I just recieved a pm from Thequilterslink. She said that she got the one I sent her, but she wasnt able to post a pic, so... Here it is.


ps. I just realized that you cant see it, but I quilted around all of the little shells. Also, I quilted waves in the border.

Here is the little gem I received for an extra swap this month from Jentica.

dettonlisas~that is an adorable Florida quilt..live there for 22 years before moving to Texas...know right where Mt. Dora is...my DS used to have alot of baseball tournaments in that area...I'm so excited to join this swap for February :)

Beautiful quilt Dettonlisas. Definitely makes me think of the beaches of Florida.

Welcome! I LOVE where I live. It is so quaint. You should come back and visit. We are having our local Quilt show in March. That would be the PERFECT time to visit! The Villages Quilt Show was TODAY!! I had a BLAST!!

Jentica... <3 <3 <3 that quilt, love the quilting, the colors, the fabric!!! Wonderful!

aha, question,,, is the quilt shop still open in Mt. Dora? love that town, and the quaint littel shops.. always hit the lqs, and the vitorian tea place. jacie

StitcherNKnitters, the January swap is closed, but we do this swap monthly. Feel free to join in the fun for February: http://www.quiltingboard.com/t-92303-1.htm

I hope MsShawn has received my little DQ safely, it should have crossed the water by now and be on its way to her.

Ok I suck!!!! I received this littel beauty last weekend in the midst of taking down Christmas decorations and it got lost in the meley. Then I was so tired I didn't remember to look for it. I am sooo sorry Lucinda. I love it and it has so much meaning. She sent with it a very detailed letter explaining all of the symbolism, some wonderful Oregon salt water taffy and a peice of lighthouse fabric. Thank you so much. I am sorry for the delay.

Wow! How beautiful!

I am anxious to hear from Janis that she got her quilt, it should have got there on Thursday.

Karen, so glad you got it, and that you like it. I still haven't received yours. Should receive it Monday. I was wondering why it hadn't got there yet.

Wonderful quilt Lucinda! You are so creative, I am always amazed of your out of the box thinking! G

I think it's just that I'm weird.LOL

I just finished mine for jan. Can't wait to see what my partner sends to me.
I think I could win the award for thinking "highest" out of the box for this month. Sorry but you will all have to wait untill my partner posts the quilt to find out what I am talking about... Ha! Ha! just a lil' cliffhanger, to keep everybody intrested.


Ray..

Ont- can't wait to see it.

Ok so I married a man that fits me to a "T". I just asked him when he mailed your quilt to you and it is still in his truck. Again I am so sorry. I have threatened his life and told him not to come home tomorrow unless it is mailed. you should see it mid week.

Yeah, I was wondering, got one fron NH in 3 days. I understand, my husband says I am that way, unless it is important to me.

Can't wait to see it partner, when i get it i will let you know,i can't post a pic,but if you can't my sister will ,so all will see,yours is going out tommorrow,from new england it's red and delis.

I received my doll quilt today from Ms Grace. It is so pretty. I love the alligator. She's from Louisiana. I've ask her to post a picture for me, I can't post for some reason lately. Thanks Ms Grace I love the quilt!!

According to the USPS, my Doll Quilt was delivered to mom-6 on Saturday January 22. She has been away, but I wanted to share with all.

The jar of Sweethearts represents NECCO originally in Cambridge MA and now in Revered MA, the jar of cranberries represent the cranberries grown in Southeastern Massachusetts, the radishes represnt the farm that was beind my house growing up and that I picked as a young kid and the ship in the bottle represent the sailing heritage of Massachsusetts.

Here's the pic. Glad you liked it. :-D

I love the Mass quilt!! But then, I love them all. Great work everyone. I love seeing the originality.

The last two are very cute. Sure love the creativity of the mass quilt and the alligator is just too cute.

More cute ones! Ya'll really had your thinking caps on for this challenge. They're all so original and beautifully made. Great job, everyone!

That alligator is the best! He is so cute!

Susan took pics before she sealed the package.
I can't take all of the credit, I have to thank GOOGLE earth for some of my resorces.

Ray..

Thank you all! The alligator was fun to make. :-)

978gray,
I love the jar quilt!

More fantastic quilts!

Karen, I finished your doll quilt tonight, not sure it will make it to the post office tomorrow due to predicted icy conditions in the morning. I am really happy with how it turned out, I think it is my best one yet! Hope you agree when you see it. Sorry it is a little late.

Ray,Great I sent yours out today,but we are having terrible snow storms,with ice and snow 18 -20 inches added to 24 inch,so i think the mail will be slow :(

18-20" added to 24"? Wow, you got snow! Stay safe as you can and I will be praying you don't lose your power. God bless you. Linda :-D

Had a lovely surprise when I got home from work today - this little beauty was waiting just for me. Thank you so much MsShawn, it is gorgeous - both sides too - decorated with such pretty buttons. You did a fantastic job! :)

How pretty! Love it.

I got my wonderful little doll quilt from candi! It is Mickey Mouse and has Have a magical day on it. It is so cute, and makes me smile when i look at it. She also sent some oranges fabric and a valentine note pad of paper. I'm hoping she can post pictures my wonderful quilt from her and also of the one I'm sending her, as I can't post pictures. I hope to be able to get out tomorrow and send hers to her. It is almost finished. Yes, I'm slow.
Janis

Glad it arrived safely, Janis. Here is a picture of the quilt.
