HI Barbara,
I was out of the loop, as we had no electricity or internet. When you get a chance can you tell me what to do with the two quilt centers I have. One only has one border added so far, (Melissa's) and should have two before it got to me and one only has two borders, (Pat's) and should have had three before it got to me. I should be sending out Sue's Thursday. I found a boo-boo that has to be fixed before I send it out. .

Hi Barbara and Linda and Susie and Nana !
I am from Group 5 and I thank Linda for helping us out. I also want to thank Nana and Susie for helping out the other groups. Sounds like we are back on track.
However, I do have one question. I have three quilt tops right now. The one I have had the longest will be ready to mail on Saturday. I have to remove part of the border and resew it-I had a boo-boo with the tension, about six inches are too tightly sewn. But, I will mail this to Pat on Saturday for sure. I can mail the other two to Linda or sew a border onto Melissa's-(just a beauty), and send it to Linda when I am done. I would be mailing Pat's-a Japanese themed quilt-(so elegant) to Linda first.
1. Melissa's has one border on it so far. (I know exactly what I will be adding and have the fabric ready to go).
2. Pat's has two borders, so far.
Hi Linda!
Sew glad to know you! And thanks for your help with our group 5. I was feeling a little crazy, lol, that I had three quilt centers and now I feel like it will be okay.Also, all the extra time we have will be so helpful, don't you agree?

Hi Candace and Barbara.
I like to make little charts to see where we are. I have been reading the posts to determine the order of the team. I think I have it from what you wrote, but don't know why you would have 3 quilts right now. Here is my breakdown:
You're sending Sue's quilt to Pat. And I'm assumiing that Liz had put on the first border and you the 2nd. Pat will be the 3rd and Melissa the 4th.
You have Melissa's with 1 border; you will add the 2nd and send it to me. I will add the 3rd, Pat the 4th.
You have Pat's and will put on the 3rd border. Send it to me and I will put on the 4th.
The only one I am not sure of is yours. Liz would have put on the 4th border. But if I read right somewhere, Sue might put on the final one. And if that is right someone is adding 2 unless it comes to me along the way.
Barbara, am I "on point" or did I just add confusion to the gumbo :)
Linda ,I think so ,I didn't know that these tops had not been this far behind. I'm so sorry ladies . As I don't have the llist with me at this moment I'll have to check and get back with you Linda . I'll be able to tell you more on thursday ,once I look over the list. Barbara
EAT!! SLEEP !! QUILT!!
those of you in groups 4 and 5 let me know if you will need more time,I didn't know that most of these tops were so far behind.I'm so very sorry that you all have been put in this situtation .but you are also wonderful for helping out to get it fixed. I will be on retreat as of Friday, but I will check in from time to time ,so if you have any real pressing problems write me a message ,help each other out as best you can, hopefulll some of the more experienced ladies will be able to assist.as well .Keep up all the great communications with each other and try to have alittle fun ..

Hi Linda,
Thank you , yes you have most of it right. I will be finished with Sue's on Saturday, Sue's had some very loose stitching on the border that Liz added and I had to un-stich many seams and re-stitch and than when I went to sew on her border I had done, I had sewing machine problems. I had it all done, and went to pack it to mail and saw where my tension was too tight on about 6 inches, so on Saturday I will fix it. And, than start on Melissa's that day at my all day quilt class at Quilt in a Day.
I am planning on mailing you Pat's before I sew on it-so you can do the third border and when you are done send it back to me and I will sew on the last border. I will have several whole weeks at a time to start what I am going to add.
When I am done with Melissa's I will either mail to you or Pat, but it should be you because it is missing a border.
For mine-( I think it might have been mailed to Barbara?), I don't care if I get a last border-I feel like I have helped put the group behind, and my sister has kindly offered to sew on the last border, so no worries!
At least, we have extra time and this is good.
Take Care,
Candace (Candy)
Pat, (I PM'd you)
You were correct, but there's a slight problem, because Liz only sewed on one border-Sue's. So, everyone's is behind.
Hi Barbara,
Melissa and Pat's are behind by one border and then my border that should be added. I will be mailing one to Linda-Pat's. And, I will keep Melissa's to begin on her's after sending Sue's out to Pat.
It is only that I am a little behind on Sue's. I had a sewing tension problem. It will be done and in the mail on Saturday to Pat.
Candace,
I sent you a PM.
Barbara and group 4: zsofia, Suzie,Susie and stefiKay: I goofed and was halfway in to Susie's 2 nd border before I got it was supposed to be on #3.....so I finished 2 and am sending it on to Suzie to put on 3 and send to StefiKay for 4. I think that is right. Then will b putting #2 on Zsofia's, which I was SUPPOSED to do and send it to StefiKay. Suzie, on my way to PO with Susie's center. Christine
