I wanna play again but the themes don't "speak" to me -- unless I do a turtle quilt (which I would prolly keep!)
hmmmmmmm..... |
I will do one or two for July. Moosegirl
|
Ok I am in! international is fine
this month will make a year that I have been doing the doll quilt swap. The doll quilt swap is what got me started on the forum. This will be my last one for a while as I have some other projects I wouls like to work on. I may be back for more later though. Thanx Chele for all your work in coordinating these swaps! |
I'd like to sign up. This would be first doll quilt swap. I'll send you a PM.
|
Thanks for signing up everyone! [nonchalantly twisting 978gray's arm] We have another good turnout with lots of doll quilt swap veterans and some new faces too. Yay!
jetnica, the themes are entirely optional. You can do your own thing. Make two turtle quilts! :) |
Sign me up, please. This month's was fun and I want to do it again! Love the ole red, white & blue! Thanx Chele
|
I think I'm going to do one of the themes this month... idk yet...
|

Chele: I dug through a boat full of fat quarters in the basement of Lolly's in Shipshewana with my three new BFF's searching for the fabric for this swap. I'm in!! (USA only please.) Star, did you take a picture of that boat?

Good job laparshall! Thank you for giving your all for the doll quilt swap! We do what we have to do. ;) Did you talk your BFF's into joining? I know STAR swaps, but you two need to recruit the others! Let me know if you want my secret arm-twisting technique.
Speaking of victims, anyone else interested in having a blast swapping doll quilts? Sign-up closes June 30. Quilts need to mailed by July 30. |
Chele: I'll nudge the other two. See what happens, if necessary, I will give your arm twisting techniques a try.
|
no I didn't get a pic of that boat I was too busy looking through all those FQ's!!
|
Please sign me up. I just finished Karen's for June. Just need to get in the mail to her. I'll do the red, white and blue theme. I can ship anywhere.
|
Sign me up!
|
Sign me up again please...I prefer NOT to do international.
Margie :) |
Just got my summer inspiration! all ready now -- just gotta finish this crazy bumble bee quilt that I'm not at all into...
Edited to add: I now have two ideas -- I could do two swaps if you need/want me to. Off to work on that bumblebee quilt -- I wanna finish it this weekend!! |

Red, white, blue--think I was in a r/w/b strip swap, should have something in my stash, now to narrow ideas down and get it done before the end of July. Kathy in Colo
|
Chele, Please enter me in the red, white blue July doll quilt swap. I would like to swap within the USA. I am Kathy in Colo will do PM now.
|
Ok sign me up. I tried to resist. But, just can't do it.
|
For these doll quilts what kind of batting do most of you use? Do you use cotton, poly, poly/cotton blend, or a layer of flannel?

I use warm and natural.
|
I also use whatever I find in the scrap bin, but sometimes I have to consider the quilt design. If the intent is to hang on the wall, then I try to use the cotton batting to keep it a bit stiffer. If it has a lot of pieces and I plan to do a lot of stitching on it, then maybe the thinner bat will do. If it has a lot of applique, a puffy bat makes it look awkward and stiff in places. So I guess it's just personal preference or whatever's on hand.

Sign me up! US only, please.

I'm ready. Sign me up, please. I've only done five but am addicted. They are such fun!!
