Those are so cute!

J., are you doing the next swap? hasn't been much action. Rhonda isn't going to do a sign up list this time, just a mailing list so I'm not sure how well it is going to go over. Wait and see.
peace |
I'd like to. I already started to think of some ideas. February is such a blah month that a pretty WH is a nice pick me up.
|
Ahh but February is one of my favorite months! I love Valentine's day and love to do hearts! I make stuffed hearts in Feb and give them to friends and my mom likes to give them away.

I came home from my trip Sunday night and I had a wonderful wall-hanging waiting for me from Ube Quilting. I just love it. I have always looked at the advent calendars but never made one for myself, and this is what my Christmas Tree wall-hanging is. The bottom three rows are little pockets. In addition to the wall-handing I also received a thimble, a cube of Thread Heaven, and a Hillcreek Designs Peace Angel.
Thank you so much Ube Quilting for the great package. [ATTACH=CONFIG]498393[/ATTACH] [ATTACH=CONFIG]498394[/ATTACH] |
Glad you received your WH Anoka. I was a tad worried as to its whereabouts. I PM'd Rhonda to let her know and was reassured. It was calming to hear from you that it was indeed, received. I do hope the little fillers are useful to you, or at least an incentive to try some hand work. I don't do a lot of hand work and maybe I was thnking of myself and how I would try some if I had received them. What ever the case, I do hope you enjoy them all.

My job is just crazy right now. We had a person quit at work who traveled a lot, about 75% of her job was travel. Because I do not have any children living at home I was the most logical one to pick up the slack. So I am truly away from home more than I am at home. With my crazy travel schedule hand work might be the perfect thing for me. I will have to put everything together for the "Peace Angel" and take her with me when I leave again on Wednesday. Thanks again ube quilting for everything.

Received this cute snowman from Quiltymom today. Don't know if you can tell by the picture but the fabrics have little silver specks on them that makes it look like glistening snow. So cute and beautiful detail. Thank you so much Sue, going to put it right in my entry way, it's beautiful. And thank you for the little bag of sweet treats too![ATTACH=CONFIG]498579[/ATTACH]

Okay, here goes. The reveal:
"Little Views of Spring" by LaQuita: 8 1/2 x 11"; backing brought to front for binding; Modified rail fence block? EDIT: This little quilt can be hung in any direction, there is no up or down and no hanging sleeve or triangle corners or tabs lets me be the boss of how I want to do it.:D [ATTACH=CONFIG]498636[/ATTACH] Fabric box: I love these little organizers [ATTACH=CONFIG]498637[/ATTACH] Thanks again LaQuita for this sweet bit of spring. Hope to see you all in the next swap. I had fun. Thanks everyone. peace |
Just looking at the received quilts and there are a few still to be shown, so there are more pictures to come!!!
peace |
What a cool little basket. Does snyone have the pattern?
|
I have all of the wall hangings shown as received except for one for Jaba. She is still waiting on Anoka's wh.
So if you haven't received and I have it down wrong let me know!! |
Fantastic wall hangings everyone!! I so appreciate you all for participating!! This swap went very well except for one goof on my part. LOL Oh well can't be perfect.
As soon as Jaba gets her second wall hanging I am going to put them all in one picture thread. |
I think the MN snow storm and the holiday may of delayed my WH'ings arrival. The USPS website is not finding the tracking number. Not sure why????
|
JNCT there is a tute for the baskets at www.seaside-stitches.blogspot.com They are so easy to make and a fun little project.
Now I know who my partner is :), I'm sure it will be here soon Anoka-, maybe today, will let you know. |
Less than an hour will get one done, even less than one half hour will be plenty of time to finish one. They are fast and can be made in any size you want. I have made a lot of them and use them all over the house for "stuff".
peace |
I just checked the USPS website and my WH left Denver last night. Hopefully Jaba will receive today.
|
Anoka from here to Denver is 2 days, has to stop in Wyoming for sorting. Not here today but it should be tomorrow, weather permitting. It has been snowing here all day and it hasn't quit yet.

OMG it was so worth the wait. I cannot thank you enough for this beauty Anoka Quilter and the extra panels you sent will make some very special items. The detail you did with the quilting is beautiful, thank you ever so much I love it!![ATTACH=CONFIG]498891[/ATTACH][ATTACH=CONFIG]498892[/ATTACH][ATTACH=CONFIG]498893[/ATTACH][ATTACH=CONFIG]498894[/ATTACH]Here's a closer pic of the wall hanging, I hope all of you can see the detail with the quilted snowflakes.[ATTACH=CONFIG]498895[/ATTACH]Forgot to add, it's all flannel too!
|
Jaba, I am glad that it arrive safely and that you like it. Enjoy!
|
Just beautiful Jaba and Anoka!!! It changes my mind about panels! I've never cared much for panels but this one is outstanding! And the snowflakes quilting adds so much to the wh!
|
I am not a huge panel person either but when I was doing the Row by Row experience the shop in Mankato had this WH made as a sample and I immediately thought of this swap for the project. The panel was named "Crazy for Christmas" and then you could download the free patterns to use with the panel at:
http://www.eeschenck.com/default.asp...tore=348&s=348 You have to scroll down a ways and the pdf is called Crazy for Panels. The sire also has a lot of really cute patterns for free. |
I just checked to make sure the link would work. You also have to click Quilt Projects and then Free Patterns.
|
Great panel work Anoka. Some times there are very nice panels out in the world to find, and this is one of them.
Thanks every one for another successful swap. I am working on planning my next WH. See you all there! peace |
When the husband walks in the door and sees it..." Where did that come from, which swap, it's awesome" you know it's fabulous! He tells it like it is Anoka and he loves it too! Thank you again so much.
|
I wonder where you guys find these awesome panels???? I have never seen anything like them at my local Hancock fabrics store. Since joining QB I have seen so many cool ones everyone is working with.
|
Oh jaba, that wall hanging is beautiful and the panels are so cute. I used to avoid panels, but not anymore. I will be checking them out from now on.
