This morning the news was saying that there is still time... maybe they can come to some agreement and then there will not be a strike.

Guess what I got today! That's right I got mine & Bernie's rows in the mail today! I'll do the rows and mail them off with the project Linus quilt next week. ( from the US side)

Yay!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! Not that I'm going to be able to do anything with it right away (like adding the last row, borders, sandwiching and quilting)--I'm in full swing making 5 fully gathered bridesmaids dresses, garters, etc... Oh well, at least it will be back home! :thumbup: I think I'll hang it up in my sewing room so I can admire it all day long.

I'm not even going to look at mine until yours is finished! I didn't end up putting a border on the project linus one but I did find some cool Rainbow fabric for the binding, it finishes it off well. At least I think it does.

Can't wait to see pictures. Remember, we haven't seen Bernie's for a while either.

I'm just about to start the last pass for the quilting. Are you excited Bernie?

Not sure about Bernie, but I'm looking forward to seeing it. I'm sure she is too.

Well ladies I finished Bernie's!!! I had just bought this material that was 2 1/2 inch strips of co-ordinating fabrics, and they matched Bernie's rows exactly... How strange is that?

So here are the photos. Hope everyone enjoys them.

Project Linus... quilted & bound

The Project Linus one is on a queen sized bed... and covers the top.... I think it covers the linus requirements

JudyG 06-10-2011 04:17 PM

They're all gorgeous. Are all quilts for this row robin done now? Great job everyone.

Ripped on Scotch 06-12-2011 04:33 PM

Yes, bernie it is beautiful,actually I would have loved to keep them all,I would think okay,this one is my favorite,then another would come in the mail and it would turn into my favorite.I couldn't decide.I LOVED them all,I am so glad each one came out so great.

They are coming along sloooooowly! Mainly because my heart isn't in it! I want to be quilting!

virtualbernie 06-15-2011 08:08 AM

I've got my quilts! I've got my quilts! Yayyyyyyyyyyyyyy!!! They are more beautiful in the flesh than the pictures! Ripped did a super stupendous job on quilting and binding the Linus Quilt. As soon as the labels arrive, I'll add it so that whomever gets this beautiful quilt will know who lovingly put this quilt together! I think it will be a great story for some little person! I have one more row to add to my quilt (the 12th row) and I only hope I can make this last row as wonderful as the previous 11 :roll: I won't be able to do it until I finish those dang bridesmaids dresses, ring bearer pillow and garters but I'm going to hang it up in my livingroom for all to admire until then. It will keep a fire lit under my butt to quickly finish the wedding stuff so I can complete my quilt! Thanks again ladies for the wonderful, wonderful job you did on my quilts! :thumbup: :thumbup: :thumbup:

Good thing I didn't drop them in the mail yesterday... the postal service went on a full blow strike this morning. Locked out all the employees and no service for now. Got to love it!

And just when I thought Ole Murphy was out to get me! Thank goodness! And thank you again for quilting and binding the Linus Quilt!

Ripped on Scotch 06-15-2011 09:13 AM

No problem. I figured it was going to be loved alot so I machine stitched the binding too.

Ripped on Scotch 06-15-2011 09:19 AM

Are we going to be leaving feedback for each other?

Good incentive for you to keep busy on that wedding stuff - having your row robin to work on as a treat.
