Clean up in 2015 for 2014?

With a new year, I am wondering about a few "clean up" items/questions.

1.  Were there squares for October, November or December of 2014? I know that at least a couple of us did not receive anything for those months.

2.  I got Emolyn's square in the mail for February, but nothing for January.

3.  Maria Mae is no longer participating. (Did I forget to tell you, Marnita? Sorry!)

By the way, I have all of the squares for my 2014 Rainbow project (laid out on my bed here).  I can now put it together, starting with piecing flying geese for the corners of the sashing... I'll post pictures when I'm done! Thank you all, for your lovely squares!


I also want to announce the newest additions to our family. (How do you get pictures next to each other? I thought I knew how... )

Andy Gareth Curtis.  Born to our youngest daughter, Grace, January 4, 2015.


Two brothers! Clark, 2 1/2 and Andy.

Plus! I no longer have to fight with my regular machine (or threaten to throw it out of the window) while quilting my projects! This Viking Platinum16 Mid-Arm machine has a 16" 'harp' opening! 
Woo Hoo! Come and play!


Happy 2015 Sewing!
Love, Mardie

Congrats Mardie on the new grandbaby! Both kids are adorable! We did not get any fabric squares from people during October, November, December, and January. I think October was going to be a catch up month since Maria Mae isn't sewing anymore. Also, Marnita got off track in November with her move to Utah and she still needs to send out a square tutorial. Sherri D needs to send out a square tutorial and Nikki needs to. March begins our new year again. I will be writing a post to start the new year off. I just need to get it done! I LOVE your new quilting machine! Can't wait to see all the things you create from it!
