Melanie have you sent your green and purple strips in. Let me know when you ship them. I am keeping track of the Post Office. Look at your message post I will send you my address.

Yes, Melanie there is still openings. I have two openings in green Batiks, openings in white, pink and purple. I can place you in what ever color you want, just let me know which ones.

Thanks

Melanie,Why don't you send out the first 11 blocks you received instead of waiting for all.Yesterday was the deadline!

Thank you Lyn and Barbara.  No Joannes or Hancocks in a hundred mile radius.  I will work it out, there is always Wal-Mart (yuck) and ebay works too.  Happy quilting to all.

Thanks for adding me to the Christmas Block Swap. I have my blocks made and can't wait to see what I get back. Will need your address.

Thank you Melanie, for accepting my friend request, I look forward to learning to swap :).

I would like to be in the second group for both the Christmas Block swap of 12 blocks as well as the calendar block swap.  I am no too "savy" on the posting on the computer yet but hope you get this message. :)

I see that you have 'friended' me, but don't know if I'm counted in for the Christmas Block Swap. Would love to participate.

Hi Melanie. I don't get how to add you to my friends list but I would like to join the Christmas block exchange.

Hi Melanie,

Have you received your FQ Swap #2 gift yet? I hadn't heard and it's been mailed a good while....I haven't received mine yet either...

It sounds like so much fun.

Welcome Quilter Friend!

Just wanted to pop in to say “hello” and introduce myself. I’m Linda Hubalek, fellow quilter and author from Kansas. Books about pioneer women are my specialty, with a cooking or a quilting theme mixed into each historical fiction series.

My Trail of Thread historical fiction book series, written in the form of letters sent back home, describes my ancestors’ wagon trail journey and homesteading in Kansas. Each book mentions twelve old-time quilt patterns, and I put drawings of them in the back of the books.

So if you like to read—besides quilting—please enjoy my blog and book excerpts on my website. Besides printed as paperbacks, my ten books are also available for your Kindle or Nook.

I have about a dozen quilts made by my great grandmother, (that we used all the time when I was a kid) so I’m into antique quilts and patterns. What kind of quilts and patterns do you like to work with?

Happy quilting and reading!

Linda Hubalek
