Birthday Swap 2009, Grps 3 & 4, UPDATE, 8/19/08. CLOSED.

I work in a Medical Records office and the boxes our name bands come in are just the perfect size for 12 inch blocks. They are cardboard but pretty heavy weight. Line with a little tissue paper and they are wonderful.

Oops, haven't seen this post. Carol, on Caroline's post I've advised you that I've sent you my info. This will be fun!

It's Saturday. I'm going to wait until mid-week for the rest of people to send info and confirm they're still in. Then I will make a few changes in the groups. Each group is a little top heavy in some months and bare in other months, which means some months we don't make any blocks, and other months we have several to make. So, I'll make a few changes and even it up. On Friday I will post the revised group lists, earlier if I get responses from those I don't have yet.
So, please if you haven't sent me your information and you still want to be in the swap, send it to me right away. HUGS to everyone, have a great rest of the weekend. carol/kittyquilt

Carol, You can put my birthday in another month if it will make it easier. Maybe a half year birthday? I don't mind celebrating more than once a year....@:)

Thanks, Lawanna, I'll be looking for it. A few people's info was lost when that problem hit Caroline. Thanks for re-sending.

SharonG, wouldn't that be fun!!!!! 1/2 year BD, let's see now, if we have a birthday every 6 months, would we have to add 2 digits to our age?????? LOL, thanks for the offer.

HUGS to everyone, we're gettin' close to have everyone's info, and I'm gettin' excited!!!! carol/kittyquilt

Here is what I store my projects in and I have made a velcro strap to put around them so hey stay very secure if I take them to a class I found the cart at Costco one time and Michaels carries the boxes as well as the Container Store (my favorite place to go browse for storage items)

I was at Target yesterday and found some scrapbooking storage boxes that are 14 X 14 inches and have a carrying handle. They look really good for blocks but at $15.00 a piece are a bit too pricey for me.

I use these Art Bin storage boxes.

Generally I get them at JoAnn's. They are pricey, but I don't buy them unless storage is 50% off or I have a 40% coupon. I've also gotten them at Hobby Lobby, and I suspect Michael's have them too.

They also make a thinner box, but since I try to keep all the fabric for the quilt top in my box, I've not used them.

The ones I get are 7.99 and like everyone I watch for sales or use the 50% off coupons at Michaels
