Kimmie has an idea for this exchange

in

Kimmie, wrote me a message in my guest books. This is what her idea for an exchange could be: What do you think?

"For the fifth block exchange, what if we did "mini" blocks in just two colors. If the group chose blue and white, we would each make 4 mini blocks (4" square)in the two colors for each person in the exchange. Then the receiving person could add sashing and arrange the blocks in a variety of ways.
Or, another idea, each person makes a dresden plate block to trade. I know my grandma has one she made with her friends and it is awesome!"

Theo and me

Hi Girls,

It's a long time ago that I was here. But we have very busy months. At first we had our party for our 25 years of marriage. But I also have flue. This is the thirth week. It goes better now, but I'm still dizzy. I have sinusitus and sinus inflammation. And that causes that I'm dizzy. I hope I feel well soon. When I'm well you will see me more often. I have some pictures of the party from last saturday.

block exchange for the summer

in

I have not been on the site much this summer.  My back has been acting up and when it was'nt I was doing things with my family. I woke up early the other morning because I could not sleep,so i figured i would finish up the blocks for the mail.  I had the back door open for the fresh air.I have 4 cats, 2 sisters 14 years old and 2 brothers, 2 years old.  They like to go outside.  So I hear cat ruckus out back, i see the the boys and a big orange cat. So i call the boys, pss,pss. The orange cat rubs up against me, so thinking.

Fabric swap

in

Sue, I've done fabric swaps in two ways - fat quarters and 6 inch sqares. Both were by style, either a certain holiday or florals or batiks or plaids, etc. I don't want to do fat quarters again but might be interested in doing sqares maybe 5 or 6 inch or even 4 inch if that's what others wanted to do. We used to swap 3 different squares for each person who signed up. So if 10 people signed up each person would cut 30 sqares (10 from each of 3 different fabrics) to swap. Anyone else have any ideas?? Ive been packing up my fabric but I haven't packed Halloween or Christmas fabric yet!!
