"Jar Quilt" - In progress; no further sign ups

I have selected fabric, washed, dried, pressed and will cut soon.
I am sorry to have been "out in the woods" with this swap, but my local interenet provider made some corporate changes, and let many customers down. If I am still allowed to join with you all, I will do my best not to let you down.

You are #24 on the sign-up list.
Glad you made it back

I need your name, address, phone # and email. (P.M. them to me. and I'll send you my address.)

And -- you're good to go.

Post 153 has a list of all the prints selcted so-far and everyone has tried to find something different from the others.

List your prints here, so I can add them to the list.

Try to read through all of the posts made on this thread so you get caught up on any changes that may have occurred.

I have selected a birds & pomegranates print, strawberries, a fruit/veggie mix print.

Yes----sort them out into 28 bundles and attach your forum name and State to each bundle.......preferably with a safety pin.

Okie dokie...I just have a question....do we do 28 total now and does that include the extra ones for the hostess?

27 Plus 1 = 28 Total

Okay, I'll get busy cutting this weekend, and will make my final choice by next week.

YES, I do have my fabric. I'm still busy, busy but the fabric is now washed and sitting on my ironing board waiting to be pressed. I was going to finish it today but I had to work on 2 clients' projects, go to the bank, drive 45 min. to pick up more GS cookies for our troop, tidy up the house, wash 2 loads of laundry, start my pepper and eggplant seeds, take DD to gymnastics and conference with her coach, help the kids with homework, and by then I was just burned out. I guess I should go to bed now, huh?

Tomorrow's schedule seems a bit lighter; I'll try very hard to get it done and mailed by Saturday at the latest.

Well, just thought ya'll would enjoy knowing that I am an IDIOT!!!



Jumped up, went to town to get feed, ran by the PO to pick up a package and realized I DIDNT HAVE MY SQUISHY WITH ME!!!
So, it was too late to turn around and go back.
Will try to make it to town tomarrow, if I cant get loose it will be Monday before it gets sent.

I hate when I have those stupid moments......

Swampgirl's Squishy arrived today!

5 down, 22 to go!

It troubles my soul that some of you are BUYING envelopes for mailing your fabric.

All of the post offices around us have these mailing envelpoes avaiable FREE of CHARGE!

http://shop.usps.com/webapp/wcs/stor...tionUsageId=-1

They are Sturdy and big and I've never seen any problems resulting from them being used on our Swaps.

Besides being FREE, they are so much less BULKY that some of the Big, Padded envelopes that I sometimes receive from some of you. And, those Big, Bulky envelopes add more weight to the total postage cost.

Please, check out the envelopes that I've given you the link for.
Before you spend money to BUY an envelope, check with your PostMaster.

If he has none, give him this computer link and ask him to order some for his patrons at his Post Office.

I have my fabric and will be getting it ready this weekend.

Just ordered my third fabric. It is carrots on yellow. I found it on craftconn.com in the bargain basement, if anyone wants to have a peek.
They will ship today and it will take about 1 wk. according to them. Maybe it'll come sooner, I hope.

Margo

PS anyone who wants this sinus crud can have it......

Ok, I'm back! I've been a terrible swapper this time around. Please forgive me.

I've read through the lists and I didn't see this fabric, although I could have missed. I've been known to do that.LOL
Does anyone have feathers?


It's mighty slim pickens around here, but I'm not giving up. There's a place across town that should have received a new shipment and I'll check them out this weekend.

Tallpines, thanks for the link for the envelopes. I will be checking at the post office chance I get.

I'll check back soon. I'm resizing and printing pictures today. I have the frames all washed and can't wait to get them hung.
