Hello my Friends,
I just wanted to give you a heads up on the colors of the blocks, etc...... We will have 2 swaps going if enough join in....

First swap is: Blue, Purple, Cream all around....meaning, we will make 2 blocks one is a purple block, if there are 2 purples used you will use dark purple and a lighter purple, cream all around is the background and it's unbleached muslin.....no whites at all... The fabric: Marbles, Tone on Tone, but only Unbleached Muslin for the background.....Please pre-wash all fabrics. Also use a good quality fabric. I will post a picture each month of the blocks we are to make.
The same will go for the blue block...., Now along with those blocks we will make 4 ~ 6.5" Friendship Star blocks...2~ Blue and 2 Purple, same kind of fabric., so you will make a total of 2 ~ 12.5" blocks and 4 ~ 6.5" blocks.....

Second swap is: Yellow and Green and white all around, not white on white but Bleached Muslin.... 12.5" block....Now with this block you the maker can choose the block you would like to make, please change blocks each month so we won't get the same block over and over.

Please remember:
1. Contact me when you send and receive.
This is important for me to keep up where the swap is at......
2. If you have any questions contact me.

If you have any questions please e-mail me: kittykid_3@yahoo.com and put 2010 in subject line..

I look forward to swapping with you...
Be Safe
Hugs, Louise

Busy, Busy, Busy!!!

Hello everyone,

Well this is what has kept me busy for awhile and I am glad to be finished with it , this is the Dora things I made for my great niece for Christmas, my only regret is using the fabric with glitter on it to shash the blocks together.

I used tonal backing and quilted hearts on it, so if she outgrows "Dora" she can turn the quilt over and have a purple one.....









O.K. I will be right back with some information about our swap for 2010...

Are You Ready For The New Year??

Hey Everyone,
How was your Christmas? We had a nice one but a few members of the family was sick and still are sick but it was a nice one anyway.....I have survived and have started cleaning the sewing room up from all the sewing that went on....My great nieces Quilt, Curtains and pillow turned out pretty and I will upload pictures soon.

I have started working on our swap for 2010, this will be different and there will be triangles, I know, I know...but we need some in this quilt....Hey who has their Red and White blocks set together? if you have yours set together please e-mail me a picture and I will upload it here, mine is not set together yet but I do have the fabrice to set it together but I got to get this one going first.

So stay tuned, I will be back.......
Be Safe,
Hugs, Louise
