Yeah, Cindy, you know I want the case and you want me to make the coffee while I'm at it! You're too funny!

OK are we all ready to go?I hate that julie won't make it,I don't know why she has to go to Lake Tahoe!I am thinking about what project to bring and I was thinking about doing some FMQ,anyone good at that so they could teach me?

I know I'm ready to go. lol

I can't FMQ either.

sew cornie

Can't FMQ yet and still pondering which project to bring. Still over 2 months to go, but it will come fast.

reeskylr, it will be nice to meet you in person. You were in my group for Boom 5.0 last summer. :0)

I remember!! lol maybe we should do a Beach Block Swap!

sew cornie

Oooh, that could be fun! Whadda ya'll think? Should we do a swap? We could pick one size/style (ie. 9" Churn Dash or 12" Sawtooth Star or whatever) and could do it like the FQ swaps we've done before: bring a block, take a block.

Or maybe we could each bring a set of 3" 9-patch blocks to pass out, bringing enough to share with everyone. We'd each then take home 15 blocks . . . one of our own blocks plus one from each person there. Can you imagine what each of us would create with identical sets of 9-patch blocks? We'd come out with 15 completely unique little quilts and maybe we could bring them back to share at a Fall retreat (am I planning ahead too much to be mentioning that right now? LOL). 9-Patches are quick and easy, especially when strip pieced.

Thoughts???

reeskylr

I'm all for that. We could do sets and folks could work on them, if they have nothing else. Hm, maybe send this to the email list. Woo.

cbridges22

I'm good with what ever,a block swap would be fun.We just decide on the size of the block and each bring enough to swap!

sew cornie

I'll send the suggestion out by email in case someone doesn't check in here. We'll see what everyone thinks of the idea.
