    Exclamation Quilting club members - please read

    I'm looking at some things I'd like to do for the quilting club and would like some suggestions.

    Here are a few I'm thinking about - please let me know what you think. Then how about some suggestions you'd like to see that I can take a look at.

    *fat quarter trains - they have been really successful and fun

    *treasure box - I really liked putting this together but it seemed to take forever to get moving. I'd like to do another couple in the fall, but possibly have 2 going instead of 1. What do you all think?

    *block swap - haven't done this yet but wondered what you all thought? If we do a block swap, it doesn't matter how much quilting you've done and will probably have a couple going on so that you don't have to make that many blocks.

    *contests -these have all been fun. The scramble one was the best so be prepared for another one.

    *quilting swap - we haven't done this yet either. I'd do it something similar to Sara's monthly swaps. What do you think

    *quilting pattern swap - again we haven't done this one yet.


    Those are a few I'm thinking about. How about some suggestions

    I honestly think all your ideas are great!!

    I've done the fat quarter train and contests and yes they are lots of fun. Haven't done the treasure box so I don't know.....was it just slow CJ?

    Block Swap ~ does that mean that we each make a block and trade it with someone else or how does that work?

    Quilting Swap and Quilting Pattern Swap ~ I think that sounds like a real neat idea, with the quilting swap everyone would get something different and if we knew what the other's colours etc. were we could personalize it!

    I like all of them. I am not very confident in my blocks, so if I did one of those, the person who got it would have to be understanding! LOL
