See Apron Block Swap - UPDATED!

[sewcarolyn]

yup I ordered the magazine too....but NOT NOW!!! I am overwhelmed

[WeSignificant]

I would love to do something like this but am completely booked through Sept. In addition to my quilting my boss wants me to go to work and I have a very active little scout who lives with me and will be bridging to Boy Scouts next month. He in fact said this morning when I told him the Big Basin trip was next weekend, "Boy we haven't had a weekend off!"He has Valcore today and is going to spend the afternoon with his bio Dad. So if we could delay that would be great, otherwise, I will watch from the wings and enjoy all of yours.

I received the magazine in the mail yesterday. How fun to come home from a shop hop and have a new "old" magazine to look through. I would love to do this but I need to wait until late summer too..I want to learn to appliqué before starting on a swap that requires it.

It is very cute

[MAWmum]

I agree with everyone I REALLY want to do this swap just lets wait until later in the summer to do it. PLEASE!!!

[Georgiapeach]

Oh this is so cute! I'd love to join if it's later in the summer, I have too much going on right now to add anything to my plate. If you decide to do it later, though, I'd love to be included!

this is adorable - it would make a great swap could we embellish the aprons oh what fun - i agree many of those already posting the deadline would have to be awhile from now

am off to look for the magazine

[SewSew]

Do we have a hostess/host for this swap? I would love to do this swap but, I agree, late summer would be best.

Maybe once someone decides to host the swap, she could go on and choose a date (later in the summer?), and decide of the specifics-- how many blocks, what type of fabric, etc-- that way, anyone that wanted to join could go on and order the magazine, choose their fabrics, and work on them whenever they are in the mood or have time, but just keep them till closer to the swap date...? Might be a good idea to send out a reminder pm when the date gets closer too...

I'm with Gardenquilter--- these would be adorable with different embellishments!

ok i have been looking and i have the magazine this is so cute - in the magazine the blocks are 6" finished and is a wall hanging of 24 x 31 they are adorable! and omg the the embellishments! , lace, buttons, ruffles, beads, ribbons,looks like iron on decal, ric rac - so adorable the sky would be the limit on this one - the fabrics are mixed it seems to me look and see what yall think in the mabagize some are 30's then the black with cherries and floweres looks like now - the polka dot looks like minnie mouse - oh how awesome a quilt

this is 12 blocks but you could do more 20 would be approx 31 x 40 25 would be more approx 40 x 50 - of course i am so excited i am adding in my head and that lol could be dangerous - this is just to die for! If itchin does not want to HOST it then i would love to!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
