nah, I don't think anyone wants to...JUST KIDDING!! ROFL. :P

So, we would each send you thirty 6.5 inch squares?
I'm in! I'll edit when I find the fabric I want

i'm in, i will also edit when i find my fabric

tmrhopkins · 06-22-2006, 05:05 PM

I can send in pumpkins ( I guess that's a late summer farmers market item...).

Now we are sending in 30 squares if I am reading correctly?

Does 30 squares sound right? The quilt Margaret had posted was made with 30 squares. I think that will work for us.
Send a SASE with your squares - that should work for shipping.

Please add me - I will look for fabric this weekend. John Deere tractors OK if I find them? I can do two. I may have enough for daisies too - will have to measure fabric I already have.

I would really prefer sending/receiving with a flat rate envelope - I can send you a stamp for one of those if you have a source for f.r.e.'s. I don't trust a regular envelope when sending something soft like fabric.

copmom · 06-22-2006, 09:10 PM

A flat rate envelope is fine - I've seen them at my PO.

I'm not sure how "Farmers' Market" the tractors would be - does anyone else have an opinion on them?

I'll play - I'll update when I get the fabric

lemonsong · 06-22-2006, 11:23 PM

HEY....ME ME ME ME ME ME ME!!!!!

copmom · 06-23-2006, 12:01 AM

Gotcha, gotcha!

lemonsong · 06-23-2006, 01:42 AM

Ummm....yeah can I be a big nerd and ask for another spot please?

hastings · 06-23-2006, 04:52 AM

me, me! I'll edit with fabric ideas in a bit

copmom · 06-23-2006, 10:48 AM

No nerds here - just enthusiastic sewing mamas! I added another spot for you and one for Hastings.

RocketScientist · 06-24-2006, 10:25 AM

I got the John Deere fabric but if there are objections to it, please do let me know. I can substitute *some* people's squares with daisies instead, but I don't have enough for all 30.

I did also get chili peppers, and another fabric with apples, so could you put me down for 3, please?

copmom · 06-24-2006, 11:04 AM

Margaret - no one has commented on the John Deere, so it's a go!

You've got 3 spots now!
