Hello Ladies,

Welcome Aboard Ripped on Scotch, msdb159, lavandula, Dorrell Ann
and sewnmom. Can't wait to get to know all of you. Has anyone thought of a name for our group yet?

Mish :0)

lavandula girl 08-16-2010 02:49 PM

A name?! I haven't even thought of a center yet! :lol: Have you guys gotten yours ready?

MISHNJIM 08-16-2010 03:10 PM

I have an idea for my center...BUT...It's still in the works.

Ripped on Scotch 08-16-2010 03:51 PM

Hello ladies. Looks like I'm the international part of this group. My center is just about finished I'll post photos soon

MISHNJIM 08-16-2010 04:04 PM

Can't wait to see it!!!

MISHNJIM 08-17-2010 02:12 PM

Where are the rest of my girls???? Would love to hear from everyone.

lavandula girl 08-17-2010 04:41 PM

I think we have at least one really new member... hope they aren't shy! So... I think I'm going to use batiks for my center, although I also have some really cool black and white fabrics. Oh, the decisions!

msdb159 08-17-2010 05:12 PM

I guess I'm the really new member and a new quilter. I thought this would be fun and that I would learn a lot. I've been sewing since my age was a single digit. Can't wait to get started, my center is done a disappearing 9 patch. I will post a picture as soon as I figure out how to do it. If all else fails I get my daughter to do it for me.

lavandula girl 08-17-2010 06:09 PM

Yay! Glad you're here! Word to the wise on posting photos... DON'T preview your post once you've attached the pics... that makes them not show up. Weird, right? I'm really looking forward to this!

MISHNJIM 08-18-2010 01:57 AM

Just a reminder to put your center picture here on this thread: http://www.quiltingboard.com/t-59819-1.htm

I think I finally figured out what my center is going to be. With help from my quilting genius. YAY!!!

lavandula girl 08-18-2010 07:31 PM

What about "Three's A Charm" for a name?

lavandula girl 08-21-2010 06:45 PM

I saw Dorrell Ann's center on the thread... is she the only one of us who has posted yet? I should have mine done in a couple days...

MISHNJIM 08-21-2010 06:57 PM

I just saw it too...I like it. I finally figured out what I'm gonna do so I might get started on it tomorrow if not then sometime this week. But I still need to hear from a couple more ladies.

Ripped on Scotch 08-22-2010 04:13 AM

Mine center is just about finished....just a couple more things to stitch down. I'm hoping to finish it up tonight and post something for you all tomorrow. However, I broke my finger so we will see how long i can sew with it on. Thank goodness I only have this splint for 3 -5 more weeks! and I don't have to wear it all the time which helps.

MISHNJIM 08-22-2010 05:01 AM

OMG...What happen to your finger?

I was playing baseball and took a line drive off the tips of my fingers, bent two fingers back and broke one knuckle. So now I have a lovely splint on it but at least its just a splint and I can take it off..... i just have to tape my fingers together when I'm not wearing it

tlrnhi 08-22-2010 10:10 AM

Those who have International addresses, PM your reciever and ask if it's ok to mail ANY rounds that are done early. We know it can take a bit longer to get from overseas to US.

Those who are US, ONLY mail this round early. The rest of the rounds PLEASE mail on the mail dates. If you will be traveling during a mail date, PM your reciever and ask if it is ok to send early.

We don't want tops to be piled up on people with everyone mailing early.

Yea!!

the sewing isn't really an issue at least straight lines aren't. but of course I wanted to do some paper peicing and I shouldn't have done that!

lavandula girl 08-27-2010 07:22 AM

You know how things randomly pop into your head as you are driving all over the place on errands? Well, this morning, I got to wondering... is this the kind of swap where members sometimes send little gifts along with the center? Like the doll quilt swap seems to be?

MISHNJIM 08-27-2010 11:12 AM

I don't think so...Never heard of that before...BUT...We do still need to come up with a name for our group.

lavandula girl 08-27-2010 02:34 PM

Well, I already made one suggestion, but there were no takers. What about The Sisterhood of the Travelling Quilts? Hahaha! :lol:

Ripped on Scotch 08-27-2010 05:44 PM

I can't think of anything off the top if my head

Ripped on Scotch 08-28-2010 04:56 PM

I just posted my center.....page 11 if you want to look.

Thanks. Good thing I had it started before I broke my finger!

lavandula girl 08-30-2010 04:42 AM

I saw Sewnmom's just this morning... I like all the centers so far, but THAT one really spoke to me! I am currently going through a scrappy phase, so it looks a lot like things I've been creating myself. Looking forward to each one of our quilts!

MISHNJIM 08-30-2010 03:15 PM

Okay...Let's vote on these 2 names:

Three's A Charm or Sisterhood of the Traveling Quilts

Everyone's center is looking good. I have mine done but having a friend doing some finishing touches on it. Then I will share what mine looks like.

Ripped on Scotch 08-30-2010 06:40 PM

Between those two the sisterhood option. The other one sounds fluke there are only 3 people in it but that just my opinion.

msdb159 08-30-2010 08:11 PM

I vote for Sisterhood of the traveling Quilts.
Dawnette

sewnmom 08-30-2010 08:30 PM

MISHNJIM 08-31-2010 01:52 AM

sewnmom 08-31-2010 06:13 PM
