LOL Quilty nice hint! LOL Mary, yea your not at all too pushy hehehehe

Robyn beautiful block! I sincerely dislike paper piecing myself I get the paper all messed up, then I make a huge mess and end up throwing it all in trash!

It does bite when someone signs up and fails to come through :( Krystyna send me your address and I will make you something!

LOL
Mary your making me enjoy the "wait" until the reveal swap
of my idea for a swap.

YES sometimes I have a wicked (mean?) streak in me.

But all in due time my friends.

lawsonmugs 10-28-2011 09:13 AM

Come on just another hint or two.Ya know ya wanna.Come on.Oh and by the way "is it ready yet"?

koko 10-28-2011 12:11 PM

[quote=Krystyna]I don't think she will but it's OK. Not the end of the world. In the overall scheme of things it just doesn't matter.

Ooops. I forgot I'm maintaining silence.



Krystyana - Lori always has angels in waiting to assist her for those forgotten souls who have not yet received their SP package. I'd be your angel Krystyana anytime or for that matter even your SP if only I could bribe Lori.

Crafty Darlene 10-28-2011 12:43 PM

Great block Arizonagirl!
Hey Mary we're waiting for those pictures...
Quilty Louise we're all waiting for another easy swap. I'm sure you can learn all you need to from Lori!

Aye I DID learn a lot from Lori, she called me and helped me out
a ton, now to work on the rest of the "planning" so that I can calm
Mary (and others) down with a fun easy swap.

BUT I am not giving anymore clues, because it will make it TOO
easy to figure out what I have up my longgggg sleeves.

<insert wicked laugh here>

Lori Peercy 10-28-2011 03:41 PM

Krystyna has a package on the way to her, so everyone can calm down, our motto is "We leave no quilter behind"! Now Mary where are those pictures of your house?

lawsonmugs 10-28-2011 04:07 PM

Sorry I didn't get the pictures taken today. Night time ones wouldn't look so good. So I will try sunday afternoon,as my brakes are going out on my truck and my son is coming over tomorrow to fix them. He only lives about a hr. away. He is bringing his youngest daughter who is 13 and quite the chatter box.lol If they leave early enough I will take pictures after.then post them in the evening.If not it will be sunday.I'm ancious to show you what all I was trying to discribe.Thanks for the inerest though. Mary

So keep your fingers crossed.

lawsonmugs 10-28-2011 04:29 PM

I will!! Be sure to let us know on here when we can read or sign up for it.I guess it's not ready yet either huh?Mary

arizonagirl 10-28-2011 06:21 PM

Hey Candi I got your package in the mail tonight. So Siki finally told you. I had fun with our little game. I had to put the candy bar in the fridge and it should be ready to eat after dinner. I love the little pincushion you sent me. The fabric is so pretty and bright. Thank you so much for the package. They always seem to come when I could use a pick me up.

thomp116 10-28-2011 06:22 PM

Wow, Quilty, that was pretty quick work. Anxious to see what it is!

arizonagirl 10-28-2011 06:25 PM

Where's my girl Krystyna at? I'm working on a little something for you. I'm trying out something new and hope to have it out to you next week.

It's a surprise, but if it works out the might be one coming to you too. It will just depend on how it goes. I've been lazy all this week. It's been kind of rough. I started putting the borders on my son's quilt today. I have 3 borders to put on and so far I have one side of the first border and another side pinned and ready to sew. I swear this is the perfect quilt. It's going together beautifully. I measured for the side borders on each end and down the middle and they were all exactly the same. It it keeps up like this I won't even have to square it up after all the borders are on.

Shhhh, don't say that out loud - we don't want the quilt to act up! Still fighting the migraines?
Something just might be headed your way on Monday :thumbup:

Lori Peercy 10-28-2011 07:26 PM

Oh goodie I can't wait. Yes I am still fighting migraines. The weather change isn't helping either. My sinus are acting up and that tends to cause migraines also. So I'm going to be taking the Claritin-D 24 for a while to try and keep from getting them due to sinus problems.

Well my swap is officially on hold for a couple weeks.
This is the reply I got to my request, although I DID
leave out the last sentence so that you would not know
what kind of swap I am doing.

from PatriceJ:
"we are on the verge of some changes to the board. i'm holding off on new swaps for the next few weeks. please submit this again sometime after 15 Nov."

So I guess you will need to wait a while longer.

lawsonmugs 10-29-2011 08:16 AM

Well that don't seem fair. Maybe you could just tell me!Then I won't have to ask "is it ready yet???" any more.Wow it's always hurry up and wait.Lol Mary

greenini 10-29-2011 08:36 AM

For those who haven't seen it there is a message about the software switch, I almost missed it myself, I can understand why such activity will need to be on hold till it's over.

PatriceJ has just added a new downloadable answer matrix for some of the questions we've asked...go check it out!
