Thanks. EPP is really easy. I like it b/c it is so portable so I can take it to work w/ me. And I can do it sitting on the sofa watching TV. If you choose your pattern well you can get some stunning effects that are impossible or near impossible w/ any machine sewing.

Love Steam A Seam. It holds really well and as for washing, be sure applique is stitched down, no problems. I just did a collage quilt with it and LOVED it. It holds in place till you get it ironed down. Good stuff if you ask me.

Question again: Now if we are doing both swaps, you want one set for the two month swap in one baggie and then the three month swap in another baggie? Just getting ready.

Went over to the sewing room at clubhouse and got my material ironed and cut and bagged and marked!!
I realized how frugal I am - I had 20 sandwich baggies left over from past swaps, most with my tag on them!
I am so excited to see how you all will play with the fabric this time. Just have fun!!

TG: I reuse by baggies too sometimes they are ones I had sent other times they are from others I just stick my label over the old one and I'm good to go. I used all new baggies this time because I couldn't figure out where I had stashed the old ones found them yesterday.ha so they will be making it back into the rotation.

Kass: your lapass is really beautiful I wish I enjoyed hand work.

OMG Id be blind if I did that kind of work!! Im impressed but will NEVER try something like that!! Glad to see some old friends back in the swap and some new friends too! I threw my baggies away after the last swap because I wasn't sure I was going to do this one..wish I would have kept them!!

Annaquilts- hope your repairman has come and got you going again. Mine showed up at 8 am this morning. I have satellite again!! Hooray!
If we're doing doubles in Group two, these are the fabrics that I'll send

Janice McC

Yes, please separate each group into their own large bag. Just make sure you label which group is which. Of course, you should mail them to me in a single envelope to save money. It'll be snug but if you pack deliberately, don't just toss them in, they will all fit. An extra precaution would be to seal the mailing pkg with some packing tape as well.

Janice I went to post office yesterday and asked about the $6.80 postage for the padded envelope. They said they didn't have any envelopes... I told them that's ok I have 10 of them...The PO only has a $6.45 cent stamp so I added another 49 cent stamp to it and will send the stamped envelope to you along with the fabric if that's ok??
Didn't know how much of a hassle it is for you to have to stamp all return envelopes??
