crocus999 OFFLINE Posts: 1909 Thank you received: 149	This is going to be such a colourful quilt - spools or drools or whatever. Does anyone have a really cool idea for what their background is gonna be? The spools/reels on Edyta's book seem quite muted compared with what I see on this forum. I love bright and clear colours - but what about a background?

Here's pics of mine, that I mailed yesterday. They are brighter than these pics show. First pic is a selection of 4, but I made 82 of these!

Second pic is how I labeled them. It was so easy to chain stitch the paper labels on a la Margo. The only thing I did differently, was to curve onto and off the sides so that it was easy to chain them. Here's a section before I cut them apart. I used the largest stitch length I could on my FW, and it went really fast!

Do you know that your name in French means "never"?

(my new signature went somewhere into cyberspace.....??)

Yes, but the origin of my name is nothing like French! My name is 'Jamai' - I was the fourth of five daughters and my Dad's name was Jay. When I came along they had a friend who was "Mai", so the just put them together! Really unique and unusual - like me?

Jamai--very cool story behind your name.

Good grief... wish I was that creative...hadn't given anything a thought other than the Rosemary's original idea. Glad I'm in this company so my mind gets expanded some.

Mind expanding....mind altering???

It is all the starch sniffing we do!

That or chocolate!

What am I still doing here? :shock: it is way past my bedtime, at least the tempory tidy up in the sewing room has improved the look of things & I found my geese for my 'Batty' hst quilt -I'd better get it finished, so I can take it to show Lorchan & Ricky in April, as well as for the book.
