Hi Girls! Our Charming Co-Host Kris of Dandelion Quilts and I want to welcome you to the
Today we'll be stitching on anything that reminds us of our "Word Up" word for the year! Everyone who is doing Word Up this year is welcome to join us! Oh, and we'll be commenting and e-mailing, and snacking, and giggling and watching movies, etc.
To join us, simply do a blog post called "Word Up Sewing Party" and then post your link here:
Periodically throughout the day, update your post to show us how your project is coming along, what you've been snacking on, what movies you've been watching, etc.
Now, each time you update your post, you'll need to come back and link to your post again, so we know that you've updated and can visit!
Kris and I are SO looking forward to stitching with all of you and seeing your projects. I'll be back soon with my post!
TTFN,
Kelly
I just posted, and came to see if you had started yet. I'm going in. See you all soon!

I have posted about the sewing party. I had to put it with other topics. I do hope that is okay. My word is peace although I will be working on another word. I am doing a quilt of many of the words that are on the list.
Have a super great sewing and stitching day.

The mat needs to be quilted :)
Posted by: Lucy | January 29, 2011 at 11:50 AM
Got my post done - probably won't have many updates, as it's hard to show progress on hand quilting, lol!
Posted by: Allie | January 29, 2011 at 12:35 PM
So far so good--- I have pin basted the John Deere baby quilt and ready to start quilting. Happy Partying!

Great time everyone!!! I will join in again. Check out my post to see the "finished" mug mat!
I loved visiting each and everyone of you to see what you were all up to. Have a wonderful, restful weekend.

Hi Kelly! So funny. But after my first link I can't see my otherones. They just disappear. But anyway. I am still here! Thanks so much!
Posted by: Martina | January 29, 2011 at 01:39 PM
I have posted my completion - I am all tuckered out and can't wait to see what everyone made. I sure would rather have been sewing, but you know this move is coming up and living the words is what I am all about right now. Judy C

Thank you Kris and Kelly--It gave me a great excuse to spend my "time" quilting this afternoon. I will take some "time" later tonight to see everyone's treasures.

I forgot to link up earlier today. How silly of me. I'm having fun sewing and I'll take the time soon to go check on everyone. Thanks for hosting Kelly & Kris!

I'm so sorry I missed it :(
Remember that my word was order? This is one of the reasons why! What should have been a quick trip to pick up a TV turned into a day long excursion..I think next time I'll just let hubby go on his own LOL!

Forgot to link here yesterday. It was a great day of peace and some quiet for me. Thank you for such a great party and the time for sewing. Have a super great day and sew lots.
