Elisabrat

I will think now 35 vs 15 blocks, 3 and some days to do it.. one block every 3 days or so right? I will switch if it helps get the games going but you guys.. start sending that fabric out asap so I have enough time here to do it. I need a purpose in my down time days and I am floundering right now with not much to do other than house work (BORING) and heck it takes my mind off dialysis so YES switch me over. Not a single other quilt project to do anyways I have done one twin, two 60 x 60 couch quilts, four wall hangings, almost done with my Henrietta Whiskers quilt (needs quilting) three DQ's, and four pin cushions other than that.. nothing and this is since June 8th. I need something to play with! Kensington and you other on the fencers.., jump on over to the other side with me. dare you just look at the cool quilts that have been done this way. 'LOOK" COME ON OVER TO THE LARGER SIDE..

FREE FABRIC! FREE FABRIC! here is an image for those who want to fantasize: opening your mail box. Packages and packages, and more packages.. all full of FABRIC.. all addressed to you .. if that isn't the ULTIMATE in fantasy dreams I don't know what is. Sign me up. oh wait, you already did. Re sign me. I like that fantasy tremendously.

I am in for the one small set I signed up for. I can't change that Elisabrat, sorry. This will tie up right in the middle of the holidays. I have 7 kids and 8 grandkids. I shut my craftroom down when my 18 Christmas trees go up and I don't use it again until they come down. I don't want to put myself through that kind of stress.

You put up 18 Christmas trees?? WOW!!!

I sure do, some are small, some are large, one is very big... I have a 3 story, 6 bedroom, 4 bath home and I put one and sometimes more in every room. Including bathrooms and hallways and entries. LOL. I decorate every room, change bedding, and wall decor... the whole nine yards, it takes me a week with a crew to get done working all day. But, it's beautiful, I entertain lots and everyone loves it. Kids really love it for all the moving, musical, singing things there are to see and touch.

But, you do see my delima here. Right? LOL. This swap/quilt will be the 3rd one I complete before Christmas and I don't want to let anyone down or overwhelm myself. Taking it slow.

Ok...now you have me intrigued...you MUST take pictures of all 18 when you put them up this year... A friend of mine did 15 in her home and I thought that was a bunch...I fight to get my 1 tree inside and 1 tree outside up...good luck!!! Can't wait to see it...can I join buddy's mom and come to your house???

I think I live the closest to her so I should really get to come see it...we don't put one a tree any more. Hubby is gone all week and with just me there and the 2 furcats it's not worth hollering at them when I get home and have a mess. If Dad is still with us at Christmas he won't want it up either as he never has one at his house. Oh yeah, and the hubby put the longarm where I use to put the tree anyway...so there's no room now even if I wanted to set it up. Guess I get off lucky in some ways like that. I've got scads and scads of stuff under our house so I guess I should give it to others....mmmm now to get someone young and skinny to drag it out, lol.

I have pictures of my house decorated... I should start a picture thread for you. My kids used to whine about helping, until one year I did not do so much. They would rather help than not see this house decked from top to bottom! Even Dh does all he can to help without complaint. I've even gone back to getting a real tree for my BIG tree that is all Hallmark ornaments. Well, actually all of my trees, save one, the aluminum tree has Hallmark ornaments. Which is why I have so many trees, I collect Hallmark ornaments.

Here are some pics I just posted for you of some of it. I will have to search out my pics of others rooms and decorations, trees etc. Thanks for asking!
