Happy St. Patrick's Marilyn and everyone! Love your quilts and the closeups, Marilyn!

Happy St. Patrick's Day to you too Marilyn. Love the sentiments on the little quilt beside it!

Limbania obviously won't have the same time to complete as the rest of us, perhaps she can forward a photo of how far she's got and complete it when she can. Knowing her I bet she's been beavering away while she can.

Thinking of you girl, keep strong we're all here.

Chinese Whispers alive and well... Thanks for the update, Maureen! Time's getting closer...

Another stage over and just over a year to go. Glad to hear you have your quilt back safe, it's going to be an anxious time when each one is posted. I shall be asking lots of questions nearer the time, thanks again Maureen.

Thanks for the update Maureen. Good to know that Marilyn's quilt has arrived safely.

I have received my quilt back from Marilyn via Lorna. Marilyn decided it was easier and more cost effective to send it this way as it was going to cost quite a lot to send it straight to me. Lorna has agreed to this.

As you know when each of you in the States have finished with the inspirational quilt (the one you received from the person in front of you) you send it back to me. Marilyn sent mine back to me, Limbania will send Marilyn’s to me, Nancy will send Limbania’s to me etc: etc. You will also need to email me your 100 words about your quilt.

As you cannot put the name of the quilt on the label when you send it to the next person, you could put in a label with the name of your quilt and I will sew it on to your quilt when I get it.

When you are sending it to Lorna you need to wrap the quilt in a way that Lorna will not be able to see it, dark plastic bag, brown paper - Marilyn put the quilt in a Priority Mail envelope, sealed it and then put that in another Priority Mail envelope. The cost, for Marilyn, was $10.40 + 0.75 for tracking = $11.15. Of course this depends on the weight of the quilt. It cost Lorna approx. $3.60 (round it up to $5) to then post it to me so that will have to be factored in. I think Marilyn just put the $’s inside for Lorna.

I have also posted this in page 1 with the rules so you alway know where to find the information.

And make sure the batteries are charged!

Now that car would seriously embarrass the kids if they were picked up from school in it What fun!

Love the car Terrie. Can you imagine picking your kids up from school in that!

Lorna, enjoy the show and don't forget your camera.

Never been to the Duxford show Lorna. Take some pictures and tell us about it when you get back. Our group went to Grosvenors Edinburgh Spring Festival on 22nd February. There were some beautiful quilts and also a lot more traders than usual, which meant it was very packed.

Lorna...great to " see you" back, too !

Maureen, Loved the pictures of the quilts and hearing about your group.

Wow, Terrie, cool car!

I think I will be heading to the Duxford quilt show this weekend if I have my dates right. It's just down the road a little ways.

For your entertainment! While we wait for the Whispers to travel...
