Hi everyone! Just PM'd all the addresses and a quick review of the instructions. Hope everyone is doing well. Stay in touch!

Well I sent the PM and have now realized that it was not up-to-date. Getting a current address list from QBee - or if you all want to PM me your addresses that would be great!!! (Think Tony the Tiger). Sunny and warm Sunday afternoon in Central Ohio. Laundry and sewing on the schedule this afternoon if I ever get off the computer. I work tomorrow so hope to send the new address list on Tuesday.

Thanks!
CherylW

Hi everyone,

I thought I would be done before the PO closes at noon today but I'm going to need the rest of the WE to finish and will mail out on Monday via priority. I will post pics when done and I am going to include some fabric scraps that I have left over and some fabric from one of the main fabrics I used so if you want to use any or none feel free to.

I will include sashing that I would like between the blocks and I'd like the rows to stay unattached if you wouldn't mind. That way I don't have to send the sashing that goes between the rows and I can play around w/ row placement when it comes back to me.

I am doing sampler blocks. I picked blocks that would have been around during the civil war era (old patterns that seem to have been around forever). This is my 1st row robin so it will be a learn as you go experience for me:)

I am going to send a small journal that you can write in if you wish. I'm going to put the block names in there.

I'm not sure what to do about a label yet. Have any of you decided? Can you either post a pic or explain what you are using to give me an idea?

I'm so excited but a little nervous to work on your quilts!

I would love to see any pics you have of your rows so I can start thinking ahead :)

Hello Ladies,
here are some pics of my row. I'm not crazy about a few of the blocks. I may end up ripping them out when I get the rows back.

I just need to figure out what I'm doing for a label and write in my journal (after I dig one out). I'm hoping to get that done tonight so I can mail it tomorrow.

Am I the last one to get mine out?

Hi everyone......my row is in a package ready to be put in an envelope but I am stuck in the middle of the Port of Los Angeles shutdown/strike. I will mail as soon as I can get to the airport....hopefully this week....

Thanks for your understanding

My Row
 

Hi to All!

I too am late getting my row out - but it will go out today! Scrappy - just send as soon as you can.

I am sending 2 fat quarters, fabric for sashing between blocks and between rows. As you can see I like bright colors. Have fun with it! I used blocks from the Farmer's Wife sampler quilt. I thought that would be a neat idea - older blocks with newer fabrics. It was a lot of fun.

Let me know if anyone else is having problems getting their rows mailed out today.

Remember - don't stress out about your row. Our next mail date won't be for a while. Enjoy the holidays! Let your creative thoughts marinate.

lol Just sent you an PM Cheryl :) I'm running late too, one of the threads I decided I just HAD to have got back ordered, but they promise me it was mailed Saturday, I will receive it on Tuesday so I can mail out Wednesday! Life is crazy here, one of my rescue dogs who was supposely spayed, popped out 9 little cuties on the 4th of November, my hours at work have doubled and my family is crazy LOL thus life gets in the way of fun and quilting :) :) Will post pictures when I get it all put together :) :)

OK I will be mailing our this weekend, I am running behind. I am sorry. cuppy

OK, the journal is out! It would cost too much to send and I don't want to make it even more expensive to mail. Let me tell you, I am not too happy with the postal system right now! They had envelopes in with the flat rate ones and then say they are not the flat rate and the cost is based on weight. (to be honest, I was having a horrendous day and I really wanted to smack her!) maybe tomorrow will be better!

CherylW, I wanted to let you know your row arrived safe and sound. Thank you for the Buckeye Bar :) I think chocolate is a food group!

Surprise......I've been released from the salt mines LOL.....I'm happy to report my row is packaged and I'm heading to the post office today........I apologize for being so late.....I guess that's just God's way of reminding us He controls our lives.....

I'm so excited to start the next phase and if anyone has questions about my theme etc, just let me know.

Thanks again for everyone's patience.

Scrapper, I mailed mine to you yesterday. I have never had such a hard time with the PO about mailing something as I have this package and it involved TWO seperate POs. I hope it makes it there OK. There is no tracking # because the clerk swore up and down that the PO does not have such a thing even though I did it with another package 2 wks ago at a different PO. It has been a week from hell and by that point I did not have anymore energy to argue w/ someone! :(

Just a quick question - Cuppy and Shana - have you been able to mail your rows out? Just trying to keep track. Hoping everyone should have the row they are to work on this next week. Let me know how you are doing. Have a great day!

I will send row to Shana on Wednesday priority! all packed up ready to go. cuppy

received row robin from scrapper today! cuppy

Scrapper, did you receive my row yet? Is the strike still ongoing?

Shana, I sent my row robin to you ,sorry for the delay. You should receive soon, I have tracking. Thanks, Cuppy

Shana have you been able to mail your row yet?

Has everyone received a row?

Please post when you do! Have a great weekend.

Shana, have you received my row. According to tracking it should be there. Hope you are doing well. Cuppy

Scrapper, has my row arrived? I sent it out priority awhile ago.

So glad row has been delivered to Shana. [TABLE]
