I'm in!! The bestest group of swappers and awesome leader! Everyone is so creative and skilled! I want to fill my sewing room walls with your creations!

I’m interested in joining!

I'm in again. Need to put my thinking cap on.

In again too!

We'd love to have you join us! We love getting new people to play with us!

Just make sure you send me all the info needed in a pm if and when you are ready with a wall hanging to mail.
Hope you join in and have a lot of fun! We have some fantastic swappers and all different skill levels are welcome!

Everyone loves what they get and all the Wall hangings are a work of art every time whether it is a simple design or a more involved design they are all well loved!

Welcome to the board, Sew piece full!! And, welcome to the swap... Hope you join us!

I've got a possibility for swap I'm considering...I think it's cool...and my own creation....fingers crossed!!

Well...even though I think I have something in mind for this next swap, I've got to get that blessed red and black quilt finished.....certainly will be glad when it is out of the way....it's all pieced except the corners, but I decided the original plans didn't work, so it's back to the drawing board....bummer!

And welcome to the swap Sew piece full...I'm sure you'll enjoy it...it's a super swap!

Anyone know what they are making yet? I think I will give it a couple of weeks to see if something will stand out to me as to what to make.

Yes, I think so, Anna...just need to decide on fabrics.... I'm winging it... :D

I am doing something called "National Quilter's Day" by Sindy Rodenmayer from fatcatpatterns.com
Thought I would start with something easy while my hands heal.

That is a darling WH! So many cute patterns on that site. I'd never heard of them before.

Don't push yourself too hard...:o

I suppose everyone is tired of hearing me fuss about the 'red and black' quilt, but I have to tell one more thing about it...besides the fact that I finally decided on the corners, so I can now proceed. Anyway, I have a Grandson that inspects (and admires) every quilt that I make, and he always says..."Grandma...if they don't want that one, I'll take it". Well, he looked at the red and black one and said "Grandma, if they don't want that one, I don't want it either". Guess I'm not the only one...lol!

Lol...priceless, granky. Very discerning young man... He knows what he likes....and dislikes. Lol..

I started cutting fabric for my WH...😜

I'll be glad when I can start on mine...I know what I want to do....but sometimes my imagination gets ahead of my ability to transform that imagination into reality...but I think I can manage this one....I hope.....

Grandkids can be so funny. I love their candor. It's really refreshing (most of the time) lol!
I started sewing. Recently I saw a mini quilt I like. The pattern is called periwinkle...fairly old pattern, but is done with
all kinds of fabrics and can really change the looks depending on your choices. Lately I think I've lost the ability to pick colors that go well together so I picked up a few compatibles to make it easier. Thought about scrappy too. I love scrappy. Rumbols, hope your healing process moves along nicely.

Thanks everyone for their comments on my hand recovery. I am doing well. Doctor gave me the all clear to do what I want now. I have one finger tip that is playing at being asleep and tingles are the only sensation. And one finger that refuses to straighten out (long middle). Otherwise, I have my hands back!!!
I have completed my wall hanging and letting Rhonda know. Good luck with all of yours.

Oh gracious, Rumbols!! Finished already? I've cut everything out but I haven't been able to sew a lot...I'm picking out pretties for my new home but hope to start it in the coming weeks.

Teen, as I am limited to not picking up anything over 5 pounds for three months (it has only been one), I can't do house work, dishes, etc. So I sew when I can. Besides, I had the pattern traced on fusible web before my surgery. The hardest part was picking up the iron. Now I am back to working on Christmas gifts. Teen, good luck with your wall hanging.

Red and Black is all pieced! Not quilted, but the top is now together...won't start quilting it until next week, so I can work on my wall hanging! There are two that I'm torn between, so have done a bit on both, thinking I could make up my mind that way but that didn't work so I'll have to do a bit more on each one...hmmmm....maybe I'll end up finishing both? Then I'll have a problem with which to send. I'm afraid one is going to end up being much larger than I intended (I seldom use a pattern so most of mine are done by the seat of my pants and sometimes they are a surprise even to me!)...but at least with two I'll have a choice......

Hi. New swapper here. I'm thinking this could be fun! I'm going to do my best to get my name on the "ready to mail" list. I already have an idea, fabrics selected, and have started cutting.

Welcome to the swap WheezyBreezy! I'm sure others will be here to welcome you too...they are probably busy with their projects. Right now I'm sort of in a 'shall I start over?' stage...not quite satisfied with my beginning...but not dissatisfied enough to toss it....

Welcome WheezyBreezy. We always like new quilters to join us. Everyone is so nice here.
I have finished my wall hanging and am working on my Christmas gifts. But I will be starting an new wall hanging soon for the next swap.

Having so much fun in the sun with this!

Oh wow! Is that something that can be quilted?...or is it not your wall hanging??? Fascinating at any rate....

It’s on fabric and is washable on broadcloth so hopefully the quilting will work... thinking of hand-stitching together I’ll be adding more to it.

It’s a photo process called Cyanotype that I really love. It’s like magic watching it transform in the water. A kit only costs $15on Amazon

Wonderful! You're going to challenge us all to try something new, it seems. Can't wait to see the finished product. I would love to try this but have so many things going on (that I wanted to try) that I'm out of room! Keep us up on the process, please......

I like this technique Sew piece full, and it looks like you’ve been doing it awhile. It’s beautiful. look forward to seeing how you quilt it.

I've seen this done but never tried it myself. Yours looks really pretty! Love seeing new ideas on here!!

I would like to join this one. I have the top finished. It is not holiday at all so if your looking for fall themed piece, you won't want mine. I am just afraid of doing something, then I like it...but am so scared the receiver will be disappointed.

There is no theme in this swap so don't worry about a fall theme. I know everyone who joins in will be pleased with whatever Wall Hanging they get. Just enjoy the swap!

You can show the top any time you want to and get feedback if it will make you feel better but I can assure you everyone will love it!

Just make sure you send me a pm when it is finished and ready to mail.

Addresses will go out at midnight on the last day of October.
