Hi Ladies,

Sue, thank you for jogging me! I do hope that you are all keeping well and safe.

I want to touch base with you all and ask how you would feel about re-instating the swap? I don't want to be premature but things are slowly starting to readjust here so I thought it might be a good time to put the wheels in motion. Of course we would set the mailing date so as to allow some time for everyone to finish their runner and get organised.

So, what do you all think????

Hugs

Caroline

I hope you continue this swap. I have enjoyed it for a long time. now. I was out of this last swap for personal reasons,then the virus hit. Hope everyone is doing well with that. I am starting to sell my doll clothes and a few other sewn items in a booth in town. I have worked on these things for the last few months. What I am getting at is I am out for this swap still but want to be in the next one. Hope this makes sense and helps you to decide what you will do. Everyone stay safe. Hugs Mary P.S. I look forward to seeing everyone's runner.

Hi, everyone! I am enjoying a little gardening, a little quilting, and making masks for family and friends. I would be interested in this go around whenever the deadline to mail. If we stay with the night or day theme, I have a table runner in my head I will try to execute. If for some reason it doesn’t pan out, I am close to finishing the cottage stars table runner I shared a photo of earlier. It would fit a night theme.

Hope everyone is doing well. Hugs.

I, too,am ready to restart when you're ready. I have my night theme all wrapped and ready for posting but can do another if you change from that. I have just stated sewing again.since cancelling the PC and T R . I am doing a block of the week mysyery with ice leopard . Apart from that, i ve been spending time and money on my house and garden. Now,with last week's rain I can say winter is here and I won't have to water I will weed instead. I love winter here when everything is green and a good vege garden and all my bulbs emerging.

I am ready to restart when everyone else is too! If we are staying with same theme I’m ready to go. If we’ve changed the theme, I’ll hustle! So glad to see you all back!

I am ready to go with the same theme .

Annaquilts 06-03-2020 08:18 AM

What is the theme and when are these due?
I feel like some one spun me around kind of like kids do with a blind fold and pin the tail on the donkey game. A bit of a confused disoriented feeling.

Caroline will start it again soon and I think we'll carry on with day or night theme as most of us had finished that one but it may change. Caroline has stared off the pin cushion one and this one will be soon.

Hello everyone! Me again! Did I miss the posting for the start of the next swap? I too feel like I've been blindfolded & spun around a few times! This has been such a crazy time! It is finally summer here, and slowly things are starting to open up a bit, but all the crazies who have been ignoring the precautions & continue to congregate, party & now go the beach - it is a constant worry, when the next wave will hit!.

Hoping someone posts with a status update!

Hi, Sue! Ive also checked periodically for updates but haven’t seen anything.

It is crazy times! We have tried to stick to the stay at home plan with few exceptions. I have a routine dental check up next week, and I’m wondering if I should delay it. My husband has gone for two haircuts in the past 5 months. I haven’t had a haircut since January. But have one scheduled for later this month. With
Covid cases rising, I’m thinking it isn’t a good time to relax. But most people around me don’t seem to agree. I was surprised our county fair board decided to go ahead with the fair in August. The fairgrounds are here in our little village. Then school starts! Has me worried. Can they say the second wave has hit if we haven’t managed to exit the first wave?


I’ve been cleaning and reorganizing my sewing room this week. It doubles as a family A/P and A/R room. Trying to minimize the overlap that happens regularly. It took me two days to get this one corner done. At this rate it may take me weeks! LOL


Haven’t been very motivated to sew for some reason. I am still making masks. But not even that every day.

Stay safe and well!
hugs
Bev
