Hi Moms!

I was wondering if any of you would like to do a quilt block exchange with our dds.

See, one of my dds has no interest in doing "crafty" things and I have been wanting to do a quilting project with them. So I thought if I could encourage her with this idea that maybe she would be game to do it! Oh how sneaky can we moms get?!

I was thinking maybe we would set a size on the block and what pattern could be up to each girl. I was also thinking of maybe doing something that had to do with what state each is from or maybe dds favortie saints? And if they don't want to quilt (sew) a square they could even do a block with fabric pens, or embrodiery? Just starting this idea.....

So what do you think?

God bless,

Great idea! We were involved in an exchange with countries from all over the world and one thing each class included was a quilt square. It was really, really neat.

We would love to do it.

Blessings,
Krisann

Oh good! I was hoping some would want to do this. I have a flu bug today. So I will check back in this weekend and see if anyone else wants to do this.

Thanks and God bless,

I am so glad to see so many want to do this. I am still under the weather so I will post next week with a couple of ideas. But please jump in with your ideas.

God bless,

Dear Ladies,

I have not forgotten. But I have been under going some health issues and will be having treatments for the next month so I am going to put this project on hold for a while. But I do hope I can bring it up again in a month or 2 and we can still go thru with this idea. My dds are very excitied about it, but I really have to limit myself until physically I am better.

Thanks and God bless,
Jackie
