Hi everyone. I already talked with Pvquilter and thought I would let you know too. I am unable to finish my blocks in time for the swap. Sadly, my sewing machine is having issues. The feed dogs aren't moving right and I am unable to finish the embroidery on the blocks. The "dogs" won't move backwards properly and so the stitches all get squinched together. I tried to get everything done before I send it out for service, but it is bad enough I can't finish. So, off to service it goes and hope they can fix it!
Good thing I will be travelling for the next two weeks, I won't miss my machine as much.
:(
I am sorry for letting you all down, but seeing the blocks shown so far, you guys are going to have some "cool" quilts!

I'm so sorry RatherB Quilting, your blocks will be missed in my winter wonderland. I hope you have a wonderful vacation, and stay cool.

Karie your snowman is cool. Wouldn't mind a little more coolness here.

My blocks went in the mail today. I got in this group in the last minute so I only made one set. looking forward to receiving snowmen back to go along with Santa and winter theme blocks.

RatherB, don't fret about it. Just think -- when you get your machine back, you can complete the rest of the work and still make yourself a wonderful quilt. and how awesome is that????

Have a terrific vacation, and I hope the machine doc can fix your baby safely, quickly, and for a reasonable cost.

Mrs. Snow with her baby. I designed the block back at the begining. Now I have to work quickly to get them finished and sent off by Saturday! I am enjoying this project!
