Pictures Posted from Birthday Block Exchange

There was a good suggestion. If you recently posted a picture of your blocks that you received or your completed quilt or quilt top from the 2009 Birthday Block Exchange, how about listing it here so people will know where to look. I'm sorry that I am not good at linking, but I did post a picture for Kitty under bobbin babes december. Anyone else have some prior thread to call to our attention?

Birthdays in March - 2011 - Birthday Block Exchange
Q

Normally I would not be reporting on the March birthdays this soon, especially with so many that fall late in March, but as you know I will be helping with the triplets soon so I decided I'd better so this now before I don't get to it. Please don't get concerned that if your block is on the way, you are late. I am not saying that. In fact, I think all that have not been received are on their way. For the birthday girls, just remember to post to your thread when all of your blocks have been received and maybe let Kristene know as well so she will be able to determine that March is complete. Piece of Cake March 24 - Marsha (magothyrivergirl) At last count, Marsha had received 9. March 29 - Jeanne (sandlapper_rose) Jeanne has received from 11 people and is still awaiting her block from Cindy. Make a Wish March 18 - Eileen (equilter) - Complete March 24 - Paula (paulah_gardener) From the postings, I believe Paula is still awaiting a block from Cathleen. Ribbons & Bows March 1 - Fay (faytay) Complete March 3 - Sally (salijo) Complete March 27 - Mary (tuppermom) From the postings, I believe Mary is still awaiting blocks from Cindy and Robbi. Thanks all for being so great in trying to keep the schedule. You have made things easy for me and Kristene. I'm sorry I won't be able to wrap up the count for the month of March, but Kristene will be here to assist you. My husband will be here at our home so no problem with any mail still headed my way.

Sept. Birthdays for the Birthday Block Exchange
Q

My slip up, everyone, and I am sorry. There is one more birthday in Patchwork Pines during September. I did not realize that a group had 3 members in a single month and forgot to turn the page on that list when I was posting this earlier. Thanks to a member who sent me a reminder! Here is the correct list Carolina Lilies September 26 - hazelnutbunny Patchwork Pines September 10 - geezerfolks/SharonG/FL September 17 - teresa_nc7 September 21 - Odessa Quilts Galaxy Stars September 10 - grammyp September 21 - Odessa Quilts Best Friends None I guess the good news for Patchwork Pines is that you have two remaining birthdays in October and then your year is finished!

Well, I was the one who added to the post causing it to drop, so I guess I will need to bump it to the top every few days. Sorry!

As you should already know, if you participated in 2010 and sent a block to someone in your group and did not receive a block back, Kristene (tinyteena) is trying to make sure all of this turns out right for you. Some were late getting blocks out for various reasons but are trying to get them out now and if that hasn't worked out, she will get a volunteer to make sure that if you sent your blocks, you get one in return. I hope everyone had a wonderful Christmas! Jeanne

Not sure yet on the border. I usually don't even think about it until I come to that point! :)

That is so nice Grammyp. I love black background quilts, but they do not get along with my white cat!

I'm making a little scrapbook of the 2009 Bobbin Babes birthday block exchange. I'm including the group photos that everyone has posted of their blocks. The only photos I'm now missing are Judy's black & white, Pat's boy's theme, Tara's Southwestern theme, and Debbie's log cabin. Does anyone remember seeing them?

Ankie,
If you will send it to me in an e-mail message I will tranfer it to Photobucket and post it here for you. That's great that you have it almost completed!

Ankie, I posted your photo the first time around and it's still in my photobucket site. So I can post it again.

Here's a photo of the blocks I received.

Here's a picture of mine! I'll probably end up using a sashing but haven't decided yet.

Didn't my wonderful birthday group pick great colors? Block Buddies Rock!
