    I will join you for the leaves and vines, already found my dots in Moda fabrics. I bought some of the Moda leaves also. In the meantime I will be lurking to see what everyone gets!

    Oh! Can I change my mind I just found some black and white fabric that I can't live without, Then looked through several of my quilt books and found several patterns that would look so good with a touch of red thrown in.

    oh, :oops:
    I got so excited when I saw a quilt in black, white and touches of red and then found some black and white fabric. I guess I'll just have to make a black and white quilt. Maybe a wall hanging.

    Hello Everyone,

    I finished swappin, stuffin, labellin and they are ready for out the door mailing on Monday... I had a few bumps along the way, no postage, no labels and quite a few members sent in POLY... I notified one member but I decided that I wasn't going to notify the rest.. I just returned them instead- but only after I had swapped them. Sooooooooo, i had to go back, take them all out, and sub with fabric that I had on hand.. Then it there were more poly- :shock: .. After the second one i gave up using my stash and just took what their pile would of been and did the luck of the draw who got what, so if you have dups, you know why... This swap was the biggest PITA ever with the most sets that I ever had to return.. Again, as a reminder thin fabric is not acceptable, please send in what you, yourself would love in return...And if your ever in doubt if your fabric is poly or not, please, do me a favor and do the burn test...
    if it burns and turns to ash then its COTTON,
    if it burns and melts, curls then its POLY...

    Next month there will be some changes in requirements so please read them carefully... Ok im off my box now...

    As for the BLUES.. they are on their way, first thing monday morning.. You guys did great on the selvages- THERE WERE NO SELVAGES RETURNS !!!!! First time ever!!!!!! :thumbup: :thumbup: :thumbup: :thumbup: :thumbup: :thumbup:

    I will be stalking the mailman starting Wednesday. I sure hope mine were all cotton. The end tag on the bolt said 100% cotton so here's hoping.
    Thank you for all the hard work you did to get these ready to send off. I would never attempt what you do unless I had a lot of help. Thank you again and am anxiously awaiting the sign-up. Getting black/white fabric ready now.
