    Hopefully you will have the dresden plates again next year. Maybe by then I'll be able to get around on this board.
    Here is the tutorial for the spirng blocks we did, the pointsettias are made the same way. If you want to join, you are welcome, as I can always use another pointsettia to swap out. If you are going to join, please pm me.

    I know the swap is closed, but I have had two more wishing to join, They will pm me if they are definitely doing pointsettias. Remember the blocks are due Nov 30, send them along with a return address label and a $4.95 stamp.

    All my plates are basted and I am sewing them down with a blanket stitch. Deb had said this part would go fast and it is. I am really enjoying seeing the end product. I also hope to send them out in a week or so and will post pictures before they go out.

    Oh no Deb I hope you figure it out soon. I have posted with the new system but I tried today and it would not let me. Several years ago I was on a forum like this and I had to shrink the pictures on a website before I could post. It was a pain and I sure hope I will not have to again.

    Sad news here. ljdugas 31's mom passed away. She is having a very hard time. I have two now that have dropped out. I am posting who I know I have for sure here, and what indicated is being done. Since we have the new board, and I lost the original listing of who was involved, I think we are going to have a little issue of enough blocks to swap out. Snowflakes - 9 total Pattis47, Islandwiz, Fancy_Fabric, SharonB, Annaquilts, Sapdoggie, wholeheartmom, Krisb, monalisa. Pointsettias - 10 total islandwiz, fancy_fabric, Annaquilts (2) Sherri R (3) sapdoggie, Robert, Monalisa. These do not include mine that I will do. With the two dropping out ....and the rest who haven't let me know as I lost their names when we switched over - please, I ask that if your name isn't on here and you are doing snowflakes or pointsettias - please let me know. And if I have made a mistake on what you are doing or the # of sets, please correct me!

    Still plugging away on the snowflakes here

    To post pics they do have to be under a certain size but Patrice has posted a cheat sheet on it - if you have Paint or Microsoft Picture it really isn't that hard - here is the help

    I'll have two sets of poinsettias finished tomorrow and my third nearly done. I would love do do a snowflake but not sure I can finish in time as were going away for Thanksgiving and I also need to finish a quilt for my Mother-in-law before we go...... I've decided to make hers Dresden Plates too. I love them and think she'll like it. She's 86
