Hi Lori - This is Gail Brown, newbie and friend of Rosemary. I want to participate in this. It sounds like fun! Rosemary is sending you my information because I am Technically challanged. Can't wait to get started.

Bluequilter 12-23-2011 07:26 PM

Please sign me up as well!

Havplenty 12-23-2011 07:28 PM

i wanna say yes but i feel like i need to regroup this next swap. my swap tub is overflowing with stuff plus i think i still got stuff in bags and boxes that couldnt fit in the tub so i need to participate to clear up some room. i'm feeling brain dead right now from all the chain sewing i have been doing. and i like to make handmade things for my swap partners.

i'm gonna give myself up to the signup deadline to decide. perhaps new brain cells would have regenerated by then.:D

maggy 12-23-2011 08:11 PM

Just signed up,enjoy the swaps

Lori Peercy 12-23-2011 09:09 PM

Havplenty it wouldn't be the same without you so I hope your brain cells regenerate fast! Take your time and think about it and let me know.

Lori Peercy 12-23-2011 09:19 PM

Welcome to all the new people signing up for the January
SP swap. You will have fun.


Lori I did a search for the "Happy Daisy Quilt Pattern" and
found several different patterns so I am not sure what the
one you are looking for looks like. I will post some links
though soon as I complete my search. AND I will be looking
for the FREE designs..


Now don't these look cute and more important FUN?
I am trying to figure out a "fun" way of incorporating
these into the swaps to be like Lori's cat earrings that
will be a "traveling" from swapper to swapper.

It would be a "SNOWBALL FIGHT" via mail. Don't know
how to do this just yet will have to think about it some
more.

Any ideas?

I have FINALLY finished the embroidery designs of the
sleigh and 9 reindeer.

Will post pictures once I have them "cleaned" up (meaning
the removal of jump threads and stabilizer).

What surprised me the most is I did not run out of the gold
thread because if I had I would have had to switch to another
brand and shade of gold as the one I used was a discontinued
color from RA.

I just bought a new pin cushion book that are for mugs. The designs are sheets of papers. I can scan them into my computer where they can be printed as documents. Its about 10 pages. If anyone wants some new ideas for pin cushions, I can just e-mail it to you. There are 5 designs.

Thank You gmloves2 quilt.

Just check out the old swaps. I feel like home made goodies are the best,like pot holders.pin cushions,mugrugs etc. Everyone loves fabric,Fat Quarters are great. You don't need to send alot of yardage.sewing themed items are good-earrings,nail files with sewing items printed on them. We can always use extra sewing needles,seam rippers,thread etc. Just have fun and be sure to post once in awhile with our playing.You will get a list with some interest of your partner. That helps alot with colors,candy, things not liked also.Hope you join in page one has the info to send to Lori. Good luck and have fun! Mary

Is anyone else having posting problems?

TOOMANYUFO'S 12-25-2011 09:50 AM

Merry Christmas Everyone! Have a Great Day! Welcome to all the new swappers. It is snowing here and there is so much vapor on the water it looks like fog. I guess I will stay tucked in my new quilt a friend gave me for Christmas. Every time I saw her working on this quilt, I told her they were my colors and I would ask her from time to time how near my quilt was finished. I couldn't believe it when I recieved it for a Christmas gift. I was just fooling with her, but she said that she would not feel like she could give it to anyone else, since it was made with my colors~pink & green. She said that I would appreciate it the most. It is a beautiful quilt. I told her that it was a gift and a half. It took her a lot of time and money. She even had it longarmed for me. It was the most thoughtful gift ever.

Questions for everyone
 
1 Attachment(s)
I have a few questions to ask you all about some of YOUR
sewing/quilting/cutting gadgets, notions, fabric, and rulers.

First let me say that I am BACK to trying to clean my stupid
sewing room. I got started on it, but didn't get it finished before
my youngest daughter came home for a few days of her winter
break from college. So now that she is gone (again), I am TRYING
to make sure it gets done before my classes start up on January 17.

In the process of this cleaning I have came across MANY things that
I know I use and was wondering if anyone else uses them also or would
use if they had?

What kind of ruler(s) do you have/use? (brand and sizes).

Do you like "panel" fabrics such as tree skirts, aprons, tote bags etc?

Do you use the "color" marking tape for rulers? (called "glow line tape,
see picture below).

What kind of gadgets and/notions do YOU like to use?

Does anyone like/use fabric scraps? with or without fusible on it (or both)?

I am TRYING to "downsize" some of my sewing room stuff that I have
multiples of (EXCEPT my scissors and rotary cutters), and thought about
maybe adding items or so to the the SP boxes and/or RAK.


Omnigrid Glow Line Tape for rulers

Louise, I like the panels and am looking to get a point trimmer set to use... About the only thing I use, have a friend who collects scraps, but I make enough to give her mine... Looking for Batiks in red, blue gren pink and yellow... but that's about all I am looking to get eventually..

Merry Christmas everyone..

Diana Lynne 12-26-2011 02:35 AM
