Hollyrw Posted August 11, 2009 Report Share Posted August 11, 2009 Originally posted by chickenscratch Geez that was fast. Those went in the mail Saturday afternoon. I'm surprised they even left our town. A bunch of black ones went into today's mail. The only ones still to mail are Holly, the Canada folks, and the Australia folks. I have to actually go to the PO to mail those. DH can 't just drop them in a box somewhere LOL ENJOY YOUR BLOCKS GIRLS! They are all so cool. Wait until you see the black ones!!!! WOW!!! I'm sorry you had to take mine to the post office. The gal here said that wouldn't be necessary. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Pam Hish, Ridgway, IL , my town of 1100 is know as the popcorn capital of the world. We use to have a popcorn factory here but no more. Everyone in So. Illinois has heard of Popcorn Day, our town festival. I love all of my blocks!!!! I can't wait to get them set together. I just need to figure out how I want to do that. Thank you girls so much. It is so special to have a quilt made my all my "friends". I hope to meet some of you someday. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

JustSewSimple Posted August 14, 2009 Report Share Posted August 14, 2009 Are we doing a Christmas (or better yet Winter) exchange? I like to do winter better 'cause I call leave it out from December to March! Teresa, are you tired of all this? We love you girl! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
AbigailE Posted August 14, 2009 Report Share Posted August 14, 2009 Abigail Eliot (careful only one of each letter in the last name) from Rockford, IL made the nutty squirrel. I got mine and truely the photo's don't do it justice. I'm equally excited to see these tops posted. I've an idea or two swimming around in my head. Itching to get working, but better to be working.

Boni Posted August 14, 2009 Report Share Posted August 14, 2009 Want more ideas for layout for your fall quilt? Here is one I found this morning on the Bella quilt website: http://www.bellabellaquilts.com/krause.htm Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
IBQLTN2 Posted August 14, 2009 Report Share Posted August 14, 2009 WOW, What a great quilt for inspiration, and we already have our scare crow and maple leaves. I just picked up some great fall fabric from our guilds silent auction so I am all set go. Now to find a little bit of time:cool: Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
witha'K'quilting Posted August 14, 2009 Report Share Posted August 14, 2009 Originally posted by JustSewSimple I like to do winter better 'cause I call leave it out from December to March! Winter here goes from October through May!! We already had freezing temps in August this year...and it has snowed in July here too. Winter exchange would be great...but I think that is why I did the 2 1/2" strips swap! Can't do it all I am afraid and still have time to spend with family.

chickenscratch Posted August 14, 2009 Author Report Share Posted August 14, 2009 No Sylvia, I'm not tired of it. I love it. BUT, we did do a Christmas exchange. We did fabric strips which Linda was so great in coordinating. We may need to try for a new one in January or February. Maybe a Valentines day theme, or an Easter/spring theme. Y'all start thinking and let me know. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Boni Posted August 14, 2009 Report Share Posted August 14, 2009 I couldn't possibly start another one until next spring. I'm struggling to get my 30's together and now the fall one. I do like a winter theme, but not this year. If we did one next spring, what about Summer colors! Sailboats, hot air balloons, kites, watermelon, fishing, camping, hmmmmm...
