"Kris, your Jewel Box is gorgeous. Some of my favorite quilts are ones I put togethr with scraps. The best thing about them is I can look at them and remember the quilts I made with all the different fabrics, kind of like a trip down…"
"Linda, waiting for a needed piece of fabric to come in always seems to take forever. You know that I am just as anxious as you to see the Thimbleberries Pansy quilt done, I love Thimbleberries."

"Chris, I think that the snow just added to the Christmas feel of your quilt. I expect the quilt will be happy to have some minky on its backside, I know that I would after having my picture taken in the snow."
"Linda, have you tried e-bay? I have occasionaly found some Thimbleberries fabric there. I looked thru what I have but none are suitable. Mine are either small pieces or more Autumn colors or Christmas fabric. I love the iron!"

"Riana, I just found out that much to my surprise a few minutes putting things away after using them and straightening up the mess can save hours of hunting and poking around looking for what I need. I just needed that little shove in the right…"

Dee, that's so funny that Riana spotted your list in the picture of…"
"Riana, I know about those little "fort builders" we have a bunch of them in our family. There are quilts that have been used for a lot of things they were not they were not intended for, but they are well loved and that's all I…"

Gail, feel free to take part in all the discussions. Sometime in January I will be asking to see who wants to participate next year. Then I send out questionnaires. Secret Santa sisters will be assigned usually in April. Then you have all year to work on things for your SS box. We mail them out around the first Saturday in December.
This year we had a couple of contests. There are discussions all year trying to find answers to questions that maybe weren't on the questionnaires. We post tutorials for gift ideas. We have general discussions too.
So welcome to the group. Take part so we can get to know you for next year!
Linda
