I'm so glad you're patient....but I'm NOT! LOL!!! I want to get this done! (I think I'm gonna love it.) :)

Chigger Holler Quilter 03-26-2011 12:12 PM

Brenda, It looks as though my center will be ready to go to Linda the first of the week! All I have to do is stitch around the applique pieces as it's done! Yipee!:) Have you sent Debbra's center to me? I looked at posts on the 18th and it said you were sending it to me. (just wondering if it's on it's way...hopefully not held up by USPS!) Please let me know....Thanks

brenda21 03-26-2011 01:43 PM

Connie, Haven't sent it yet....Debbra and I are trying to decide something with hers so I still have it...I'll let you know when it's in the mail :)

Crafty3790 03-26-2011 03:16 PM

Brenda when I finish yours who does it go to I have what Im doing all planned I just need to wash the fabric.

brenda21 03-26-2011 03:23 PM

It comes back to me...it's all finished after you crafty :)

Crafty3790 03-26-2011 03:50 PM

How exciting.

brenda21 03-26-2011 03:54 PM

Crafty~I received yours in the mail from Debbra.....we're still *speaking* with each other to decide what we are doing next...the center and I both think that a trip to the two LQSs on Monday to visit other fabrics will help us :thumbup:

Crafty3790 03-26-2011 03:56 PM

Your too funny.

MegsAnn 03-26-2011 10:55 PM

I'm center-less currently, so if anybody has one done that I haven't added to yet, feel free to pass it on. :)

Oh, and sorry I haven't been keeping up with the pics guys. My camera was down for many weeks so I got out of the habit of taking pictures of everything... even though it's working just fine now.

Chigger Holler Quilter 03-29-2011 03:21 PM

My center is officially in the mail to Linda!

lfw045 03-29-2011 04:45 PM

Hot Dog!! Where is the picture?

Chigger Holler Quilter 03-30-2011 06:06 PM

Problem is....can't post picture til I find the cord for my camera! I'm going to town tomorrow so if I don't find it before then I'll make disk of pictures and then can download and post it. So, I guess not til tomorrow! sorry!

Ok...here goes! The colors are off a little. The background is a pale yellow and over all a little brighter.

very pretty COnnie :)

Crafty3790 03-31-2011 01:31 PM

Beautiful I love it.

lfw045 03-31-2011 03:30 PM

Ohhhhhhhh myyyyyyyyyyyy! I hope I can do it justice!

Chigger Holler Quilter 03-31-2011 07:17 PM

Hey, Ladies....I'm not worried at all! I've seen your work already! :)
I 'goofed' when I did the applique and didn't cut out just the outline fuseable web for the large green pieces so it's stiff! Rats...will I never learn? Grumbling....but I still like it and none of you will have to deal with that part so at least that's good. Hope you all have a good weekend. I'm looking forward to receiving the next center....it'll be Debbra's, right?

brenda21 03-31-2011 07:45 PM

Chigger it will probably be Linda's...we had a little fabric situation that we're dealing with...it's a long story...but I'm technically not finished with Debbra's yet

sistahdebbra 03-31-2011 10:19 PM

Chigger, that's a nice center, lot of color options too. let me get to brainstorming - working on the star block, hope Megsann will be please with what I'm doing. Will post picture before sending to next on the list.

Chigger Holler Quilter 04-01-2011 05:34 AM

The star center is so pretty! I know you'll have fun with it! I know we'll all be watching for pictures. :)
Debra...did you make the doll in your Avitar? I love her! I once attended a doll class by Elinor Peace Bailey and I was hooked! I haven't made many dolls....they don't seem to be very popular in my family....but I did gain a lot of respect for doll makers and for the different personalities they express in their work!
I may just have to get back into making a few! lol

brenda21 04-01-2011 11:32 AM

Oh boy Crafty....your center and I went to the LQS today and we had FUN!!! We mingled with several fabrics until we found that we thought was AWESOME!!!! I'm very happy with and hope you will be too...will be working on it this weekend :)
hugs ya'll :)

Crafty3790 04-01-2011 04:06 PM

lfw045 04-01-2011 04:27 PM

brenda21 04-01-2011 05:55 PM

Ok, have to share....my youngest son, who is a senior in high school, got a call from one of the college's that has been watching him (he plays baseball) and they are sending him a letter of intent to play for them this week....YAYAYAYAYAY...doing the happy dance :)

lfw045 04-02-2011 09:32 AM

Got your beautiful center in the mail today, Chigger! I'll have to go shopping but I think I know exactly what I am going to do with it! :^)

sistahdebbra 04-03-2011 01:48 PM

Brenda...what awesome news! One of the happiest things in my life has been watching my young boys turn into men! :) I know you're one proud mom!

Chigger Holler Quilter 04-07-2011 03:57 PM

Ok....so I'm waiting for a center!!! Tap....tap.....tap.........!!!
I'd like to have it asap because I'd really like to be able to get it done before I leave for WA the first part of May. This will be the 3rd round for me. The clock is ticking and even if it comes tomorrow that doesn't give me much time. Please............if I don't get it like ASAP I won't be able to work on it til the first part of June.

Crafty3790 04-11-2011 02:35 PM

Brenda I posted pics of your quilt.I had the same brown as the last row and used the swirls for the corners to tie it all together. I appliqued on the corners.I hope you like it its going out tomorrow.

sistahdebbra 04-11-2011 03:44 PM

@Crafty3790 - where's the pics posted??????

Chigger Holler Quilter 04-11-2011 07:31 PM

Crafty, that border sure sets Brenda's quilt off nicely! Great job! :thumbup:
Brenda....I still have not received a center to work on!!! Were you able to get it in the mail?
According to the schedule I should be finished with putting the 3rd border on and have it in the mail by April 15, right? Well it's not going to happen cuz it's not here yet! LOL...hope owner is the understanding sort! :wink:
Oh, well, maybe it'll come tomorrow! :?:

sistahdebbra 04-11-2011 07:47 PM

I'm all for that!
It'd be nice to post here as well as the other "post center pics here"..it's easier to find just ours here. I enjoy looking at all of them and am always switching back and forth!
So...I guess that's one yea vote. :)

Crafty3790 04-13-2011 03:01 AM

I will post it later today.
