    Welcome Robinlee & Atpegsquiltstudio! I got you both on the list and now we are 10.

    I have a mug rug to work on too! I got my partner for that swap today. It's going to have to wait until next weekend though.

    Well, gee whiz...I know I can make something if I have all of Feb. to work on it. Sign me up, too. I like anything with cats, kittens, flowers or bright colors. I learn so much on this site so perhaps this is a way to pay back a little.

    I love knowing you did a good job and someone appreciates it. Quilters really know how long it takes to make something and I find are so gracious and wonderful when they receive an item. This is the grand kuddo I get. Gettng something from someone who took time out of their busy day for you.. how incredibly great is that?

    Sign up people this is truly fun. Oodles of time to work on your item(s) and lovely chatter with others. Ok, we need someone to do a happy dance I sure hope Yosemitesa can come on over and dance for us. she was a cheerleader and is grand at standing on a desk and doing a jig when needed. If she cant anyone here good at desk dancing? I will sing! oh crud they are running wait wait! we have a good singer here honest! (fingers behind back) .. signup and I will find one just mention your here for the song. deal?

    okey dokey, i'm in! let's see..... my colors are kind of different, but if you think irises and pansies, then not so much. pollen yellow, chocolate raspberry and touches of lime green. and to add a little spice, i have a zebra chair and a leopard chair. my kitchen is a soft tuscan orange. family room is cappucino. bedroom--deep moss green, bathroom silvery gray and soft green. i'm so open it's ridiculous! there are wild animal mugs in the kitchen because dh got tired of roosters. i do have a 2' tall flamingo nightlite in my family room, and a frog butler end table. yeh, i know, not your average color scheme, but it works for us! i'm down to 2 dogs and 2 cats, and when i say 'down to' it's meaning really cut back the number of animals. dog beds would be fun--cocker spaniel size, altho' they are fond of dragging blankets to the floor to make a nest. each cat weighs 10lbs. but they are big snugglers and like to sleep with me. i say me because they all pile onto my side of the bed. dh sleeps fine, and i can hardly move! i feel so loved!

    Elisabrat, I sing, but no dancing for me please! I wiggle my butt and my guys say "whoa now, don't hurt anything!" (It's a joke!) I sang competitively in high school, and for both my son and myself, I can honestly say that music is like oxygen, we'd both die without it. For me, the music I choose in the moment is an expression of my mood, and how I sing along (which I almost can't help doing if I know the song) is an expression of my soul. My son plays drums and guitar, and my boyfriend plays drums (there's an electronic drum kit at the foot of our king size bed...romantic, huh?)

    One of my projects in waiting is a tote bag for a friend who is a music teacher. She's a sweet lady I used to work with (we were the red head twins) who teaches vocals and piano for a living, and used to sing and act on Broadway. I think another of my musical friends needs a case for the Kindle Fire he uses for teaching guitar lessons. Maybe I'll make it like the guitar mug rug in my photos, since he's also my son's teacher. So many projects I want to do!

I will do my happy dance and well Henry my large orange cat will do his Neener Dance for you on my coffee table.. like the dance the cat does on keyboard cat videos.. for you can you imagine that?? wow all for signing up!

A secret.. present. yeah a secret present is what this is about. Who doesnt like presents?? ok I like presents. Hand up pick me pick me!!

    Okay read all the stuff and sent my info, so I hope you don't mind if I join you. What's 1 more swap to do right? Can only hope I know how to make what you want or I'll have to "wing" it and pray. Not going to bore you with my colors or rooms but did a lengthy explanation on the info sheet, so whoever gets my name will have a couple or more choices , think I made it pretty easy. Will say it's kitchen or laundry room, green and black or gray or purple and chocolate. A little clue
