Oh, I really like that! Very striking!

Ninnie 10-28-2009 02:07 PM

I really like that!!! The Pink makes the center POP!!!
Great choice!!


I will do Chrys's the first of next week, will be caught up by then. And I already know what I am going to do! :D :D

SaraSewing 10-28-2009 04:22 PM

oh yes! I love it! I wondered if it would be colored or black, but I figured the first round would be plain since I got kinda busy in the center. THank you, thank you, thank you for such a nice surprise!!

SaraSewing 10-28-2009 04:23 PM

I'll definitely have to put it in a dim bedroom. Kinda bright! Wow, once again, thank you for such a nice touch.

Janstar 10-28-2009 04:25 PM

I'm so glad you like it Sara! That is my first center and was a little nervous about doing it. Wheeeew!

Esqmommy 10-28-2009 04:27 PM

Nice job Jan !! You have done that center a great job - it would've been too much to add a busy border to the first round!

Janstar 11-02-2009 04:56 PM

We're getting buried so I'm going to ask if there are any more centers done? I watch every day and read all the group's news. There are some really pretty ones coming out. So exciting watching the progress! Hi to my group and have fun!!

kwhite 11-02-2009 04:58 PM

I have mine done in my head and it is Beautiful!!!

Ducky 11-02-2009 04:58 PM

I think the pink border is perfect! It really makes the center stand out so well, don't you think? Beautiful.

Ninnie 11-03-2009 03:57 AM

coping from Elle, just a reminder

Okay, Just a reminder this round is due to go out on DECEMBER 1st 2009.

I think we agreed, correct me if I am wrong, that when we send out this time we put in a small gift/Postcard (something lightweight) in an envelope, with the name of the person whose block it was originally on it.

Then each time that block is sent on each person puts a small gift in the envelope. When it gets back to its original owner they will have 5 gifts with their full sized quilt.

Is everyone happy with this idea. PM me if you are not or have difficulties with this idea.

Chrys 11-04-2009 04:30 PM

thanks for the reminder...I kept thinking Dec. 15th was the mailing date....and I like the idea of the small gifts....

Ducky 11-05-2009 04:21 PM

That is wonderful, Ninnie!! How creative of you! It looks just like it was all planned to go together. Great job.

amma 11-05-2009 04:37 PM

It makes me want to grab my "ears" and start singing Mickey's theme song at the top of my lungs :D :D :D I love that red and white polka dot fabric...reminds me of Minnie's outfit 8) 8) 8) Awesome Work!!!

Still no word from Chrys :roll: :roll: . Hope she approves. It was a fun one to work on :D :D

Esqmommy 11-06-2009 05:45 AM

It is adorable! Great job Ninnie! What a fun one to work on - the song came popping into my head! You've earned a trip to Disneyland, for sure!

omak 11-06-2009 05:46 AM

Mickey isn't my thing, but if Chrys doesn't like him, you just toddle him over to the bunkhouse! Cuz, I think you did a terrific job on that border!
(I wasn't going to butt into your thread, but I HAVE to!) It's in the job description I wrote up for myself, or something. <wave>

Ninnie 11-09-2009 08:15 AM

Morning my little "chickadees"!!! Just checking in with everyone to see how the centers are doing. and to see if there were any progress reports!! :D :D
There is still plenty of time :D

Ninnie 11-12-2009 07:18 AM

we need to get some chatter going here, we are not as talkative as the other groups :lol: :lol: :lol: Maybe we should have called outselfs The Quiet Quilters :shock: :shock: I still have to try to find some post cards from around here to send on. guess that is a trip to Wally World :D
So how is everyone doing?

Chrys 11-12-2009 03:41 PM

I have my fabric finally picked out and I know what I'm going to do...just need to do it! lol. Yeah, we are a quiet group, aren't we.

Janstar 11-12-2009 09:22 PM

I agree Ninnie, we are too quiet for quilters. The quilters I know always have something to say! Can't wait to see what you have come up with Chrys!! I 've been watching the other groups and there sure are some cool centers coming out. Makes me a little nervous but then I'm my own worst critic most of the time. We are supposed to get snow tonight. Yuck! Have to work tomarrow so will check in later tomarrow afternoon.
