I had a pretty good idea that yours was going to be late. I didn't get it to you until waaaaaaaaay late. So that's my fault.

Normally I'm not too bad about catching up to (nearly) within the time, but I've been away last week and have had various bits and pieces on. Its not your fault. I'll get it done as soon as I can.

At least the volcano seems to have gone back to sleep now.

You guys are too funny....late a few days...late a couple of weeks..ladies..it will all be ok :lol: This is just so exciting that its the last round! I can't wait to see these all get finished, they are all gorgeous. You can all pat yourselves on the back and grin ear to ear :D

buddy'smom 06-15-2010 07:53 AM

Mine will be a little late as well, mine arrived pretty late as well. Terri, where am I mailing mine to??

Just beautiful!!!!

Here is Border #4 that Snugquilt did for Sazu. It's LOVELY! I love how it's coming together! I really like the corners, Snug.

I haven't posted in a while....THINK this is where I'm supposed to post latest border pic. If not, let me know and I'll repost! This is round 4's border: Had trouble getting the entire thing in picture they're getting so big! I did simple and went with the purple...mostly. I added the flowers in the corners to try to bring out the center flowers once again....hope you like it! I know it's not easy to see. Sorry about that!

4th Border, by Snugquilt for Sazu

Snug...I like that border, it is really pretty and nice and uncomplicated so that the "finishing" round can really bring it all together. Great job!

tlrnhi 06-15-2010 07:24 PM

This round is coming out awesome!
I absolutely LOVE, LOVE, LOVE mine!!!

buddy'smom 06-17-2010 08:59 AM

Terri, next center heading out tomorrow.
Who has my round? Would love to see a picture of it? Sorry I can't post any pictures, camera not working right??

tlrnhi 06-17-2010 06:36 PM

Ok, I'll be waiting for it.

I'm sorry to say, but mine will be late getting out. I'm hoping to get it out this week...that is the last round. This move has just about killed me.
I've got most of my room done, just have to run to the store to get fabric. Will take the entire day to get the round done, then EXPRESS MAIL it out. Sorry for the delay.

Ducky 06-17-2010 07:00 PM

I received Sazu's center from Snugquilt. It's laying on my cutting table for me to stare at. I have no idea what to do with this. It's beautiful.

buddy'smom 06-18-2010 04:11 PM

Mine is in the mail to Terri.

SazuBMidlands 06-19-2010 01:56 PM

Woohoo - thats fantastic! I love how my quilt is coming along! Can't believe theres only one more round to go!

Buddy'smom - I have yours at the moment, but I'm running slightly behind. I'll get it done as soon as work allows - I have the fabrics and have started cutting. Its just work that gets in the way of my sewing time :-)

sandpat 06-19-2010 04:28 PM

Those darn jobs Sazu....you'd think that our Bosses would realize that we should get time off with pay to work on our sewing!!! We'll get to the actual "work work" when we have time! :lol:

buddy'smom 06-20-2010 03:14 PM

Well Terri, youe center has arrived, all I can say is WOW, it's stunning, not even sure at this point what to add, so have some thinking to do on this one.

BlueChicken 07-07-2010 01:35 AM

Just a quick message to say I haven't received the next round yet, I can't remember who is sending my way and can't find my list, I have to confess my desk is a mess! ;-)

It's absolutely no stress at all, the later the better to be honest! But just thought I'd better mention it in case it has been sent and has gone tiki touring.

SazuBMidlands 07-07-2010 02:23 AM

That's my fault I'm afraid. It's done, I snapped a quick photo before work this morning which i'll upload later. It's now packaged up on my desk ready for posting at lunchtime... hopefully it'll get there quickly since its all downhill ;-)

BlueChicken 07-07-2010 02:30 AM

Sweet! I can't wait to see the photo! :-)

But honestly... don't stress about getting to the post office. I have SO much on at the moment, another week isn't going to hurt. LOL

sandpat 07-07-2010 04:41 AM

Whew...scared me there for a second...I thought we had one lost at this late date :shock: I just want them ALL to get home safely at this point...we are soooo close!

