chickenscratch Posted June 10, 2013 Author Report Share Posted June 10, 2013 I am loving all the sample blocks I'm seeing so far. This is going to be such a fun quilt. Raechel (and everybody else) put your blocks and an extra return postage envelope in your envelope and have the whole thing weighed. Then add that much for return postage. That will get it pretty close and I will put in an extra few cents if I need to. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Anette D. Posted June 11, 2013 Report Share Posted June 11, 2013 Teresa, I've been working on my blocks--a little each day. Do I make 22 of them, or has the number changed? Thanks for replying (I know you will) and thanks for taking on this task. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
JaniceC Posted June 11, 2013 Report Share Posted June 11, 2013 I have also been working on my blocks..... I have 9 done so far. As I have not received the fabric package from Teresa (and might not, for several more days because of customs etc) I decided to proceed using all of the blue and turquoise and bright greens from my stash. Each block is different from the next. My husband came into my sewing room just now wanting me to help out with something (why does he never need help when I am doing housework Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
JaniceC Posted June 11, 2013 Report Share Posted June 11, 2013 Sorry, part of my message seems to have gone missing .... What I tried to say was that he didn't recognize these as umbrellas. Somebody please tell me that they do look like umbrellas ..... please? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
oireachtas Posted June 11, 2013 Report Share Posted June 11, 2013 They look like umbrellas to me! Very cute. I especially like that fabric with the houses. It' fun to see what everyone is coming up with. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

chickenscratch Posted June 12, 2013 Author Report Share Posted June 12, 2013 Those umbrellas are so cute. We still need to make 22. I still don't have a sewing room floor, so I'm not making anything right now, except steam from my ears because he said he'd have it done Sunday and nothing has been done on it since Saturday.

JaniceC Posted June 12, 2013 Report Share Posted June 12, 2013 Thanks to all. I had the horrible feeling that maybe I was seeing umbrellas that weren't obvious to everyone else. To be fair, he was in the middle of cutting hay, and the weather isn't cooperating so maybe - just maybe - I didn't have his absolute undivided attention when I said 'can't you see what they are?'. Now I can carry on with the rest of them. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Bonnie H Posted June 12, 2013 Report Share Posted June 12, 2013 Teresa, I received my fabrics yesterday. I know why they took so long to get here. I gave you the wrong zip code! It is 93274 if you would please change your records. I'm sorry about that. I pulled out my Crayola Crayon box and "Sky Blue" crayon right out of the box is a pretty good match for the fabric color.

chickenscratch Posted June 13, 2013 Author Report Share Posted June 13, 2013 All of the fabric packages have been mailed out as of Monday. Everybody should have their package soon, if you haven't gotten it already. Send your completed blocks to Teresa Taylor PO Box 625 FInley, TN 38030 Include a return envelope with return postage equal to what it costs you to send your package to me Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

chickenscratch Posted June 18, 2013 Author Report Share Posted June 18, 2013 I am loving all these blocks. So cute. Remember you have until July 31st to finish. If you do finish early you can go ahead and send them. I have a big rubbermaid tote I will put them all in until time to sort them. Keep those pictures coming. It makes my day to see each one and smile. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Corey Posted June 21, 2013 Report Share Posted June 21, 2013 Just got in from overseas (Manila trip) last night, it's good to be back home. So the mysterious fabric packet that came from the mail is from Teresa. I got to get busy to catch up. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
