Quilting in the New Year Swap - Sign up Closed January 7, 2011
#91
It is my hope that we get to do it in February. I put in the notice to PatriceJ to see if it will fly. Same rules as this, just different dates. You are right, it is almost time to get your partner assigned. I might start to work on that tonight/tomorrow. So many things to do with only one day off. Doesn't seem fair that work keeps interfering with the fun stuff does it. :)

Enjoy your day off. Make time to squeeze in the fun stuff. Right now I'm laid off and believe me I am enjoying my time off. I use to work 10 hours a day and drive 2 more, so it is so nice to have some time to myself. Only problem - it is too easy to put off the stuff you need to get done.
Since stuff needs to be mailed by Feb 9th - we should know fairly quick how its going. Hope we can continue.

I found a couple of possible project patterns for the swap that I thought I'd share the pix with you.
One is called Dresden Lane. I like this one because it FINALLY me see how easy it was to do. If *I* could figure it out you can too. As for the embroidery in the middle....I thought it would be fun to turn the middle into a signature part of the piece.
There is one that is a mock stained glass candle mat. The instructions look pretty simple and I am a sucker for stained glass stuff. Never done it (even in quilting) but I *do* like the looks of it.
The third one is strip piecing and alternating the angles. It looks simple (hopefully) and you could adjust it to a wall hanging size. Of course if you didn't like the quarter square triangle, half square triangles, or whatever.....change it. Who says we have to keep to it totally. Do what we want with them. hehehe
PS: Forgive the coloring on it. They were taken with the cell phone.

Thank you.

I was at a new quilt shop near Destin and found a pattern that I bought -- I rarely do that.
It is a jewelry travel case -- I will post a pix if it comes out well.
I have several ideas instead of jewelry for it
