CarolynMT that is an awesome block - love the quilting you did on the block; someday I hope to just bite the bullet and do my own quilting. Can't wait to see the entire project when it's finished - SEW AND TELL on this thread is going to be spectacular!

Ok 
I got my piece "Queen's Romance" on my long arm yesterday, was all set to start quilting it this morning. Had my tea in my cup with a lid (cause cat loves to share and I dont 
) everyone was fed and watered. Just about stepped down to get to work and the power went out sigh, whole city was out for like 2hrs. So I ended up folding all my tiny scraps that were long enough to ruler fold into 2.5 x 2.5 bundles (nice strips) and bagged up the others for cutting in to precut sizes.
I did get down into the long arm room today after my nap and I started on my partners quilt 
I will not show all the quilt, because it is a big secret, but since she just had surgery recently I thought she might like a sneak peak. So here is one of the blocks quilted up, and I have to say, I am totally in love with it.....

OK, I've given up on the quilting machine . . . for now. The repairman wanted $120 just to show up. Living in the country does have some downfalls.
Anyway, back to finishing the bocks. MD Quilter, I'm sorry to say you may get your quilt quilted by a vintage singer 201. . . but at least I know how to run that one. :-)

Ok ladies and gent...we had 6 swappers not check in last month. It is a new month...need updates by the 15th. I also need confirmation for each swapper that your partner has been in contact with you. Have too many that are starting to go missing.
If your quilt is done, SIT on it until both partners are done and we schedule a ship date.
