So how does it work that we select the holiday theme? I know the one I want to do, but do I wait till I am assigned my partner?

Sleepy Hollow

I've just picked the one I want to do and surprise my partner, they find out when it shows up in the mail, but I have been asked if I have a preference. I like for my partner to do the one they would find most fun, or want to do the most, so I never have a holiday preference.

Thanks, so I have chosen one, and found the fabric.

Just1MoreStitcher, you can start yours anytime and when I assign partners, you can mail it out whenever u are done. i like to send it in time to celebrate the holiday but you have the whole month. don't tell us or your partner which holiday you choose, surprise them.

Oh, I have begun. I have the holiday selected, the main theme fabric, and I am right now taking a break from pulling out fabric tubs to find the other fabrics. I found some printed post card backs from when I did some a few years ago, and have gone over the tutorial here to make sure I have it right. This is such a perfect way to get me back into the board.

Printed postcard backs? I wanna see. And how'd you make them?

I found a book one time (after moving multiple times in the last 5 years I can't find them, but I could scan and email them to you. I have several forms. All 4 x 6.

Just got done looking for (and finding) the power cord for the machine I am going to put this together so I don't have to remove the thread and bobbin from the machine I am working on a double wedding ring quilt. I am down to 5 working machines, one of which I am trying to find a home for because I have its replacement.

Anyway, the book that had the post card back template was by Patti R Anderson and copywritten in 2000, or another from Quilter's Newsletter Magazine December 2005. Then I have one with no idea where I found it. I find lots from the internet, and I have changed computers several times since 2005.
