Deanna, good for you getting…"

Gail Brown commented on Christine Brown's group UFOs"Love the Bee quilt. I found some machine embroidered blocks on e-bay that have bee hives, just bees and one that has bees on a flower. My Grand Daughter who lives in Virginia bought a 40 acre old farm last year and she wants to have some…"

Gail Brown commented on Diana Engdahl's group Swapping "FUN" is for Everyone"Beauty is in the eye of the beholder, or so they say. I just used some ugly fabric that had set on my shelves for years. Guess what? It is gorgeous in the quilt, it ended up being the thing that brought it all…"
Gail Brown commented on Diana Engdahl's group Swapping "FUN" is for Everyone"Carla, the tea towel thing sounds like fun. Maybe we could start around Feb. or March. Need to get a few more things finished by then. I',m kind of slow so it takes me a while."
Gail Brown commented on Christine Brown's group UFOs"Barbara, that's quite a car. When I was very young, back in the olden days I went to demolition derbies. It was a lot of fun. I love your neighborhood, reminds me of where I grew up, same style of homes and lots of trees.
Zoe, that…"

Zoe, please show us the John Wayne quilt. The Gypsy Wife looks like the ultimate scrap quilt. Also good for orphan blocks.
Linda so sorry you are having such…"
Gail Brown commented on Christine Brown's group UFOs"Linda, so sorry to hear about your fall. You have been doing a lot getting ready for your move. Resting up for a few days is not a bad idea, just hate that it has to be this way.
Kris, love the baby quilt. It gave me some ideas for…"
Gail Brown commented on Christine Brown's group UFOs"Beth, Hope you have a wonderful day. Happy Birthday!

Gail Brown commented on Christine Brown's group UFOs"David, we have a gentleman in our guild as well. The first quilt he made was from his son's uniforms after he was killed in Afganistan. Then he made several more for family members. There was a story about him showing his…"
Gail Brown commented on Christine Brown's group UFOs"Mary, that's why I gave up on knitting, I can't seen to get it loose enough. I once made a beautiful pair of argyle socks for my brother. I was so proud of myself, the first time I knitted something more that a scarf. I…"
Gail Brown commented on Christine Brown's group UFOs"Elizabeth, that is a beautiful quilt, especially with the pieced border. I have several of Debbie's patterns that I have collected, just haven't started them yet. I am determined to get most of what I have started done. I…"
Gail Brown commented on Christine Brown's group UFOs"Linda, so happy the house sold so fast. Now you have to go shopping. It's really neat that you will be able to get together with Kris.
Kris, I love the sunflowers. They are so bright and cheerful, one of my favorites.
I'm…"
Gail Brown commented on Christine Brown's group UFOs"Mary, I trust all went well since he is already home and getting into trouble..I guess it's true that you can't keep a good man down.
Dee, I'm sure you're going to have a great time with that sweet baby.
Riana, I love the leaves,…"
Gail Brown commented on Christine Brown's group UFOs"Zoe you sure have been busy. Love the John Wayne.

Linda Koller said… 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
