I also agree, when I teach I always tell new students the same thing. Quilting is about friendship and helping others. San

Amen to that. Brink you have done your share of sewing your heart out for TQS friends in the past, that I know for sure!!! Hugs

That’s what us quilters do without thought of any payback. We put our hearts and love into the stitching for our friends and I think we have proved that everyone in the Sisterhood and TQS are our friends, even though we are scattered all over the world.

Pati,

If you send an email through My Profile (not as a Private Message), I will be able to let you know when it arrives.
Don't worry about the postage, it should be fine. I've already received quite a few with the dated return postage. If you used your address as the 'sender' address on your return envelope, it would go back to you anyway.

Thanks, Debbie

I had sent off my HST (17 bags of 28) in the envelope with a self addressed but it did have a dated return postage....so do you know if that can be used...I haven't heard that they were received like I believe I read somewhere on the blog that we would get a e-mail when they were received. Just asking alot of questions..

Okay Okay rub it in. 225 miles a week we won't get spring until July. Today we are in a blizzard. Tomorrow is supposed to be -29 c I think that is 30 below on any thermometer. Can't wait for my triangles. The LQS I teach at are tired of hearing about triangles, wait until they see what I do with them. Enjoy your sunshine send it north. Joan

Hi all! I think the warmer weather is making us all feel better. What a winter! I want to be downstairs finishing the triangles, but I have to finish cleaning the house for visitors. It is a good thing we do get company sometimes or I would never get the house work all done. I am so enjoying this exchange. Can't wait to get the HST's back. I am using a variety of fabrics. Only made two sheets of the same patterns once. The rest are all different. Have a great weekend.

Thanks Clara, for the # of people in our triangle exchange. I'll be sending 615. Enjoy building the deck.

Oh I am jealous of the warm weather. We got up to 56 today and 50s yesterday but it is short lived. Back down to 30s tomorrow and even colder first of the week. At least it is melting some of this show.
