churunga	Posted - May 24 2020 : 10:02:09 PM I have started this new thread to replace the old one which was just too full. Here is something I'm working on. I'm using fabric from the fabric swaps. Marie Sister #5142 Farmgirl of the Month May 2014 Try everything once and the fun things twice.

quiltee	Posted - Jun 07 2026 : 2:53:35 PM I will have to count all the triangles. A lot of them are ones I added; at least one of the gals were from overseas.

churunga	Posted - Jun 07 2026 : 2:49:41 PM I remember that swap and was in it. I was neglectful and didn't send all of them out. I had started to put mine together on point with a square of solid green between each one. I may eventually embroider on those.

Nancy Joplin	Posted - Jun 07 2026 : 12:17:51 PM Great idea, Linda! Can't wait to see it finished! Nancy 8352 FGOTM Oct 2024
quiltee	Posted - Jun 07 2026 : 08:50:26 AM LOL! Yes, Heather. I sewed all of the triangles together. The swap was for a specific number of triangles, one of which was to have your name and city/state on it. I sewed everyone's set that I received together in a row, and added a few of mine to make it longer. Since that version of the quilt was way too long, this is the version I came up with. And that is a lot of triangles. I almost have the corner squares finished and will change out the unfinished picture of the top when I finish this the last square this afternoon.

nndairy	Posted - Jun 07 2026 : 06:52:02 AM Amazing quilts! Did you sew all those triangles together or did they come as bigger blocks for the swap? That one looks very intimidating to me LOL! ~Heather Farmgirl Sister #4701 2026 Farmgirl Sister of the Year “I would rather be on my farm than be emperor of the world.” — George Washington
StitchinWitch	Posted - Jun 06 2026 : 4:31:01 PM Linda you have been busy. Love it all! Looks like you have been successful at using up some scraps. I like bright and black but have trouble sewing on black lately. Judith 7932 FGOTM 6/21 6/24 12/25 I'm old and I wear purple

quiltee	Posted - Jun 06 2026 : 09:30:21 AM I finished several Quilt tops, a few I’m going to Quilt myself and a few that are going to my Longarm Quilter. Here are a few of them. From a small group BoM from around 2016 From a 2008 triangle swap on former Block Central online quilting site (I am making corner squares for the border) 1 of the corner squares Older 9-patch blocks I got at a thrift store (I am making these inti doll quilts for a friend’s daughters) 4-patch and signature blocks from an online seap - i’m not sure, but it may have been a MaryJanesFarm swap Quilted sweatshirt jacket - still needs binding. I am also pulling fabrics for backings for these quilts and a few more. Going to give at least 5 quilts to my longarm quilter on Thursday Whew! What a week!

MaryJanesNiece	Posted - Jun 05 2026 : 3:53:32 PM Nancy, I have a similar door hanging rack that used to be grandmas. I like to store the items I will be needing for my current project in them. Also I keep my special gel pens in the top one so they don't disappear with my children lol! Krista Farmgirl Sister #528 Farmgirl Of The Year 2025

Nancy Joplin	Posted - Jun 05 2026 : 10:44:55 AM Thanks, Heather and Wanda! It has kept projects together and off the table in my sewing/craft room. I have been able to complete more projects because I know where things are. I have one inside of a closet, too. I use it to organize things like pieces of fusible foam and interfacings for projects, a small bag of patterns and ideas for future projects. I never have to search for something to do!

nndairy	Posted - Jun 05 2026 : 08:24:53 AM Thanks everyone! Krista - those turned out great. Can't wait to see what you work on next. Nancy- that's a great idea! ~Heather Farmgirl Sister #4701 2026 Farmgirl Sister of the Year “I would rather be on my farm than be emperor of the world.” — George Washington
Wanda Sue	Posted - Jun 04 2026 : 3:31:19 PM I love your idea Nancy! A day hemmed in prayer is less likely to unravel. Farm Girl #3677 Farmgirl of the Month: Aug/2022 Feb/2026
Nancy Joplin	Posted - Jun 04 2026 : 10:32:33 AM Krista, I bought an over door rack for my projects at the dollar store. I put them into large baggies with all of the pieces that I will need to complete them. There are six hooks on the rack, so if I can't decide which one to work on first, I can roll a die and it picks for me! I have gotten so much done using that idea! I am always busy doing one project or the other. when a space is empty, I put in another project. Nancy 8352 FGOTM Oct 2024
