Fair Square Members

Hello to all Fair Square Members. Hope this finds you all well and off to a great New Year!

I am strongly encouraging all of you to please review the rules of the Fair Square. There has been some exchanges lately that are not up to par for this exchange blog. This blog is called "Fair and Square" for a reason. PLEASE, do not sign up for an exchange if you are unable to oblige by these rules.

When I took over this blog, I made a commitment to myself that I would run it "by the rules". It's as simple as that.

I thank you in advance for your cooperation.

And here's the Fair Squares I stitched for Mairi G - a freebie from Maryse stitched with Anchor 1349 variegated floss.



Round 16 from Mairi G


I received these cute cute Fair Squares from Mairi G in Melbourne just before Christmas, but things were so hectic at home and work over the holiday period, I couldn't blog. Well here they are, and thanks again, Mairi.

Christmas Round from Christine R

Here are the gorgeous squares I received from Christine R, just shortly before Christmas:

Celtic Wreath by The Sunflower Seed
JCS 2009 Ornament Issue

Aren't they stunning? And I love her signature square - I might have to borrow that idea in the future. These lovelies are already in my finishing pile.

Christmas Round received

I received a few days ago the Christmas Round square from April. I got this cute tree sampler. I bet I can turn it into something really cute for the upcoming holidays. Thank you very much. Unfortunately the second square with the stitcher's details was missing.
