Hi! To get the mailing address you click on Missi's name, then on pm (personnel message) I think I have this right?

mrspete 06-01-2010 07:46 PM

Got it, sending out June 2. Thanks

oksewglad 06-01-2010 07:48 PM

TammyD--yes and after clicking on the PM a page will come up with a box similar to our reply box; put a subject in the subject line, like "need snail mail address"; write your message in the box; when you are finished click on send.

TammyD 06-02-2010 09:49 AM

Thanks Glady!

Missi 06-02-2010 08:02 PM

Everyone thanks for answering questions that people have posted. I have been swamped at work augh!!!!! But I guess that is a good thing. Busy means clients and they mean $$$ to pay for all my quilt fabric :)
I haven't been to the post office since Thursday I bet the post office lady hates me :) I will try and get there Friday I know it is not gonna happen tomorrow :) And then I will double triple check that I have the list under quilting group activity updated. Thank you everyone for being patient!!!!!

Thanks Sandra. The Rail Fence Quilt is even lovelier close up. Ruth

stichinluvr 06-03-2010 09:46 AM

Missi - please sign me up for 10 sets. I should have them ready today.

oksewglad 06-03-2010 12:16 PM

Page 3 of this thread links a posting of what I am doing with the last swap and will add from this swap and my own fabrics. Going to have fun setting these 9 patches in a scrappy quilt.

Pretty quilt Sandra. I like your colors.

Hey everyone I updated the list on the open group activities sheet. Here is the link again. http://www.quiltingboard.com/group_a...jsp?gracnum=44

If I don't have you listed down as having your sets received and you sent them to me before last week please let me know. I have a milk crate full of all your envelopes and I am gonna have to get another one!

I do like her idea of using the fabric cube boxes and shelves for sorting your scraps! Little spendy on the set up but very convenient for finding what you want!

Hi Missi, Just got back from visiting my grandbabies. Will get my sets in the mail tomorrow, June 11th. Sorry for the delay, just couldn't squeeze in sending them before leaving on my trip. :-D

tooMuchFabric 06-10-2010 10:19 PM

I want to swap 10 sets of 50 fabs too.
Sent you a pm.
Thanks

STAR 06-13-2010 05:57 PM

I just got back from vacation and I forgot to finish them before I left so sorry and I will get them done asap

tigger5464 06-13-2010 11:57 PM

Missi...sending you a pm

SewExtremeSeams 06-14-2010 05:18 AM

Hi Missi, what was/is the last date for getting the sets sent to you? Saturday, the 12th, mine went in the mail but they might not actually get a move on it until today.

Hope you are enjoying seeing all the fabrics as they pass through your fingers. Have you taken any photos of the piles of 1.5" squares that have arrived? :D

Missi 06-14-2010 06:36 AM

Hey all - sign up deadline was yesterday and mailing deadline is the end of the month.

Also - if you haven't cut your squares please be careful when you are cutting. There isn't a lot of room for error when sewing these little gems together so it is super important that they are "square"

Missi 06-14-2010 02:55 PM

I plan to start cutting mine by this weekend...Hoping to mail off to you next week. Mary B MS

Kyiav10 06-20-2010 05:53 PM

Missi, I cut mine before vacation and will have them in the mail this week.

Thanks for hostessing this swap!

tooMuchFabric 06-21-2010 05:47 AM

I put 50 sets in the mail this morning, they say it will be to you Wednesday Missi.

ScrapQuilter 06-21-2010 07:10 AM

Wow 50 sets.......... you sure have been busy. What are you going to do with your squares??????

tooMuchFabric 06-21-2010 10:12 AM

Well, I've been thinking about that.

I want to find some really old, traditional, prairie-style pattern, and make it in mini.

Already made a scrappy Around the Block in mini.

ScrapQuilter 06-21-2010 10:35 AM

Please post some of your mini quilts......... always love to see what others have made.

smtp5 06-21-2010 01:02 PM

I thought there was a 10 set limit?

Alu_Rathbone 06-21-2010 01:13 PM

I'll be cutting today and tomorrow... and I'll ship on friday or sooner if I have the postage, otherwise it will HAVE to go out on friday...

If I send more than the 4 sets I said will, will that be okay?

I don't think there was a limit this time - you send what you want back

Oh, there was a 10 set limit when it first was posted! Are we still going to receive our sets back by the 30th?
thanks!

First page/rules--
Signup closes on June 13, 2010. If you are interested let me know, and how many sets you think you would be interested in trading.

In the spring swap we had over 12 people participate so no one got duplicates. Hopefully we will have as many people join again so I am setting the limit to ten sets.

ConnieF 06-23-2010 03:15 AM

June 23 and just seen this

Oh I see. I see. I was looking for numbers, and it is spelled out.
Sorry guys, I'll read closer next time, sorry for the confusion.
I wish I could say it's old age, which is part of the problem, but really I just did not read close enough!

Sets are due to me the end of the month and I hope to swap them out over the Holiday weekend and get them out in the mail that week!

SewExtremeSeams 06-23-2010 01:16 PM

Sounds great Missi. Hope that won't take away from you celebrating the 4th.

Thank you for all you have done and for the work left ahead in order to wrap this exchange up. I really appreciate your time and effort! :thumbup: :thumbup: :thumbup:
