I wanted to separate our latest borders so they'd be easier to find. Thanks to Patrice for her help in guiding me. :-D These are all sooooo great.

We have a mailing date of February 15, 2010. I am still working on Terri's. A few snafu's came along, but I am busily working on them.

They are all beautiful. Thanks for sharing.

Thank you so much for taking the time to post your pictuers like this! I do haunt the other threads, but feel a bit snoopy since I'm not a part of it.

Things look to be going well for all of your quilts.

tlrnhi 02-09-2010 03:50 AM

Thanks Ducky!
I should do that for Group 2. Maybe once I get a few free minutes, I'll get it done

gramqlts 02-09-2010 08:47 PM

They are looking great ladies.

sandpat 02-10-2010 05:21 PM

Great job Ducky...I am going to try to do this for a few more of the groups in my spare time.

JUNEC 02-10-2010 05:39 PM

Just awesome

Ducky 02-11-2010 07:29 AM

My goal is to post a picture of Terri's center either tonight or tomorrow. I had soooo planned on getting this finished and out last week, but kept coming up against roadblocks. And, I apologize to Sazu because I can't get it in the mail until the 15th. Sounds pathetic, but have to wait for payday.... :roll:

tlrnhi 02-11-2010 07:48 AM

Hurry and post it!
I can't wait!!!

sandpat 02-11-2010 05:00 PM

Ducky...I wouldn't worry, I 'm sure Sazu will be fine. She is really a fantastic quilter, so I know she can handle something being mailed ON TIME!!! Duh...girl...you aren't even late! :lol: :lol:

Now...post! We wanna see it!

tlrnhi 02-11-2010 05:01 PM

Hey, where's the pic?

SazuBMidlands 02-12-2010 11:35 AM

Ducky, you really shouldnt worry about only posting on time!
I've got 2 centres from groups 6 arrived today, so I wouldnt get chance to work on it for at least a couple of weeks anyway. Feel free to take extra time if you need.

Sandpat - thank you for the compliment! Thats really sweet!

sandpat 02-12-2010 05:04 PM

Well Sazu...girl...I have seen your work in person... :shock: :D

After removing a finished border on Terri's center, I finally have what I want. Terri, the corners where the borders meet the corner blocksare not nice and neat like others' have done -- I couldn't get the math right. The diagonal corners are the same, though. I'm so sorry if it looks wonky, but both my husband and daughter really like it, so I'm not going to change anything unless you don't like it..... If you aren't happy with it, I'd change it in a heartbeat.

The fabrics have a gold metallic in them. The diamond [or the inside of the ribbon] is actually a soft green rather than the blue that the camera shows. I embroidered four different Kanji for the corner blocks -- Spirit, Beauty, Dream, Love.

Terri, I soooo hope it's okay.

mamabird3 02-21-2010 01:19 AM

Ooo... I really like that!!! Beautiful job.

mamatobugboo 02-21-2010 06:00 AM

I love it!

I'm sorry Ducky. I don't like it.
I ABSOLUTELY LOVE IT!!!!
Don't worry about anything being wonky on there. I'll let you in on a secret. One or the other of the centers I did has a little wonkyness because my math was bad too! ;)
DO NOT CHANGE A THING ON IT!! I LOVE, LOVE, LOVE IT!!!!!!

Ducky 02-21-2010 07:33 AM

Terri, I am so glad you like it. I don't know how many times I had an idea in my head, started it, then decided I didn't like it, then changed it. I felt good with this last one.

Ninnie 02-21-2010 10:08 AM

WOW!!! Ducky, you have blown me away!! that is just beautiful, and how clever you are!!

Sorry, Ninnie....you can't have it. It's MINE, ALL MINE! hehehe
Maybe I'll trade ya...I'll give you the center and you give me Morty.......hmm...wait a minute...have to rethink that one.....lol

gaigai 02-21-2010 06:26 PM

Wow Ducky! I'm not sure how I missed this--I haven't been getting notifications on this thread. Your border is beautiful!!! I love it, especially the symbols!

sandpat 02-22-2010 05:44 PM

Wow Ducky! I'm glad you settled on this one, it looks fabulous with the center! I love the corners with the symbols in them. You did a great job...I LOVE IT! I'm thinking your group should send it to me for safe keeping...you now Terri is moving around alot...it could get lost, damaged, misplaced.......you can never be too careful! :wink:

Patti....thank you for stepping forward and volunteering to keep this center safe, but I'm sure it will be fine. You can love it from afar. lol
It sure is pretty and Ducky did a wonderful job on it.

Dont worry Patti, Terri's centre doesnt go back to her yet, it comes to me next. I'll take good care of it. I'm looking forward for the chance to work with Asian fabrics, and the excuse for another trip to the LQS. I'll get my thinking cap on as to what to do :-)

tlrnhi 02-23-2010 05:45 AM

It doesn't have to be asian fabrics that you use.
My intent for using the geisha was just something to do different. I'm sure whatever is done is going to be beautiful!!!

sandpat 02-23-2010 06:36 AM

Welll......you can't fault a girl for asking..... :wink:

Okay, here are a couple of pictures of Buddy'smom's center with Snugquilt's 2nd border attached. The purple is a tad darker than it is in real life.


Bwah-ha-ha-ha.....I finally figured out what I'm going to do with this for the 3rd border......

Patience is a virtue, my child.

sandpat 02-27-2010 05:21 AM

And my dear, I've NEVER been accused of being "virtuous" :roll:

SAYS WHO!!!??? I've never thought patience was a virtue. I think it's a sign of a boring personality!! So there. If I were to pray for patience, it would be one of these:

"God, please give me patience, and I want it RIGHT NOW!!"

OR

"God, I really need to work tonight, so please make people sick so we have enough patients."


:mrgreen: :mrgreen: :mrgreen:

Gai...you bad girl you.... :lol: :lol:

Ducky 02-27-2010 04:30 PM

Sure seems like there would be plenty of sick people to keep you in business forever!

P.S. I'm still waiting for those two centers that you have hanging in your sewing room.
