Peeking in from gp 9, beautiful border. What exactly is that ruler called, cos I'm going to try and track it down over here.

Kathy N 09-17-2010 04:08 AM

It is called Double Diamonds. Two rulers come in the package (two different sizes).

Beautiful Kathy!!

Martina, I'm almost done with yours. Expect a picture in the next day or so. I'm kind of nervous.

Can't help you there but wishing you lots of inspiration.

Ligia and I have some exciting news. I submitted a photo of her center with the double diamond border on it to the double diamond website listed above. They immediately sent me an email asking permission to post it on their website in the gallery as a sample of what can be done with the ruler!! They said it should be posted early next week.

Dropping in from Group 12.....That border is stunning! I can understand why they would want to post a picture of it. Great job and congratulations!

Okay, I have finally got Martina's done. Yes I know we have until November 1st, lol. I've just been working on this in fits and starts since I got it.

The blocks I did are PP

OMG THAT is NEAT. Pam, thank you! I gasped when the pic came up so DH came over and he agrees - it is beautiful.

pam1966 09-19-2010 07:13 PM

I'm so glad you like it, I was really nervous. Guess I'll be that way with each round! LOL!

Hope Kathy will like hers too. Looks like the very last border will have to be beaten into submission yet. lol

Kathy N 09-20-2010 03:39 AM

I think it is wonderful Martina!!!! Very pretty fabrics.

MadQuilter 09-20-2010 07:38 AM

Wiping brow with relief, Kathy. lol

quiltwoman 09-20-2010 01:13 PM

Pam, that looks fantastic! I'm already mentally going thru my fabric to see what might work...................

Martina, I love it! The fabric you chose really picks up all the colors.

This is so much fun... :P

ligia 09-20-2010 03:29 PM

Hi everyone ,

I´m having some time abroad :lol: :lol:
Will be back Nov.10 . Hugs

pam1966 09-21-2010 02:18 AM

I love the fabric you used on Kathy's, Martina. It looks great!

I'm so excited now doing this. I will be counting the days until we mail again!

Lucky you, ligia. Ahem, where abroad - if you don't mind my noseyness?

Just checking: With you not being back in the country until Nov 10 - does that mean you need to push your mailing date for row 1 out to the 10th?

Hope you have a fabulous time.

Pam, I have to finish the label. Do you want me to send Kathy's center with row 1 to you early? I can hold on to it or send it. It's up to you. Just let me know.

Kathy, ligia's center with row 1 got to my house safe and sound yesterday. IT IS AMAZING. Very bright. Now my mind wants to tone it down a little. I think I'll head into the purple/blue realm. Ideas are buzzing!!!!!

pam1966 09-21-2010 12:16 PM

Martina, better hold off for a bit. When it rains it pours- my BIL is in the hospital. He has leukemia and it's not looking good, so I don't know if I'll be around for the next week.

Flying this evening to the US.
No need for that. Pls keep original mailing schedule, it takes 2 weeks to get here.
I will, thanks !!

I have to officially complain about ligia's center. It is hanging up in my room and it is talking to me. No, it is singing to me, but every time I see it, it's singing a different tune. lol So many choices.....what to pick? Good thing I have some time to decide.

LOL...Just pick the favorite tune that you like....LOL

Kathy N 09-24-2010 02:13 AM

I can name that tune in 2 notes.........no wait...10 notes....no wait 4 notes. I know exactly what you mean. It is going to be a GORGEOUS quilt. I just love the vibrant colors!!!!

Everything is looking beautiful!

All is well on the Frontier. At least I haven't heard anything to the contrary. I think I'll hop on over to the other groups to see what they are up to.

Finally figured out how to sign Kathy's label.

MadQuilter 09-30-2010 09:18 PM

I found the fabric to go on ligia's next border today. It is yummy - now I just need to decide which song I will listen to.

craftymainemom 10-01-2010 04:59 PM

I did the Seacoast Shop Hop today and I brought the two centers I have along to try and match the fabrics. I am happy to report I found what I was looking for. I still think that I will only complete one to send to ligia by the deadline but thats okay because then I will have one to work on in the next round.

Carsey 10-07-2010 05:02 PM

Beautiful Rounds!!!!

MadQuilter 10-08-2010 09:46 AM

So how is everyone doing? I still need to sign Kathy's label before I can pack it up. Pam how are things in your neck of the woods? How are the men in your life doing? Hoping that no news is good news.

sew cornie 10-08-2010 02:42 PM

Hi ladies ,

I´m back. For a while.... :mrgreen:
Martina - Yummy ? Love yummies !
Will work on Balindas center soon, so that its ready for mailing
as scheduled.
Had a great time in the US and I might say I´m ready for more .. :-)
Cheers!

MadQuilter 10-25-2010 10:39 AM

OK - fellow Frontier Quilters. This is the week to wrap up border #1. Mail date is next Monday. One week to go - whoohoo. My row 1 from Kathy is in waiting patiently to go to Pam.

Ligia's yummies got washed over the weekend.

Hi everyone,

Have finished Craftymainemom row. Hope she likes it.
Packing again, going back to the US :-D
This time for the Houston Festival ... looking forward meeting QB girls there.

Martina and Craftymom -
I think its a good thing that Balinda holds the mail until the 8th.
I´ll be back on Nov.18 so will be home when it gets here.
Is it ok for you ?

Maybe1day 10-25-2010 02:03 PM

Just popping in from group 6 for a look see, what a lovely job.

Maybe1day

It's great that you worked out what works for you.

Like the addition! It looks bright and happy.

The blue and pink looks sweet. I have the perfect fabric - I think.....
