mstandridge -- got your fabric & block picked out - it will be in the mail monday! the bf is playing paintball and going to a team picnic tomorrow which means I can sew all day!! =)

I can do another swap this month if anyone wants to - just pm me. I found the BEST backing fabric for my new turtle quilt!!

picture please of backing fabric

Remind me if I haven't posted it tomorrow.

I had to walk away from my sewing room. Gigantic moth came in (idk how, through the air conditioner?) and I fought him - still don't know if i won - dropped a box of pins all over the floor and my blocks went every where in the battle.

I'm going in tomorrow to clean up the mess and probably go through every piece of fabric looking for that da*& moth (or his carcas)



it was time to walk away. and now that i'm sitting here, i feel like i have all sorts of bugs crawling all over me...

My Mom is that way about snakes, harmless red racers, her cat use to bring them to her all the time, and when my littlest sister was 11months old tiger brought her one and she ran screaming from the house, Alice still strapped into her highchair dragging her with her. Wouldn't go home until my brother Ted came home and found the snake, ofcourse the snake was dead.

It'll be so soft and cozy! I can't wait!

Yeah, that is a really neat fabric. It will look great on the back of your quilt.

I love turtles and this is soooooo cute

Much to my relief, I have just heard from Dannypanny that she has received my July block. I was getting a little worried as her block to me did not take as long in the mail.

She has also had computer and camera problems, so I am posting a pic for her.

Jetnica - I'm loving the turtle fabric.

OH my heaven's! That is beautiful! Paper pieced?

Yes, paper pieced. I did my first paper piecing when I started with this swap group and I think I have become addicted.

But that's a good thing .... right?
