Kathleen and Debra... put blocks in the mail for you. I'm hand sewing them bc I don't have my sewing machine up and going yet. I got it for Christmas from my parents and haven't found a place for it.

We need one more quilter to have the last block for a 3 x 5 arrangement. If she doesn't join us I though about making the last block to contain our information about the quilt. Such as: Our Friendship Quilt made by Mary Jane's Farm-girls 2014 Or something on that idea. What do you all think? Any suggestions or ideas?

Hello,
I am not often on the swap site but popped on today. Several years ago I did a crazy quilt piece sway and had a good time. I would like to join this swap if it is not too late. I realize this is the last day.
I tried to end you an email but it would not work. I will try again later.

Good morning girls! Winter returned last night with sleet and temperature down to 26F...ugh. Anyway, we are now 15 in our group thanks to Holly! As soon as everyone gets their blocks completed and mailed, we can start assembling them into our quilts! I can't wait to see everyone's quilts so be prepared to post photos for us all.
Holly, I haven't received your mailing information yet, once we have it you will begin to receive blocks for your quilt; and I will email the block information and the list of all the quilters for you to send the blocks you make.
Have a great day y'all! :)

Received a block from RoDonna today, you did such a good job with the hand-stitching, thank you for such a special and lovely block. Three blocks received..... 11 more to go and I can put my quilt together! Let's get stitching girls. :)

OK, gals, I've received two beautiful blocks, and promise to be in full production in the next few weeks. Did we get sixteen? Read a post somewhere about that one being something about or from MJF and think that's a great idea.
Happy Easter!
Blessings,

we have a total of 15 quilters, Carol. We can get a nice sized lap quilt by joining 3x5 blocks with sashes and a border. approx 9" block, 2" sashes and inner boarder, with 6" out boarder will produce a quilt approx. 47" x 69". An easy size to machine quilt.

Hello. I just found this thread and was wondering if it is still active. I have been reading through the posts and it looks like a lot of fun. If you are still looking for members, could you please email the particulars to me so I can understand what is required before I sign on. If it is closed, I will just wait for another swap like this one. Thank you.

Hi Lei, There's always room for one more. You would be #16 in our group so you would need to make and mail out only 15 blocks. The blocks are very easy and quick to make and use fabric scraps (no required colored scheme). I think all the requirements are already posted at different places on this site. Members receive a detailed instructions on the construction of the block, and a list of all the Quilters names and mailing addresses. We each send a block to each person on the list, so in the end, each quilter has received a block from each of the other quilters. With your block, we will be able to construct a quilt 4 blocks x 4 blocks and finish it any way you want; in the end, it is your quilt. To get started, send me an email with your name and mailing address, and I will email to you the Block.pdf and the Quilter's List. We would all be very pleased for you to join us. Kathleen

Hello,
Could you please resend the list of women to send too. I have 9 names.
I received my first piece from Kathleen today. I feel included now. I have my material and some of it is cut.

Something really bizarre is happening. I am not receiving any of the emails. My email security is on the lowest possible setting so I should see it. Anyone have any ideas for a reason why I cannot get Kathleen's emails?
