[Snow White]

Hi, I'll take paper piecing on both groups.
thanks!
Michelle

 

[goofymom/pop]

Quick question.

This has always confused me......Borders at least 11 inches to be used in both books.....my books are always 12x12 as are alot of my friends, couldnt we have the borders be 12 inches long? Maybe I am the only one using these bigger books. If so I am sorry to ask a dumb question.


By the way I am in on the spring one and I will sign up for paper piecing. So at two a piece I need to make 20 of them....is that correct?

[RRBB]

Sounds like you came up with a great plan Maggie. I'd like to sign up for Tags in the Spring group please.

 

[Spinning]

Hi I would like to do an Easter Topper and spring nuggets

 

[nicurn]

goofymom/pop, did you want to sign up for borders in the spring group? I was confused by the mention of paper piecing after the question about borders. maggie

 

[PamCo88]

I would like to do Squares in Both.

 

[Tink464]

Hi, I'm very new to swaps, this will only be my second one. I would like to participate in the spring swap. I would like to do the squares. Please let me know if that is okay.

[PamCo88]

I guess I missed the spring squares so... Could I do the Spring Journal Boxes instead?

 

[goofymom/pop]

Sorry I guess I must have been typing at the same time as Snow White. I did want paper piecing, but will do the spring borders instead. Not a big deal. thanks for including me. But is 12 inches ok??? If not let me know.

[Pammy jo]

I'd like to do Easter frames. Now that's something new and different for me isn't it??
Pammy Jo

 

[WDWMom]

I think borders are free for both and I will do those. Or maybe I could do journaling boxes. Let me know what is available.

Sue

 

[nicurn]

goofymom/pop, if you would prefer paper peicing, that's not a problem. Just let me know what you would like to do.

wdwmom, I put you down for borders in both groups. If you would like to do journal boxes instead (or as well) let me know. thanks, maggie

 

[Spinning]

Nicurn???
Do I do one topper for each person or 2 I never made these in a swap before

 

[nicurn]

hi spinning, one topper per person is fine. So you would make 10 easter toppers. maggie

 

[Piper]

I guess I'll take the photo mats in both swaps--might as well jump in with both feet!

 

[Piper]

Looks like I missed it that the frames were taken in the holiday--so if it is OK, I will do journal boxes for that--Easter.
