UFO Block Swap  #2  February 2013

do you have any UFO blocks? come on, I know you do... don't feel bad - join this swap

you will send a UFO block to another swap member who will finish it for you (their choice of finish - it could be a pillow cover, wall hanging, mug rug etc.)  and send it back to you - check one UFO off your list!

you can still join if you do not have a UFO block - many of us will have extras we can give you LOL - let me know if you have a block and if you have ones to spare

I need your name and whether you have UFO blocks to share or not

new deadline to sign up is February 1, 2013

Members: 14
Latest Activity: Apr 30

Swap Stuff!

  • you are to have your unfinished block in the mail to your partner by February 15, 2013 (is that enough time for you to find it?? LOL - you know it's there somewhere)
  • it should be a block 12 inches square or less
  • it can be a block that you were going to use for a full quilt but never finished - it can be a traditional block or an art piece
  • the block itself should be finished in its entirety (not sandwiched or bound though) so that all the person who receives it has to do is decide how to finish it
  • those of you on the receiving end of the block decide what to do with it - anything goes but you must finish the project and post it  by April 15, 2013 - you could just quilt and bind it; or you could applique on it, or thread sketch; make it bigger, change the shape; make a pillow cover, wallhanging, potholder, mug rug - you decide!  I just want us all to get a completed piece back, however big or small.

if I have left anything out or there are any questions, please ask 

please save a picture of the block you send and the completed one you receive and forward to me when all is done so I can create an album and hopefully have more people the next time Signed up so far:

Thank you Diane. I am not sure if Lisa has received my block as yet though. I have hers and am still thinking.

Comment by Sharon on April 17, 2013 at 5:51pm

I am still thinking about what to do with Laura's block also, I just have two many ideas. 

Comment by Laura Mars on April 14, 2013 at 10:31pm

May sounds sew much better as I am stumped on fabric to match with Sharons block! She sent me the most amazing star block that you'd absolutely be in awe the way she was able to make each point matched with the pattern on the fabric! I have a few ideas to do and I think she'd enjoy but I just can't seem to get the fabric quite right!

I think we should all extend the deadline on this to May 15 - all in agreement? Motion passed!
Comment by Sharon on April 13, 2013 at 5:34am

I am still thinking of what to do  with Laura's block but I am going to get it done this weekend! Hopefully!!

Comment by Sandy B /AUS on April 10, 2013 at 4:37pm

I am not sure Diana - I think it is though. I was thinking your bag would be great for spring - being in those colours. Your clock is in our spare room looking so sweet on the wall. Now I need to make a quilt to match/coordinate. But first new paint on the walls and new carpet - yes this house needs some updating - it has been 20 years since it was painted inside.

Comment by Diane Dugan on April 10, 2013 at 8:38am

well that's a lot faster than my delivery, right Sandy?

Comment by Sandy B /AUS on April 8, 2013 at 4:12am

Lisa's UFO has arrived in Australia - now I am hoping for inspiration. But first I must remember to take a photo of it. Lisa could you do the same for my UFO please? - I forgot to before I posted mine to you.

Comment by Diane Dugan on April 7, 2013 at 9:36am

oh thank goodness Terri - yours is still an idea in my head at this point LOL

and please publish a pic if you have received your finished UFO, in addition to sending me one for the Smilebox

Comment by Terri D. on April 7, 2013 at 8:28am

Diane, I haven't forgotten you or the swap. Will get it done when I get back from Florida so should have it to you by the end of the month.

Gotta run, lots to do.
