Stitchery of the Month #1

Do we have to go ahead and finish the edges and everything, or just do the stitching and leave it as it?

No, you don't have to finish the edges. This way your partner can use it in their own projects. So you just do the stitching.

I'm thinking about a theme, I promise I will have one before partners are assigned! :-)

I'm in. Will go with Nursery Rhymes. It's been pointed out that they are diff all round the world, well, so be it. My grandchildren will have an international quilt when I'm finished. After all, how different can Humpty Dumpty be? Please don't stress over rhyme lines, just characters will do fine. As for colour choice - let it be very colourful, either bright or pastel, senders choice. Please don't hesitate to pm me if you have any ??? about my block.

My theme is flowers; color (or colors) is sender's choice. I'm going to use fairy fabrics to encompass these into a wall hanging, so the flowers can be realistic or fantasy. I'd also like my partner to be sure to sign and date the block, where and how is her choice. Just be sure to put it on the front, and not in the seam allowance! :-} I like to be sure the artist gets full credit for her work! Thanks for a great swap idea!

I picked a theme and I am quite excited about it! :-) I am in another swap for "chocolate" and "raspberry" fabrics and have been finding some really nice ones. In planning what to do with them, I decided to make a Valentine's Day Quilt. So, my theme is Valentine's Day and I would like any hearts , love or any other "valentiney" things and in reds, pinks and green please. Any range of red to pink and green too if you think the piece requires it. (I was thinking of leaves on flowers and my border print is brown and pink (excuse me...raspberry!) with green vines and leaves on it. I think that should be pretty easy for anyone to find designs to fit that theme, I hope so anyway! Now I can't wit to get started! :-)

My theme is Halloween, in orange and black. Anything that is Halloween-y, black cats, pumpkins, jack-o-lanterns, ghosts, witches, bats, candy, etc.!

My theme is cats. I changed my mind about the colors. Just use the bright colors you think you need for this embroidery. I only want to know which embroidery threads you used, so sent me a note with that info please with the embroidery.

There are a lot of great themes for this swap. I cannot pick a favorite, I like them all!

my theme is Christmas and my colours are Red, Green and Gold or Blue and Silver, please only use one or the other red green and gold OR silver and blue

if this confuses you please pm me

I know I'm past the deadline to post this, but incase my partner hasn't started, here goes:

theme ideas: circles, trees, houses I love doodled type designs, a mix of stitching with felt and / or fabric.

Colors: light green (no mint or seafoam please), leaf green, sky blue, aqua, red, orange

I am going with mushrooms as my theme. Was thinking about bats or spiders my other favourites. But Mushrooms it is. All colours are welcome and all styles.
