KLTQuilts

Both methods have their pros & cons ... but, I'm flexible. I think perhaps the leader(s) should have the final say as to which way we should embark . Looks like we should put on our thinking caps as to "themes" . . . the fun will be narrowing it down to one theme or even have a "sampler" quilt - have everyone make their favorite quilt block or theme. Just a thought . . .

I would also like to be included I will keep coming back to see if someone steps up and becomes the Hostess and her rules....

This could be a good avenue to go by. Fell asleep last night so did not look thru my information, So sorry. Will get on it hopefully tonight. I see two more are interested. That gives us 16.

Is it possible to send all our finished rows to our leader at a specified time with return postage included. that would mean only two mailings - one to leader and one back to us. Of course that would mean we will have to wait until the end. But at least we wouldn't loose an entire quilt. If someone doesn't come thru - they don't get the rows made for them. Similar to the Boomerangs now - I love watching each block being added to the gallery. With posting of each row we can all see the quilt come together which will give us ideas on how to continue.
Will we each make our own row first?

I think I'm going with a theme of bookcase/bookshelf or jars.

I like this idea but I agree that we should leave it to the leaders.

This is what I was trying to say earlier, lol.

Mailing our partners a color swatch would be good too and would only cost a little bit to add that step.

Saving over $40 in postage sounds great to me.

Waiting to see what the rules will be before I throw my hat officially into the ring.

I'm sorry but if this is the route we end up going with it would end up costing me even more. I understand some of you have been burned before but why aren't we trusting that we can mail it ourselves to the next person?

I would also like to add it would make sense to send to the organizer when it is a block swap and your doing so many of the exact same thing but these are all completely different and over a MUCH longer period of time. So now you are expecting people to keep rows for months at a time and not loose them or have something else happen to them.

Mariposa is doing some checking with the proper channels on this. Hang tough. Thinking her and I will be able to make everyone happy.
