Use any technique/ any style / any colors.
Embellishments are a fun way to add to your wall hanging if you like

Sign Up list

The Sign Up list is just to see who is interested in joining us.
The only list that counts is the Ready to Mail list at the end
of the 4 month swap.

You will then send your wall hanging to the quilter who's address you get.
You will receive from a different quilter than the one you send to.

This is not a partner swap.

Important!!

Rumbols 11-04-2018 03:39 AM

Sign me up. I am in.

Teen 11-04-2018 02:30 PM

I hope to be moving...my house is on the market now but I will try and make one. I hope to have a new address to ship to...**wink***. Please send happy vibes my way!!!

skaduzy 11-04-2018 07:48 PM

Happy vibes to Teen...a new house is always fun!

Looking forward to making something springy, think flowers.
Sign me up!

Teen 11-05-2018 11:25 AM

Thank you, sweetie!!! This wait is agony...

I have a started a wall hanging but not sure if I will use for swap. I have another one I want to make, too, so I'll decide on the nicer of the two. One is using Stonehenge fabrics and the blocks are mini's...the other one is scrappy using modern....no polka dots this time around...at least not entirely.

Boop56 11-05-2018 02:43 PM

I would so like to try this. Could you please tell me what a good size is?

Teen 11-05-2018 03:16 PM

Hi, Boop56!! Welcome. This will be my 2nd time participating and these gals are the best to hang with. The size is really up to you as long as it is larger than a mug rug and smaller than a lap quilt. So, go for it. My WH in the swap that just ended was 16"'square but this time my WH will measure out about 10x20"rectangle...at least..that is the plan. I personally don't have a preference but others may and may respond differently. Have fun and looking forward to chatting with you...

Annaquilts 11-05-2018 04:46 PM

I am in! I was thinking I might actually still get away still with a winter theme wallhanging. I really like those.

Teen 11-06-2018 03:26 PM

Well....I am at the quilting stage for 1 of 2 WH's. It is so darn cute. Still going to make the second WH and decide later which one to swap.

amalia64 11-06-2018 08:35 PM

Sign me in plz. Will continue with the one I started and didn't finish, now that I have more time for it..

Darcyshannon 11-07-2018 06:51 PM

This will be a fun project in the dark days of winter.

Teen 11-09-2018 12:59 PM

First WH completed....on to the second one.. I will post a picture of the one I decide to send but the first one I think you'all would like.

Rhonda 11-15-2018 11:35 PM

well ladies here we go again!!

Looks like we may have some new swappers! I hope you decide to join us ladies. This group of swappers are great at keeping the chit chat going through 4 months.

There are no rules except for size. Larger than a mugrug and smaller than a lap quilt. Which leaves the size open to your imagination!!

The only thing I need from you is to fill out the info I need

Name
address
can you send international yes or no?
Do you have pets?
Do you have allergies
I would like an email address just in case I need to get in touch
A phone number would be nice just in case

So to the important part -- make sure you let me know when you have a wall hanging ready to mail.
IF you dont' send me a pm letting me know you are ready to mail you won't be on the list to receive an address at the end of this swap.

Otherwise just have fun and create to your heart's desire!!

You have until Feb 28 to finish your wall hanging!!

Rhonda 11-15-2018 11:45 PM

Darcyshannon 11-16-2018 10:57 PM

Are seasonal or holiday themes okay to use?

Judith1005 11-17-2018 09:15 AM

I too am thinking of joining yall this time. But, I will try to get it made before I sign up. I am thinking of Spring. Because by February, everybody is ready and waiting for Spring and just over the Winter drudge.

Teen 11-17-2018 09:21 AM

Darcy.....no restrictions so themes are fine. We all love to have decor for the seasons... At least I do...

Judith....yea!!! Love to swap with you... You are always so creative and fun!! This is the sweetest group and all so talented...

The only rule regarding making a Wall Hanging is the size.

Other wise there are no rule!! Create to your heart's content or choose any thing you like for your wall hanging!! We love variety!!

I'll never tell even if you torture me with a feather LOL

Just a hint: remember I am a miniaturist quilter. (for those who don't know)

craftyjulz 11-25-2018 08:25 AM

I’m going to try this one out. I’ve never done a wall hanging before & always wanted to try. There’s just so many places to go with the idea!

Rhonda I’m totally into teal. Actually I love the whole cooler spectrum; teal, purple, blue & green.

Julz

Judith1005 11-25-2018 01:52 PM

I would say, that I love aqua and purple right now. I'm also a bright fabric junkie.

I do hope that at least one of you likes brights. I am also loving Pink and Orange together. In fact, my two latest bed size quilts have been made out of Pink and Orange.

I found this darling stack of 2.5" squares that just screamed out to me to make a Wall Hanging out of.

Please add me to your participant list. I started on my Wall Hanging today.

Teen 11-25-2018 02:01 PM

Pretty, Judith....love the colors. Create away....

Rumbols 11-25-2018 08:56 PM

My faves are red, black, and white. Or anything but blue. I am easy to please.Due to some medical problems, I am working on my wall hanging a bit early. I chose Spring flowers as i am pressed for time. Should be finished by next week; will let you know.

I'm hoping everything will be ok, Rumbols. Special thoughts and prayers for you...

Rumbols 11-26-2018 09:42 AM

Thank you Teen. The next two weeks will be testing. When results are in, we will see.
I am with Rhonda, great seeing some new players on board. This is a fun swap.

Teen 11-26-2018 06:46 PM

Welcome new swappers!! You are sure to enjoy....

I am out of control!!! I have made 3 wall hangings for this swap that I have not posted pictures on QB picture thread for any of them until I decide which one I'm swapping. I'm stopping now to finish up some Christmas stuff but I keep getting inspired. I need to stop surfing the web...lol...

Annaquilts 11-27-2018 07:37 AM

For color schemes I like more muted red, white and blue.

amalia64 11-27-2018 07:51 AM

I like all colors. Not much on grays unles missed with blue n some star

skaduzy 11-28-2018 08:09 AM

I like most colors...not so much brown. Love scarlet and grays together (can you tell I'm in Ohio?)
Hope everyone had a nice Thanksgiving.....I am still full, ate way too much,:D but at least all the turkey is gone.

craftyjulz 11-28-2018 09:13 PM

Got a panel today to try to use for this wh swap. I’m excited but nervous because I don’t have a longarm anymore so finishing this means trying to quilt on my own little Bernina 440QE. I love my sewing machine, but she sure doesn’t have much of a throat to squish that quilt through. I may have to rent some time on a longarm & do it that way, but first I have to figure out how I’m going to surround the panel. Much thinking & imagining ahead. I’m happy because I know I’m getting the upgrade to EQ8 for Christmas (thanks to my awesome Mom) so if I get stuck I can wait until then.
