Wow! Y'all are doing great stuff!!! :D
I finished my row & am going to the Post Office at lunch time to send it on to Babeegirl. I put a card in with mine for everyone to sign - didn't even think of a label until just now re-reading this thread! Sheesh! But I can scan the card in & make my label from that!
While taking pics of my row, the batteries died in the camera & I need to search for the xfer cable too, but I will eventually get some pics posted.
Away we go! :D

I'm happy to say it finally has come together and hopefully I can get photos to cooperate. My theme Christmas trees. Will send to Ruth Camp tomorrow.

mrsj82 01-27-2009 11:42 PM

These rows are so fantastic! I cannot believe I didn't think of putting a card or anything in mine! LoriJ, before you send mine on, could you slip a peice of paper or something into it so that I have everyone's names? I'd really appreciate you helping out my spaz moment...:-)

Elizabeth A. 01-28-2009 05:55 AM

Great Job Jan, I love those trees!

sandpat 01-28-2009 05:57 AM

Elizabeth A. 01-29-2009 05:16 AM

Jan that looks great, is it your sewing machine that sews that out? If so you're amazingly good at holding those lines straight!

What pattern aren the kitties? :D I think they are quite cute sitting up like that. :D

sandpat 01-29-2009 05:40 AM

Ms Sage, your kitties are darling! And I can see the mouse tails...that is really cute and I think they only need tails...that way the cats are facing away from you.... very cute!

MsSage 01-29-2009 06:09 AM

Great idea about them being backside. I might do atleast one that way.........who knows they will tell me when they get home.
The pattern is from "Christmas cats and dogs" Janet KimeMy LQS had it and I was looking through it and kept remarking on all the patterns I loved in it and I got it for a song.

Elizabeth A. 01-29-2009 07:24 AM

:D The backside! That's cute Sandpat, typical cat behavior! :D

mrsj82 01-29-2009 08:27 AM
