a heads up to Sandy. . .

Hi Sandy,

Just to let you know that your squares will be sent mid-September. I apologize upfront that they won't be mailed by 9/7 but we are in the process of moving and honestly, it isn't feasible to get yours finished and mailed ontime for this round. I hope you understand.

Feel free to stretch the deadline on my end as well ~ I will post again when they are sent. Many thanks for your patience!!!

Sandy's Fair Squares ...

... arrived today and I LOVE them!!! Wooo Hoooo... Thank you so much, Sandy... They are gorgeous and just perfect for me... :-)

City Stitcher, Country Stitcher by LHN

Stitched by Sandy for Lizzy...

Sandy stitched part of City Stitcher, Country Stitcher by Little House Needleworks for me... This is one of my favourite Designs by LHN, Sandy and I am tickled pink with them... I love the way you stitched the second square... I haven't decided yet what I'm going to make mine into... pinkeep, needlebook... friendship quilt... the possibilities are endless, however, whatever I decide to make them into, I know I will treasure them always!

I have so enjoyed getting to know you this round, Sandy... You are a special Lady and a lovely Soul and I am so happy to call you friend... :-) We share so many things, you and I... and I know the bonds of friendship started through this exchange will only grow stronger over time...

And a special thank you to Annemarie and Vonna for starting this special exchange... It's so wonderful to have the opportunity for stitching friends, old and new, to come together and share our love of stitching, and a wee bit of ourselves, through the lovely treasures we stitch for one another... The bonds we make as stitching friends will ever intertwine... silken threads through time...

I am looking forward to the next round, Ladies...


Love in stitches...
Lizzy

My squares on on their way to Lizzy....

be on the lookout. DH took them to the P.O. for me today, nothing like waiting until the last minute. Hope you like them. I loved doing this exchange and getting to know you. :D I'll be on the lookout for mine and let you know when they arrive. Thanks.

Watch the Post Sandy...

Your Fair Squares are zipping their way South to you... :-) I am at work, so they had an armed escort to the post office this morning! ;-) I so enjoyed stitching them for you and I hope you'll like them.

I'm looking forward to the next round...

Love in Stitches...

Hi everyone....

I'm Sandy and I'm from Louisiana. I like Quaker designs, seasonal, samplers, welcome sayings, things with ABC's, religious themes, gardening and flowers. I don't do animals, dragons, mystical, castles, cartoons types. My favorite colors are jewel tones like reds, greens, blues, burgandy's, etc. I likes some pastels if it's in the pattern that's fine but I'm more of a darker color person.

My favorite designers are Little House Needleworks, any Quaker designers, Prairie Schooler, Blackbird Designs, Shepherd's Bush, Lizzie Kate, Bent Creek, Heart In Hand, and most recently I've discovered french designers like a mon ami Pierre. There's so many more but I won't bore you all.

I'm not sure what I'd like to do with my squares. I'm very finishing challenged so I may get them made into a quilt if I can find someone who quilts as I don't know anyone personally. I would love to have a Friendship quilt with different pieces from different stitchers from around the world.

I don't mind my partner giving me any hints whatsoever as to what they'd like stitched for their square either. Anything will help me out.

Can't wait to start the exchange and thanks for having me. You can go to my blog and see some of my recent finishes there also. http://sandysstitchingandstuff.blogspot.com/
