    I hate this new website.....it took me this long to find 'bookmarks', and I've tried to post a reply, but there's no send button....this is so frustrating. I wished they didn't change it, I like the other website better, it was much easier to navigate....
    At any rate, let's plan on a 'get together' on Friday night around 7pm, we'll quilt the night away and work over the weekend, as much as we can....the goal is to complete a project in 1 weekend!
    Blessings,

    This is a great idea but I have way too many. One of these days.

    Can I be in even if I have already been doing this for years now. I don't count orders from customers in the purchasing of new fabric.

I think I either need to just learn to machine quilt, or send a bunch out to someone so they get done!! Wasn't happy with the last one I got from the LA, so will be looking for someone new. I'm still here...just way behind.
    There are things like the original handi quilter, which was small and affordable for machine quilting on your home machine. I do machine quilting and I would have a hard time sending a quilt of to a total stranger in a far away place. There has to be a way to see samples of work a quilter has done before trusting them with all your hard work. Look for some one near by.

    Oh no!! I'm so sorry to hear about your accident. Hope and pray you heal fast!

    Can I still join the UFO party? I have several, can't remember what they all are though. Will have to dig through my closet to find them all.

    I'm in. I think I have at least 18 UFO's and probably half a dozen kits I haven't started. My plan is to finish 1 each month. This will be my year to concentrate on UFO's. Just think of the money I'll save! A year from now I can go shopping!