Can't wait to see the pic Sazu!

I didnt make it to the post office at lunchtime, but its ready to go, so hopefully tomorrow.
The pic was taken very quickly and isnt the best, but hopefully it gives a general idea.
I tried to do something that didnt make it seem too "finished". Hopefully this is still open enough that Blue can come up with something for it. I also tried to pull the points out from the card trick at the centre.

What do you think???

(Ok, the room seems to be sideways - whoops! I guess thats because I'm a quarter of the way around the world from you all...?)

BlueChicken 07-07-2010 12:42 PM

That's gorgeous!

I know I can finish that, you've done an excellent job. Thank you! :-)

chewboo 07-07-2010 02:41 PM

wonderful job

sandpat 07-07-2010 04:43 PM

Sarah...that is a great round! I can even think of ways to finish it...Really great job!

tlrnhi 07-07-2010 07:02 PM

Ok, I FINALLY got the center mailed out.
Now, to work on this next round when I get back next week.

SazuBMidlands 07-09-2010 09:23 AM

Ok, finally managed to get it in the mail today. So sorry for the delay. Hopefully it'll get to NZ soon :-)
Sarah

sandpat 07-21-2010 06:46 PM

Ladies...I'm doing something a little different for the last/final round on each quilt. Would you please post them in your normal "group" thread so we can all ooohhh and awwww over them...but also could you please post them here http://www.quiltingboard.com/t-54909-1.htm.

I'm trying to have a thread with JUST the quilt pics on it....not page after page of chatter...but would love to have a thread where everyone can see all the quilts without giving up looking due to the comments.

Group Point people...can you help me make sure they get posted on the "finished" thread...If I see one on a thread finished, I'll try to round them up to post, but I might miss one..so thanks. The thread IS in the virtual section.

Ducky 08-01-2010 08:28 AM

Okay, Ladies. I may be back from the land of the dead. Got my surgery over with and am trying desperately to get back to be more responsible. Thank you for your patience.

SazuBMidlands 08-01-2010 08:36 AM

Ducky, I hope your surgery went well.
I think its mine that you've got, in which case dont worry too much. Take your recovery slowly.
The chances are once it comes home I wont do anything with it for a while anyway, so you really dont need to rush. Take all the time you need.

Blue, did the other one arrive with you yet?

sandpat 08-01-2010 06:03 PM

Ducky....get better soon!!!

tlrnhi 08-01-2010 06:57 PM

Ducky, glad you are back. You were missed!

I just love how mine is turning out, ladies you all out-did yourselves, thanks so much.

SazuBMidlands 08-16-2010 04:25 AM

Just to let you all know that BlueChicken's top arrived here today. I think it must have taken the scenic route.

I've got one possible idea for it, but will have to see. I'll try to do this fairly quickly for you Blue, but in the meantime its safely at my house. :)

sandpat 08-16-2010 05:17 AM

Boy...it did go sight seeing didn't it??? I know you will come up with something wonderful Sarah....I can't wait to see it...

julybaby8 08-16-2010 05:39 AM

HI Blue chicken

Your quilt is beautiful! The cats at the bottom add more dimension. I've cruised through here and saw the finished product with the ribbon and the butterflies in the top right corner. Just the touch!!

buddy'smom 08-16-2010 10:59 AM

I have Terri's completed, do I just go ahead and mail it home?
Terri I need your address, please PM me, thanks, this has been a great RR and can't wait to see mine completed.
Thanks everyone.

tlrnhi 08-16-2010 01:07 PM

Pm'd you!

sandpat 08-16-2010 03:51 PM

So Buddy's Mom...can you post a pic before you send it off so we can all ooohhh and ahhhh over it????

tlrnhi 08-16-2010 07:48 PM

Yes, please post pic? I'm anxious to see it!

buddy'smom 08-17-2010 12:32 PM

I'm sorry ladies my camera is not working right.

tlrnhi 08-17-2010 03:08 PM

You mean I have to wait and take a pic when it gets here? UGH!
