You're Invited!

Joan  and I are having a

 

and you're invited.  On Saturday, January 23, we'll be staying in to sew something for Valentines Day, and if you're free, we'd love for you to join us!  

We'll be doing posts periodically throughout the day to show our progress, and asking you to do the same!

I'm hoping to make this:

 

"Sweet Treats" quilt!  You can make anything you'd like -- so long as it's Valentine related!!  You can do something small that you can finish in a day.  You can finish something you've already started, or get a start on a larger Valentine project.

We'll do a Parade of the Valentine Projects everyone makes at the party, and of course, there will be a couple of prizes!   

Hope you can join us as we make some decorations for the holiday that celebrates the most important thing in the whole wide world

If you'd like to join us, you can use this

for your blog!  So, post your comment, mark your calendar for Saturday, January 23, check your stash, and start gathering some "love" fabric for your Valentine project!

More info to come!

TTFN,

Kelly

Sounds like fun, sign me up. I have an idea for a cute Valentine quilt. The quilt you're going to do is very cute.

[rene]

There is a quilt I have been planning on making with my Candy Kisses fabric, but it is going to be a BIG project...no way I could do it in a day!

[Gran]

I want to join in. Should be fun.

[Béatrice]

I have an idea for a Valentine quilt, should it be finished THE day, please ? If yes sign me up.

[Béatrice]

Sorry, it'snt clear : should the quilt be started or finished the day ? Thanks.

[Karen]

sounds like fun, and I was just thinking about a project for VD yesterday. I made a darling table runner years ago that I loved and ended up donating to a Race for a Cure event.
Would love to make another, and this could be the time!

[Cathi]

Oh, poo-poo. I'm taking a quilting class that day so I can't join in......but I'll be thinking of you!

[Cindy Carlson]

This sounds like fun. I sure hope hubby doesn't have any expectations of me that day..LOL

Count me in on this one, Kelly and Joan. I'll post your "Valentine Sewing Party" stamp on my sidebar.

If hubby DOES have plans that I have to take part in, I'll be sure and let you know before the 23rd.

Now.........what to sew, what to make, what to tempt myself with...LOL

[Darlene]

I'd love to play along but I don't have a Valentine's Day project. I've made two table toppers already and given one away. Huge Sigh! I'll be on the sidelines cheering you on.

Kelly I love your planned project.

[Stefanie]

I am certainly going to join in! It is going to an awesome excuse to "Hang-out" with the CCQC girls.

So yes....yes...yes!

[call me crazy]

Oh it sounds like fun! I'll have to figure out what to sew... ;-)

[KatieQ]

I've never made any quilty Valentine projects. This is a great idea! Thanks for the great excuse to sit and sew ALL DAY LONG. Count me in. I'm going to start looking for a small project (I'm excited, but not overly ambitious).

[Esther]

Kelly, count me in! I just ordered a Valentine mini quilt pattern and this would be a great way to get me kick-started on it!

Oh, such fun! I can't wait.

[Joan]

Oh wow! I am so excited about sewing with all the girls! Can't wait to see all the projects! I still have to decide on mine.
See you at the party!

[Lisa]

Sounds like fun, count me in!

I can't join in the fun but I'll definitely be peeking in to see what you're up to. It's a great idea! xo, Nan

[Dandelion Quilts]

Hugs, Di & Co

[annie]

Oh my....another fun day that I CANNOT participate in ( wah). But I shouldn't whine, because instead we are having a baby shower for our first Grandchild to be. So thanks for the invitation and looking forward to a time I get to play with all of you fun girls!!! XXX Annie

[Lynda Green]

I would love to join in...

[CJ]

I have plans for the day but I hope to make a red/white scarf for my daughter. I will join in so at least it will get done and I will have time to get it in the mail to her. You know, instead of waiting until the last minute!! It will be one of those easy peasy scarves like I made for her for Christmas. Can't post on my blog though. :0

[Karen Beigh]

Something must have happened that I didn't get my comment on here. I signed up yesterday for the Valentine sewing party. I am working on a redwork stitchery that will be turned into a little wall hanging.

[Shannon White]

This sounds so fun. Will you do another one? I have a wedding to decorate for today then I will be there all night, no time to sew today. Darn it!

[Polly Monica]

How weird! The comment I left at noon with my blog post link didn't show up here!??? Well, maybe this final one will! I finished my little red and beige "Madeline" quilt top. I had such fun sewing it together especially knowing there were many other gals around the country sewing on their projects just as I was! Come on over and check it out! Polly :-) http://auntpollysporch.blogspot.com/2010/01/voila-madeline-is-done.html
