I guess you know that you guys are really making it difficult for the rest of us :roll: :roll:

Elizabeth A. 01-03-2009 04:04 PM

Really Joyce!?! :cry: We don't mean to! Just do your best, I'm certain yours will be beautiful too. Shoot, be it fabric selections, piecing abiltiy, what-have-you our skills are all different that's what will make this so great. :)

thimblebug6000 01-03-2009 04:14 PM

Those look great, I especially like the snowman that is part of JOY. What book is that pattern in? Or is it an original... so cute....gotta love snowmen!

Tiffany 01-03-2009 06:38 PM

I love the block with the snowmen all lined up in a row with the strip of red fabric above and green fabric below. Is that a published pattern or is someone just really talented? Where can I find it so I can make one for me?

Oh those are so great! I love the mittens!

sewnsewer2 01-03-2009 08:10 PM

How cute!!

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

The board has been so busy I can hardly keep up. How is everyone doing?

mgrhs 01-07-2009 04:09 AM

Tell Mr Snowman that if he doesn't behave, you will take out the hairdryer and use it on him. lol

sandpat 01-07-2009 04:43 AM

My my...Terri...that is one nasty threat :shock:

Elizabeth A. 01-07-2009 06:00 AM

LOL! :)

tlrnhi 01-07-2009 06:02 AM

Bet it works! lmao

LoriJ 01-07-2009 06:14 AM

Tiffany, the row of snowman is how the fabric was printed. Aren't they cute? I added the red and green fabrics to make the square the right size. I saw the marshmellow snowmen in Joanns before Christmas and bought some knowing I'd use it somewhere. I still have plenty if you'd like to trade something for some.

LoriJ 01-07-2009 06:15 AM

Thimblebug. I have a Christmas book, let me look at it when I get home and I'll give you the title. The joy snowman is the main part of a wallhanging.

LoriJ 01-07-2009 06:16 AM


Oh those are so great! I love the mittens!
Thanks Renee, DD drew them for me.

I know that all the rows will be great. That's the fun part, is having a variety of blocks when we're all done.

thimblebug6000 01-07-2009 06:20 PM

Thanks Lori, I've looked through a few on-line searches but didn't come up with the Joy one. You've done a great job on your rows, I'm not in on it this year, but sure looks like a lot of fun.

OK -- here is my row. My theme is "Christmas Cats". This didn't turn out exactly the way I thought it would! I'm not exactly happy with it but need to quit obsessing and move on to other stuff (unless someone has suggestions besides dumping it in the trash):roll: :roll:

Joyce I think it's so sweet! I like how you have the snowflake background! :) It makes me smile.

sandpat 01-08-2009 03:57 PM

Now Joyce, just why oh why would you think that is not just perfect???? I think you will love this when it had been added to and others have their opportunity to "play" with it! I personally love your cats-pieced and otherwise. Are those appliqued or embroidered? ...and the cat that is now sitting in my lap and making it really difficult to type says she likes it too. (She would like to come play with those cats) :roll:

Anyway...it is very cute and I think you will find that you like it better with each row addition!

sewjoyce 01-08-2009 03:59 PM

Sandpat, you and Elizabeth are so sweet!!! Thanks for being in our cheering section!!!

(Sandpat, the black cats are embroidered -- I think they are a little small but I enlarged the pattern until it wouldn't fit in my hoop and this is the size it turned out....)

MsSage 01-08-2009 04:07 PM

Mine's going tomorrow, gotta finish the label. :-o

Elizabeth A. 01-12-2009 01:03 PM

Glad to hear it Lori, mine will go out this week also. :D

OMG ! You are mailing out your blocks already. I HAVE to get in and get busy. :oops: I feel a deadline approaching.... :(

purplemem 01-12-2009 04:04 PM

Babeegirl
Just awesome! You have inspired me to finish my row.
I have 3 of 6 blocks done....off to the sewing machine!

babeegirl 01-12-2009 04:07 PM

oh no...pounds head on desk...forgot another bleepin' label! I guess I know what I'll be doing tonight :) why can I not remember labels?

sewjoyce 01-12-2009 04:54 PM

I went to JoAnn's today and found a pen that will write on fabric. I'm going to send around a page of Inkjet Fabric along with the pen so everyone can write whatever they want. Then I'll sew it on the back when I get it done. Hopefully (depending on weather), I'll get all of it in the mail tomorrow. :roll:

Elizabeth A. 01-14-2009 06:17 AM

Ladies I've been marking these rows as they go out in the mail. Please let me know, or post hear that they arrived safely to you, so I can mark them down as "arrived safely". :D Thanks.

I'm off to go wash fabric! :D

mgrhs 01-15-2009 04:33 PM

I received babeegirl's row....now I have to figure out how to make some candy.....

mrsj82 01-15-2009 05:33 PM

*starts to hyperventilate* I almost completely forgot about this!!! *Digs around in her stash* I simply have no idea what my row is going to be...and I've only got like two weeks left!

*Panics*

Everyone's rows are so great! I don't know how I can possibly compare!
