Posted - Jul 31 2014 : 4:19:01 PM Well, here we are again with another fun swap for the cooler? weather that we are bound to have. ********************************************************************
Here we go with the partners for the ATC block:
fille de ferme~~sweettea59 (both of you chose either fall or Halloween) Beth~~Killarney (both Halloween) Lady in Red~~Beverly (Lady chose both Fall and Halloween and Beverly chose Fall) quiltin_kate~~mrssarahhall (kate chose either and sarah chose Halloween) ptroupe~~mjscanlon (Portia chose Fall and MJ chose either) Beth~~quiltee (Beth and quiltee both chose Fall and Halloween)
**********************************************************************
We made one of the these back in the spring and they were enjoyed!
For this you will need a 3x4 inch or there abouts block of wood. This will become something like an ATC... You will need to paint all sides and decorate the back and the front. We also had one of these back during the spring and I was asked to do these again come fall, so here they are.
Now, Here is the hitch...You will need to put on the thread when you sign up if you want your block to be Halloween or strictly Fall. Please remember to include this info! You might be disappointed!!
Sign up ends Sept 5th Send out no later than Sept 27th
You can never be too kind!

Posted - Oct 07 2014 : 10:58:44 AM Mary Jo, I was certain I had thanked you for the wonderful blocks you sent me but when I was browsing the site today, I could not find the thank you. Did I send it through your email? If not, I am SO SORRY!Both blocks were beautiful and I loved the spider bag! Everything is displayed on my table in the dining room. Again, please forgive me if I did not send you a thank you.
Hugs, Portia
P.S. I mailed yours last week. Hope it has gotten there.
Wishing for the country life! |

Posted - Sep 30 2014 : 7:07:17 PM Kate, I am so horribly behind! I am so sorry. I haven't heard from you either, so I am hoping that you are in the same boat and not upset that I am running behind. I am going to get your block in the mail by the weekend I promise. :)

Posted - Sep 28 2014 : 11:12:26 AM Thanks, Beth - I'm glad you like everything. It was my first ever ATC/Block and wasn't sure what to do. As you can see, my "paper" is mostly fabric. Did the block arrive with no loose pieces? Thanks again for hosting the swap. It was a lot of fun. Now I am on to decorating the November Fan. Another new project for me.

Posted - Sep 28 2014 : 10:47:01 AM Oh Linda, What a wonderful box I opened today. We have had such a busy weekend and I wanted to wait and open when I could enjoy all the pretties!! Your block is wonderful! I love it!! It will add such a nice addition to my foyer decorations. The candle smells good enough to eat and the envelopes will be used sparingly!! Love the cookie cutters and just the time and effort that you put into the swap!! Thank you so much!! Happy crafting and Happy Fall!! Smiles, Beth

Beverely...I hope you don't mind me just showing the Block by itself. It seemed a little lost in the Tucks. LOL
I really enjoyed making it for you and hope you enjoy it. I just noticed I took these pictures before I was completely finished decorating your Block. LOL I had taken these and then decided I wanted to make it even more layers so it had a 3D look. And I guess I never took the finished Pictures. LOL
I just love the one you sent to me. It is my first Fallish Stuff out on display so far. I have been hanging onto Summer...but I think I need to get over it and move into Fall (since it is officially here) and get out all my Fall Decore.
Thanks for being a Great Swap Partner!!!
Love and Smiles, Peggy
