Are we talking about another 1st grade picture? Cause we have all been fooled before!!! Oh I believe the rest of us would cut for the gardners just to see this! I personally would be happy to see your quilts more than anything.
Oh, ye of little faith! LOL Do I sense a multitude of Doubting Thomas'? I don't care who cuts her triangles, but Miz D. B. Felicia has to make a quilt, too! LOL
The whole point of the swap is to make the quilt. If Felicia is gonna wiggle out of the cutting by going on a silly old vacation, then she has to pony up the quilt. And they have to be bonafide Garden Club members, no digging up lapsed BC members! LOL
Sorry Rose...you'll just have to keep those photos hidden for another 10 years. Your secret quilts remain your secrets to keep...lol Not only am I going on vacation...it's yard time!!! We are running behind due to the looong looong winter. We have sunshine finally beaming down...and my other passion is now calling. Flower gardening!!!!!!!!!!
You all go ahead and have fun with this one! If I didn't take the plunge on the "jar blocks" nothing will derail me at the moment.
It is super nice to celebrate the new 1000th member. Bravo to you guys!
G'night to all.......
poof*

Schworry Ladies... no bribes...lol I don’t take them...and I don’t give them...lolol . Except for MAYBE when I was potty training my son who is now 27...lololol He was a stubborn little cuss years ago... ..lol I just don’t get it to be honest. I love to share my projects with my friends! My quilting “cohort” lives about 2 miles from me and we are constantly sharing new quilts - blocks or ideas back and forth (not to mention FABRIC SCORES). As for my friends who live farther away...(or even my online friends) we are constantly zapping email photos around about what works...what doesn’t work... and of course.. all photos of finished projects. If nothing else...it’s great camaraderie! We have a new administrator at work and she came into my office last week and asked about the group of quilting ladies I have coming to my office weekly (all are either cancer survivors, in treatment or caregivers of cancer patients). I thought for a second I was going to get a lecture for how large the group is now. Every Thursday we have the library just covered in quilt tops in various stages. It's a total hoot! Instead of being in trouble (which I worried about)...she asked me to bring in a project to show her..(which I did)...and now..SHE wants to be part of the group! She even got the name of the woman I took my original sampler class from and is signing up for a class! For me... it’s all about sharing and friends keeping friends inspired.
Felicia ... sorry you have to pass on the swap, you will be missed . .. but there will be another one coming down the line that you are able to join sometime soon I hope ...
I love the story about your quilting ladies at work ... it sounds like a WONDERFUL idea ... wish I could drop in on you gals ...
