If you get me for a partner anything goes. I like surprises.

marscrafter 04-12-2013 02:46 PM

I'm the same, Lizzytish. I just like seeing what color palettes and styles other quilters come up with.

oooo, i've got a surprize for those of you who like surprizes! just because you tell us what you like, surprize! you may get nothing like it!! but when we chat and we get to know each other we grow as a community and as quilters . we have so many more resources! for instance, i'm really into 3D designs and art quilting. what's your favorite style or part of quilting?

Nelco 04-12-2013 05:56 PM

Brat...I love your cheering..You keep us laughing. :D

vanginney 04-12-2013 09:08 PM

The final count down!

Elisabrat 04-12-2013 09:10 PM

Nancia mine is pieced. one can make art quilts pieced also :) but for a mug rug 3 d doesnt work super well as well how can your mug sit on something standing out 3d like you goofball. Your right mom dropped you. lucky me she wasbetter at catching ALL THOSE YEARS LATER LIKE OODLES OF YEARS LATER when I was born. ok maybe not all that many years, or maybe not many years at all but I will never tell anyone I am only 51. oh crud did it again didnt I? when doing an art quilt I like snippets. tiny snippets of fabrics fused onto fabric to form a picture. One day I am going to do that again but not right now.. you have to feel it. applique I like for things that wont get washed much like a wall hanging. then its fun. prefer fused too so much time in needle turning stuff. and the eyes are not sure they want to do that. they have a mind of their own. so there now you know.. pieced makes me smile. oh and tops I love making quilt tops hate quilting them. as in really hate quilting them. and the best part is I know I am not alone on that one :)

cuppy 04-12-2013 10:59 PM

count me in.

nancia 04-13-2013 12:34 AM

uuuuuummmmmmm, brat? have you ever seen my mug rugs??

Elisabrat 04-13-2013 02:40 AM

no I havent.. show me a sneak peak!

sikesjj 04-13-2013 03:23 AM

I want to try my hand at a fracture quilt. I think it's Jaba that did the beautiful peony, but for now I will stick to my simple stripes because that is what I know and I know my machine will do it. Got to baby those machines!!!

Old_Rosebud 04-13-2013 03:30 AM

Woohoo! I'm part of a swap thread that turned into a sticky on the board! :D

wow I think Nelco will be announcing this morning that we filled up. snooze you .. well you dont ever lose on the quilting board if your not in one swap you can always be in another. In fact when this is full hobble on over tonite we will be posting a brand new table runner table mat swap! and heck they are not THAT much bigger than a mug rug! so you might consider signing up there if again this one is full. I think so many of you snuck in in the middle of the night! I didnt see you when I checked last. wow a bunch of night owls!!! owls.. did anyone do owls last time? or are they passay now (spell check Nancia please).. I know they were the rage only just a few months ago. I will come home today from dialysis to find this swap is full!! yipppeeeee!!!! yahooooo!!! dancing like the kitty in the previous post.. I'm so excited! I just can't hide it! I'm about to lose control and I think I like it... dance dance wiggle wiggle.. yuppers thats me. shy violet of a person me..

Cheesehead 04-13-2013 07:47 AM

I hope I made the cut, I really have been looking forward to this swap. We were on the road all day yesterday travelling from Alabama to Wisconsin for 17 hours. After enjoying 80 degree weather in Alabama we arrived home to 34 degrees and snow flurries.

MizMelly 04-13-2013 07:52 AM

Wow!! Glad I checked the board yesterday, or I would have lost out!! I'm #22 (years old.... he he he). Now how does that go? My sis always says 22 with 32 years of experience! Yup.
In case you can't tell.... I LOVE kitties!! (ravatar is one of my older kitties - Dusty). I also like just about ANYTHING. I'm a mad, mad, mad paper piecer too! And I live in the stinkin' desert where the temps regularly exceed 110 during the hottest part of the summer (like from June - September). And no one ever believes us when they exclaim about how HOT it is and we say "yes, but it's a DRY heat". Like that makes it cooler.... Us desert rats tend to hibernate in air conditioned houses. My sewing room is my favorite place this time of the year!
I have every type of fabric that can be listed. Ok, may be missing a few, but there's plenty of quilting stores and online stores with the ability to add to the stash.
Can't wait for this one to start, it's going to be funnnnnnn!!!!

stitchingpost-- we were neighbors!! we left in 2002. i miss it soooooo much! and don' tell anyone but i was born in vermont. that's why i had to live close as possible to the northern part of texas.

ok,brat, because you asked for it here are a couple of my 3D mugrugs, which someone dubbed mug hugs and i have totally adopted that name. i am working on one for lynnie but it's being very naughty!

scisyb220 04-13-2013 10:12 AM

WOW! nancia, those are amazing! LOVE the fishy one! And BTW, I am SO excited to to be in the swap!!!! :-)

nancia 04-13-2013 10:21 AM

thanks! each one is a one of a kind, there isn't a pattern. i include the mug because i know it will fit perfectly. they are fun to do and a nice mental challenge. as tim gunn says, "make it work!" and that's what i do!

sikesjj 04-13-2013 10:22 AM

Nancia that cat is the most precious thing I have ever seen! You are so clever!!!! I can't wait to get a new machine so I can do freehand, I have tried it with my current machine and it was a nightmare!!!!

sikesjj 04-13-2013 10:23 AM

You could so sell those on Etsy!!!

jamie-- i got a kick out of daisy's cat being named tiger. that is the name of our red cat and the model for the mug hug. i am sooo pleased your beautiful daughter is enjoying her gift.

Nelco 04-13-2013 01:14 PM
