Posted - Aug 07 2006 : 09:50:42 AM 1. Each person will make 8 1/2" muslin squares ( unbleached)(finished size -- 8") we are using this size so if you had entered the other swap these blocks will work with those to make a larger quilt.
2. Once everyone signs up, I'll post the number of squares you'll need to complete (we're adding 1 so that we can make a quilt for MaryJane)
3. Each square is to have your real name and your Farmgirl name embroidered on it. You can add something else if you want, but you don't have to. I've seen squares with a small flower,state outline, animals,etc, or a embroidered border around the name, or a scripture, etc. Again, anything other than your real name and Farmgirl name is purely optional.
4. All squares will be sent to me. I'll separate them out so everyone gets one each of all the squares, and then I'll send them out to everyone who participated. You will only need to pay the postage to send your squares to me. I'll take care of the postage to send them back out.
5. No pattern will be used. Just cut the muslin 8 1/2" square and then embroider your name and FarmGirl name, as well as anything else you want to add. You could even applique something to your square if you wanted. The only "requirement" is the embroidered names. AFter that, it's up to you to add nothing or something.
6. Please wash your material first to get all the sizing, etc. out.
Deadline for sign-ups by emailing me or posting here is the end of the day on the last day of Aug . I will post here on September first how many squares you'll need to make.
Deadline for getting the squares in the mail to me: Dec 1 just in time for Christmas fun and crazyness
My deadline for getting them back to you: within 7 days of receiving all the blocks
have a lovely day and may God bless you and keep you safe

Posted - Mar 26 2007 : 12:01:25 PM A few people made a few to many Probably because we have a person drop out and you may have missed that notice. What I am doing with the extra blocks. I am putting them up first come first serve in the stitching room. Who ever wants them has to make a block to trade me. When I get their trade I will mail you the new block. But your other blocks you will already have in your possession. So a few of you will get a few more like berries = has 3 extra ktknits = has 1 extra suzyhomemaker = has 1 extra

Posted - Feb 09 2007 : 08:00:54 AM yes, I know, I know, I know!!
Why does a do-over just take all the steam out of a project? I've got to finish the same 2 squares that I had to finish over 2 weeks ago. I have gotten other projects done, but this one just keeps staring at me. OK, I PROMISE that I'll make myself finish them this weekend and get them in the mail to you Monday. Thank you, everyone for your patience!
