That is remarkable! I love it and I'll bet your partner is over the moon.

JenniePenny, Your little doll quilt creation is AWESOME! (The best idea, removable panels...hmm...sounds like a great gift to make for a grandchild. Changeable art. Did I share I'm going to be a new grandma in October.!!! My first grandbaby.)

Love the little Red, Black and White quilt also. It's so graphic and bold. I love the precise piecing. Beautiful!

Donna so glad you are having fun. This swap is so addictive.:thumbup:

L*O*V*E the mug rug with the owl that Judith received!!

congrats, judith1005! i have my first, and it is the most fun ever!!!
btw--a little slowed down on the dq. looking to mail on monday!!

My two dq went out yesterday to Nancia and nanakathy55 hope you like them.
Some very nice dq being shown.
Getting ready to plant the field today so off to work i go lol

Swap out little quilts. How great...now I know what I'm doing for Christmas gifts.
I belong to the BOM on site which are Calandar Blocks...Maybe instead of a full size quilt I'll do that with the sqs....Thanks for the idea.

Is it too late to get involved with this? I don't remember seeing this thread.

Love the interchangable quilt. Great job.

Well, just finished up my partners DQ for March and it will be on it's way Monday to it's new home.

Donna
PS all the DQ this far are just lovely....

I adore that interchangeable quilt!
My dining room table is 60" x 60" which is a challenge to find mats or runners to fit well. (DH hates when I put them on an angle) This would be a great way to have one fits and still be able to change it up for the season!
Now why didn't I think of it?

Leslie-That turned out so pretty!! I do recognize that fabric in the middle of the blocks. Thanks for letting me see it. ;) Love love love it!!! You did a great job!!

Hugs,
Angie

Wow, been away from the board for a few days. Muv, Leslie, Nancy, JenGaile what great DQs you've made. JenGaile, I love the idea of the interchangeable block. I've got to put this on my list.

Great interchangable quilt, haven't seen one done like that before. I agree it would be a great idea for a future swap theme

Thank you very much. I will check it all out!!:)

I love this quilt!

Went shopping today with the April swap in mind. Darn it! What was I thinking. I came away with some gorgeous prints in coral and brown. I guess brown isn't a spring time color is it? Foo.

Krystyna, trees are brown.
Still working on your quilt, life keeps getting in the way.

nice muddy soil is brown also!, hmmmm, so is my dog! especially after she plays in the wet, muddy, brown yard. lol! love spring!!

Quiltingkrazy, your DQ is finished and ready for posting but I am holding it back until tomorrow (Wednesday) as it is going to hang in a little display where our Premier will be visiting :) It will be in the post for sure on Thursday. Had a lot of fun doing this DQ.

In New England the prime color of spring is brown. Up here spring is also known as mud season. Typically we do not see green until late April early May - So brown is a spring color!!!

Today I received my beautiful quilt from Judith! And it is a beauty! "Paducah Dogwood" all in colors of Spring! The centers of the blossoms are beaded-all the fabrics are gorgeous. Thank you so much!
Also Judith sent me......a turtle needle-case!! I've admired them every time I seen one posted from Judith! It has thread, scissors, and a packet of needles included with a baby pin-cushion turtle. Lots of hand work with metallic threads! I am over the moon.[ATTACH=CONFIG]321074[/ATTACH][ATTACH=CONFIG]321075[/ATTACH]And here is a fun picture of my youngest grand, Kip, whom I found carefully poking pins in and out of the recent pin cushion I received from SewExtreme-isn't he cute and yes, I watched him carefully!![ATTACH=CONFIG]321077[/ATTACH]
I have received a whole year of special quilts from special friends-thanks to all! Nancy.

Your quilt and the turtle are darling. and the Grand is adorable... such a great pic, now you need to teach him to use the sewing machine...

