Christmas FQ Swap

Also, get ready for October's Block of the Month. For all of you newbies for each finished block you make and post a picture of from any Block of the Month area a FQ and your name is thrown in a basket. At the end of the quarter (which will be December 1st) one of the names that are in the basket gets drawn and that person gets all the FQs in the basket. An easy way to get your stash built!!

SharonS needs your orphan blocks!!!! We are supporting "Project Linus" this quarter and she is putting all our orphans to good use. So dig in your piles and pull out your orphans and send them on to SharonS. Need her snail mail? Go to 'Memberlist' at the top of the page, find her name and PM (private message) her. Can't find her name? Go to 'Memberlist' and change the 'sort method' to username (this will put the list in alphabetical order), then just look for 'SharonS'.........

Under 'Did You See The Great Sale at....??' there are sites for sales on fabric and other things that we all 'need'...... go on over and check them out.

Under 'Christmas-All Year Long' there are gift, card and ornament ideas for Christmas. If you have a great site or idea get on over there and share it with us. We need all the help we can get because Christmas is just 3 months away (that means 90 days)!!!

For anybody that has not done so, please go over to the 'Members Likes and Dislikes' thread and answer the questions. This helps all of us when we are swapping to give you what you like instead of something that you will use to dust the furniture with. LOL!!!

Come join in the swapping fun!!

And as always

Have a great quilting week,

My Quilting Buddies Gang
