Thanks,K, for all the effort you put into this swap! It has to take a lot of time. Also, the crazy quilt theme has been so interesting to watch and prompts me to try my hand at it again and maybe use some hand stitching next time.

Krystyna 05-25-2012 04:36 AM

As long as everyone is having fun, that's all that matters!

buslady 05-25-2012 05:14 AM

Fun? This is a BLAST!!

sweetwaterquilter 05-25-2012 07:56 AM

Thanks Krystyna for getting the names out so quick. I can't wait to get started. The best part is I get to meet a new person to partner up with. I've met some really great people since I've gotten involved with these swaps.

goldsberry921 05-25-2012 04:36 PM

I am glad to participate...again!! I had planned to sit this one out (how many times has that been said?!) but changed my mind!! Hope everyone has a great and SAFE weekend! Can't be any more safe that staying at home sewing!!!!

quiltymom 05-25-2012 06:09 PM

So much fun!!!!!!! Thanks Krystna!!!

Krystyna 05-26-2012 05:05 AM

I love getting to know everyone a little bit better with each swap. So much of everyone's personality comes out in their quilts, so even if I don't get to swap with you, I still feel like I know you all through your creativity.

sammygirlqt 05-26-2012 12:48 PM

Krystyna, all my partners have been terrific to swap with so I would be happy to have any of them again.

Psychomomquilter 05-27-2012 03:12 AM

Krystyna, you just don't worry about that. We can handle having someone we had before, and maybe it would be a good thing!!

goldsberry921 05-27-2012 03:21 AM

I agree with psychomomquilter! I've enjoyed each one of my swap partners. Not long ago, I was able to display all my DQ's I had received at a friend's quilt show and tell.

Krystyna 05-28-2012 06:47 AM

Well, I'm making a little switch. Sorry for the brain freeze. Must be old age setting in!

Chele's covers almost three years and it such a PITA to scroll through especially since it's in a different format than what I'm using now., so you might end up with someone you've had over the last three years. Sorry!

Dont be sorry,i for one would be happy to swap with all my past swappers,they were all wonderful!!!!!!

IrelandDragonQuilting 05-28-2012 05:07 PM

I just love this swap and love seeing all the beautiful creations!

Krystyna 05-28-2012 05:49 PM

Oowee, and anyone else who signed up ... I'm on it. Partners soon. I promise!

BuzzinBumble 05-28-2012 05:51 PM

Oh good Krystyna. I was a little worried you might have ran out of partners, but realized at this point you also might have to wait until the last day to see who you have available. You are so sweet to be organizing all this!

kittyannart 05-29-2012 03:47 AM

Hi Krystyna

I'm in for June.

Best, Ani

Krystyna 05-29-2012 05:56 AM

Aside from Ani ... aka Kittyannart ... and not to worry ... we'll get you a partner ... here's what we have so far. Did I miss anyone?

Whooo! Hoooo! Ready, set, go!!!!!!! This is gonna be so much fun. I have a bunch of fabric sitting out on my cutting table. Have an idea what I want to do, just trying to come up with a color scheme out of my stash. I am on a fabric diet. I am on a fabric diet. I am on a fabric diet. If I say it enough, will it come true? Actually, had a great weekend, finished up 3 UFO's and started to finish another. I went on a cutting binge a while back and cut out a bunch of purses, bags, potholders and casserole carriers. Only 1 more purse in that bag and I can't find the pot holders! CC's done too. But, I did get DH to hang the lights I bought 3 weeks ago so I could see in there! Hope I can come up with a DQ that will make my swap partner happy. Now, on to the races!!

I see you rowdy doll quilt swappers are still up to no good! LOL! Happy birthday Krystyna! I've been enjoying my self-imposed hiatus and causing trouble where I can. It's been fun to see everyone's creations. Long live the doll quilt swap! Miss you all.

Dragonfly Nana 05-29-2012 02:32 PM

Hi Chele! nice to see you on the board. We miss you too but Krystyna is keeping us in line - NOT! :p
We are still having a blast as always.

Krystyna 05-29-2012 02:55 PM

Hi Chele!!!! Miss you, girl!
Brenda, Miss Daisy looks (a) mad, (b) like she wants to eat me!!! Love her.

Eek! Didn't I PM you? You have Starshine!

Bored? Never! Ahhh, wish we were closer. I used to visit Lake St. Claire all the time. Bad girl that I was (am?) when we lived in Brooklyn Heights where there is NO parking ... we used to have Michigan plates on the car and ho ho ho at the parking tickets. Can't do that any more. They impound your car!

I have had quilts displayed in the local library all this month of May and I thought you would like to see that some of the quilts on display were sent to me by my lovely dolls quilt swap partners. I was overwhelmed with the positive comments and interest shown by library users. I will have another display next year.

Photo 1 shows my smaller quilts.
Photo 2 shows many of the quilts received through this dolls quilt swap.

I love showing your quilts to my local quilting friends.

rwquilts 05-30-2012 04:27 AM

Gorgeous array of quilts Lynnie! Hmmm...now I must pay attention to what you have and what you don't have that can add to that collection. :)

Krystyna 05-30-2012 04:33 AM

They are wonderful, Lyn. And how nice that your swap partners' work is on display, too. What a thrill!

sweetwaterquilter 05-30-2012 05:53 AM

Lynnie, What a beautiful display of quilts. I'm sure they were much admired by viewers. I think sometimes people who have no interest in quilts think of them as something old grannies make to keep warm. Before I decided to quilt I had no real idea of the beautiful and artistic planning that went into the quilts. It waas an eye opening experience for me and i'm sure for many others that see them. Might even stir the artistic bug in someone to get started quilting.

goldsberry921 05-30-2012 05:56 AM

I agree with your comment Sweetwaterquilter. In my case I just felt it was something that doesn't interest me at all because it seemed boring. Fast forward 2 yrs later of sewing... I enjoy it! Where I think I am not the creative type at all, someone else makes a comment to the contrary. It is fun and relaxing to say the least!

jillnjo 05-30-2012 06:05 AM

Lyn; How nice that all looks!! I really need to get mine displayed in my home in a way that I can enjoy them all together and guests can, too. We are artists for sure!

brenda21 05-30-2012 07:35 AM
