bobbi Posted January 7, 2008 Report Share Posted January 7, 2008 I got 6 done yesterday, I used the OHIO star block, since this is a friendship exchange it will remind you all of Ohio! Also, should we sign right on the blocks or just put a note in and maybe a business card.......I\'ve also been working on a commissioned quilt using baby clothes to make the blocks....30of those little applique suckers! Here\'s the ones I have so far: Cathy, Melora, Merry Jo, Judi, Kristie, & I haven\'t decided.... Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

chickenscratch Posted January 7, 2008 Report Share Posted January 7, 2008 Bobbi, They\'re very nice. I did sign mine using an ultra fine point permanent fabric marker. The brown marker didn\'t bleed as badly as the black one did, but it also didn\'t show up as dark. I signed my first and last name, my city and state, and 2008. I would like all of mine signed please. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
chickenscratch Posted January 7, 2008 Report Share Posted January 7, 2008 Bobbi, I\'m not sure if you have Judi Burr or Judi Olson (my list is at home) but Judi Olson wants purple in her blocks, if you have any purple fabric. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
bobbi Posted January 7, 2008 Report Share Posted January 7, 2008 Theresa; I have Judi Olson, and I did a beige and Purple for her... I have some great pigma pens I will sign with... I LOVE that Idea, just wanted to make sure it was ok... Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
chickenscratch Posted January 7, 2008 Report Share Posted January 7, 2008 Bobbi, Do you like that block on the right? If so I\'ll put it in an envelope for you. If you\'d rather have something calmer I can make that too. Just let me know. I have 6 more to make, then I\'m done. Wow, what a difference from last year. This is so cool. We may have to do round two,since this went so quick. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
bobbi Posted January 8, 2008 Report Share Posted January 8, 2008 T: I do like that block.... it is a little busy, but that\'s what the scrappy thing is all about... I started out with just the most simple block... I love Ohio star, I\'ve been working on one for a raffle for our local chamber... I want to add Cardinals to the centers of the raffle quilt... What is the name of your block? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

chickenscratch Posted January 8, 2008 Report Share Posted January 8, 2008 Oh, Barbara. Those are beautiful. I hope I\'m on your list. I\'m going to have to check and see. Bobbi, I don\'t know if the block has a name. It started as a twin star, but I added a few lines here and there. THen Bonnie and Judi said they chose the same block, but I thought I made it up. Who knows? Here\'s another block for somebody. Who\'s into cowboys? I\'ve got the feeling I may end up keeping some of the blocks I\'m making.

Sandra Darlington Posted January 9, 2008 Report Share Posted January 9, 2008 When are all of our blocks supposed to be in the mail? I plan to start mine this coming weekend. I have been looking at block designs, so I\'m ready to begin. I was busy making a baby quilt for a shower gift, so had to get that done. Now I just need a label and the wrapping paper/gift bag.

chickenscratch Posted January 9, 2008 Report Share Posted January 9, 2008 I think we just agreed that they would be received by May, so you have plenty of time. Mine are in envelopes, but not in the mail yet; except for Michelle\'s which I finished the first day and mailed. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
jazzsmom Posted January 9, 2008 Report Share Posted January 9, 2008 Wow, everyone\'s blocks are gorgeous. I haven\'t gotten started yet coz I\'ve had the flu and bronchitis for the past 2 weeks. I probably won\'t get started until next week. I am thinking of using the Card Trick and Windblown Square blocks. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
