busybee Posted March 3, 2007 Report Share Posted March 3, 2007 HI I have been posting and thanking birthday blocks sent. Is there another place that I should be thanking the gift givers? I have sent out Jan & Feb blocks but only received thanks from one participant. I don't know if they received them all. Nita Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
chickenscratch Posted March 10, 2007 Report Share Posted March 10, 2007 Thanks to Deb Treusch for the fabulous block I got in the mail today. I can't take a picture because my little grandson broke my camera last week while he was here visiting. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
laststitchstudio Posted March 11, 2007 Report Share Posted March 11, 2007 Valerie McSorley...I was getting ready to make your block, but I don't have a description of what you want on my list. So please let me know and I'll get to work. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
janeta Posted March 12, 2007 Report Share Posted March 12, 2007 Just want to say a great big thank you to Deb Treusch for the bright and beautiful block you sent me. What a surprise to get another block months before my birthday. It's like Christmas in July to get surprises like this. I love the block! Thanks again.

love2qlt4u Posted March 14, 2007 Report Share Posted March 14, 2007 Thank You Debbie Treusch for the lovely birthday block. The purples are so pretty. Barbara Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
shadows4 Posted April 3, 2007 Report Share Posted April 3, 2007 Are we going to get the old pictures back or should we edit the posts where they were, to add them back ourselves? I'm starting to think of adding mine back to the posts they disappeared from. I enjoy going back and looking at all of the blocks posted and many have disappeared.

LindaFritchen Posted April 16, 2007 Report Share Posted April 16, 2007 I've been very bad (busy) about thanking for birthday blocks. In the last week some new ones have joined in...so will post how they all are starting to play together and become friends. The blocks are from Janet Armstrong, Vicki Bohnhoff, Bonnie Botts, Norece Embody, Renae Gamel, Barbara Goodson, Carol Hillary, Lorrie Houle, Kate Meyers, Jeanne Rumans, Teresa Taylor, Debbi Treusch, and Sue Urich. (Hope you don't mind me using your names. Does anyone else become confused with names and 'handles'?) It was such fun today to get them all out, feel them, admire them, and dream of when they become one piece!! Thank you to each of you. Time to get some more done and in the mail from me.

LindaFritchen Posted April 17, 2007 Report Share Posted April 17, 2007 Susan, I have been searching frantically this evening and unfortunately have not found a block from you. Is it in the photo and I got names mixed up? Have really been trying hard to mark my list as they come. My apologies to Elaine from Modesto, CA. (Your name is not on my list which was updated at the end of Jan.) I also have a striking block from you. Please send info for a block you would like to receive. Thank you, Elaine and Susan... I will keep looking! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Susanri Posted April 17, 2007 Report Share Posted April 17, 2007 Please don't go crazy, I sent in January, I can do another one I am glad you posted so I know it got lost. I have one more to do for april so I will try to do one for you too, Susan Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
lbuvens Posted April 17, 2007 Report Share Posted April 17, 2007 Bonnie and Debbie, I received Debbi's block from Bonnie. I will forward Debbie's to her along with mine. I just wanted to let you know if the mix-up. I have recveived a block from Bonnie a month or so ago. Linda Buvens Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
dancingstitcher Posted April 17, 2007 Report Share Posted April 17, 2007 And here I thought all was quiet on the BD Block group. Hadn't had an email in over a week or more. Kate - Valerie McSorley must be Leslie McSorley. The blocks are looking really nice in batches. Linda - you have such a good idea to photograph them all together. Maybe we should all do that and post them on the web here. It will also give each of us a boost to keep making them. Thanks for the motivation. Back to the fun.

dancingstitcher Posted April 17, 2007 Report Share Posted April 17, 2007 Thank you for the great and varied Christmas blocks - Valerie Edwards, Debbi Treusch, Jeanne Rumans, Carol Hillary (2 blocks), Marylyn Jones, Lorrie Houle, Sue Urich, and one from me. As you can see, Christmas has different interpretations for each of us. I do wish I had asked everybody to sign them, so if you haven't sent one to me yet, please do sign it. I'm putting masking tape IDs on the back of each one and will probably sign these since I'd like to remember each of you by your signature style. Debbi, Jeanne, Carol, and Marylyn, I'm working on your blocks and should have them done very soon. Just got Carol's done. Yippee! Vicki Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

dancingstitcher Posted April 18, 2007 Report Share Posted April 18, 2007 It is great to see all your blocks together Jeanne. I was able to go into my sewing area and select fabrics to blend nicely for constructing your surprise. Vicki Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
shadows4 Posted April 18, 2007 Report Share Posted April 18, 2007 Vicki: Your's is such a wonderful mixture of colors and styles! What color fabric are you thinking about for sashing, etc., (that is, if you are going to use sashing)? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Dreamscapes Posted April 18, 2007 Report Share Posted April 18, 2007 where are the pics of the blocks, would love to see them. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
LindaFritchen Posted April 18, 2007 Report Share Posted April 18, 2007 It is great to see what blocks people have received...would help me to hurry and pick fabric...maybe I could go a little faster. Don't want to waste my time on something that doesn't 'fit'! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
dancingstitcher Posted April 20, 2007 Report Share Posted April 20, 2007 Hey Jeanne - Just finished your block this afternoon. Oooo, it's so pretty. On sashing for mine I don't have a clue yet. Do you have any suggestions? If it's white, then I can do some Christmas writing on it. If it's holly or pine boughs then it's like blocks in a forest of greenery. Maybe there could be miniature paper pieced Christmas ornaments and symbols. Metallic gold! Make them look like stacks of Christmas packages with the big ones on the bottom and little ones on top? I'm hoping for an eureka moment. Have a good day and look for a present in the mail. Vicki Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
shadows4 Posted April 20, 2007 Report Share Posted April 20, 2007 Hi Vicki: I'm really excited about my block!!! It never gets old getting presents in the mail, does it? I love your idea of making the blocks like presents, though you might end up with a mighty large quilt! You are getting a lot of stars. They could be the stars in the sky with a brighter star to "guide the shepherds" to the baby Jesus. The possibilities are endless! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
shadows4 Posted April 20, 2007 Report Share Posted April 20, 2007 Here's the block I received from Lorrie Houle. It's beautiful!! Thank you so much, Lorrie! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
shadows4 Posted April 22, 2007 Report Share Posted April 22, 2007 Thank you so much Debbi Treusch for the block you sent! I really love it! I posted it earlier with the others I have received and you can see it goes really wonderful with the others. Thanks again! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
shadows4 Posted April 22, 2007 Report Share Posted April 22, 2007 Thanks also to Linda Card (ramona-quilter) for the Card Trick block! I love the fabrics and the way it also goes with the others. I sent you one last Thursday. I hope it goes well with your other blocks! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
CherylUribe Posted April 23, 2007 Report Share Posted April 23, 2007 so far, I've recieved these. Thanks everyone! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
chickenscratch Posted April 26, 2007 Report Share Posted April 26, 2007 Norece, She sent me a very similar one in different colors. I am trying to figure out how to make it. I thought it might make a quick relay for life quilt. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