I received my amazing doll quilt and matching mug rug today from Donna and I am in awe of the beautiful work that she did! I absolutely L*O*V*E my quilt. Thank you soooo much!! Hugs![ATTACH=CONFIG]321086[/ATTACH]

I'm so glad you like it, I couldn't wait for you to get it. I really enjoyed making it just for you :)

Hi everyone. I have arrived in Melbourne, Australia safely. I have already taken the tram out to one of the shops that Lynnnie told me about. I got there and I could see signs up......closed. I thought OH Dear. The windows was covered too so I started worrying that maybe it went out of business. When I got there none of that was what I had thought. It was closed for the day, except for classes because the owner was sick. But someone inside saw me standing there and opened the door. I told her where I was from and she asked the proprietors Hubby if I could come in and look. He said YES. So he even let me buy some material. I got the most beautiful aborigini (spelling) material and some feed sack prints. I will probably return there sometime during my Visit. He also gave me a list of other places to check out that were closer to where I live. Gotta love the Australians....they are so nice.
I showed my GD the doll quilts that I am making for March and April. The one for April has appliques on it and my 7 yr old GD wants to help me put them on. I kinda of winced inside thinking how well could a 7 year old do but I am going to let her try one. So if Lynnie and I are matched for April, I am sure she will be delighted to get the doll quilt not only done by me but my darling GD. She is my only GD and she is my artsy crafty girl. She loves the I spy quilt that I made for them and promptly asks me is she can make a small I spy quilt. Gotta love that enthusiasm.

I am sorry but did I miss a mud quilt????? I know that Vermont, NH and maybe Maine have mud season in the spring. I think there is some kind of sport that they do called mudding and they ride through it or something like that.


Barb

Brenda; your quilt is so pretty and so perfect for you! The colors go well together, you received such a thoughtful quilt from Donna and the matching mugrug is great, too. The quilts are full of creativity this month.

What a fabulous quilt you received, Brenda. Lucky you!
Barb, so glad you arrived safely and that you're already having a marvelous time.
I do hope you and Lynnie get to meet. What fun that would be!
No mud quilts, but ... hmmmm. Spring = mud= btown!
Now anyone who loathes coral, speak up now before April partners are selected. Sign up in a couple of days!

Coral is one of my favorites... and Turquoise also... Wear alot of both colors... When will they be do for April... Still haven't gotten mine...

Lookie what the mail lady brought me today! It's from Moedeenie, and according to the lovely card she sent, it's her first doll quilt! NO WAY! This little quilt is much too AWESOME to be a "first"! :thumbup: I'm very, very impressed, and absolutely LOVE the quilt! The colors are gorgeous, and they even match my sewing room. Check out the "Eat Sleep Quilt" pin she used as an embellishment! How adorable (and true! LOL!) is that? :D She quilted it with fancy stitches, and even the back side is gorgeous. The workmanship is PERFECT! And what a pretty label! (Since this is a public forum, I edited out her last name in the picture.) :)

She also sent some a magnetic daisy notepad, a piece of green batik that I'm drooling over :D, and a nifty packet of tissues.

Thanks so much, Moedeenie! I'm tickled pink with everything! I'm one very lucky swapper to have gotten you as a partner! :thumbup:

So glad you made it!!! Sounds like you are having fun already. I am almost ready to send off your quilt. We are meeting at the quilt shop in Chapel Hill tomorrow to finish them off.

Brenda, Donna, I love the blue/green flower fabric you used. It's awesome.Super block pattern. I love it.

Moonrise, Moedeenie, Awesome:)! I love the fabric choice and your quilting is awesome!!And the little pin attached...how perfect.

The Premier??? sounds official. Get a picture to post if you can! That would just be really neat!
Yours is getting in the mail/post tomorrow as well. ( our Tuesday) Just never made it to to post office!
Yea, I know, just putting off till tomorrow what could have been done today! That's what my mom always said!

All these little quilts are SO beautiful! I am in awe to be a part of this group! Just makes me wanna try harder
with each one I do!
