Round 5 Sent and Received

I received my squares from Paula D last week. She stitched a beautiful motif in a lovely blue silk ~ so pretty!

And below are the squares that I sent to her. This was a freebie design from Windy Willows called 'Blooming' and I thought a good choice for Spring.

Squares for and from Wendy B

I received my beautiful squares from Wendy B this week. They are beautiful! Thank you soooo much.
I am also sending out my squares to Wendy - so sorry for the delay. I am feeling much better now that I am further along in my pregnancy.
I do so much enjoy doing these squares, but I am going to hold off for a while until baby comes and such. I will visit the blog on a regular basis to see all the beutiful squares.
Thank you Vonna for all your terrific help.

Wendy's Squares Received

I received Wendy's squares this afternoon. Thank you so much Wendy. It's beautiful! Wendy says it is a design from Just Nan. Wendy also sent me a hardanger pattern, really lovely.

Squares Received from Barbara

Look what I received from Barbara by special delivery! She not only noted my love of Prairie Schooler but also alphabets and managed to combine both for me ~ I love it!!! And what a pretty combination of floss colours! Barbara was also so sweet to send me the lovely kitchen magnet and some beautiful postcards of her gorgeous country, Malaysia.

Thank you, Barbara!!!

I finished off my squares last night and I hope to get them to the post office this afternoon.

Please add my name to the next round, ladies. This is too much fun to not take part in again. And thank you, Vonna and Annmarie for organizing this for us stitchers.

Exchange Mailed to Wendy - 11/06/2007

Madam Moderators :) please be informed that I've mailed out my exchange to Wendy this morning. It's got a long way to travel. Wendy, I've registered the package and hopefully it'll get to you safely. I hope you like what I've stitched for you :)

Open 'letter' to Wendy :)

Hi Wendy...and all,

I am simple gal. Please stitch for me anything you fancy. And with designs you have on hand, don't go stashing on my account although that is always a good excuse! ;)

Anything stitched from one's heart and through one's hand is way too good for me!

I'll most likey finish it into a pinkeep, flatfold or a quilted ornament.

Wendy's Likes

Hi All~
How exciting to be a part of this great group! I'm really looking forwards to our first exchange and now that our first partners have been assigned, I thought I better get some info out as to my likes/dislikes.

Hmmm, I'm probably very similar in taste to what everyone else has posted, I'm not overly fond of cartoon-y designs, or really bright colours, I prefer earth-tones, but I do love blue's also. I'm a big fan of Prairie Schooler, Carriage House Samplings, Blackbird Designs, Quaker-styles, alphabets, verses.

I am still undecided about what I will do with my squares, although I will probably end up making them into a quilted wallhanging or small quilt. I hope this helps!
