I have finally started my....
sock blocks.....got a few things/committments out of the way and have a sock all pinned and have started stitching it down. Hoping to get a few done while on vacation. Hopefully more than a few!
I hear ya Mar! I had a couple things I had to get out of the way and now I will have the time to get these done. Will post a pic when I get the first one done!
100% Cotton Prewashed fabric brushed cotton acceptable, please no heavy flannel. Backgrounds are to be cream/beige of a primitive look... No white on white or white on cream, avoid "painted" fabrics... Socks to be homespun, country, primitive types (plaids, stripes, checks and graphics) NO NOVELTIES - NO BRIGHTS. Blocks maybe hand or machine appliques. If using fusables, please window pane the fusable. All methods should remove sock fabric behind toes and cuffs. Do not trim blocks One "set" of blocks = 2 small blocks and 1 large sock block. All blocks should be in the same direction as the book. Please use your book for reference. Do not sign your blocks! Debbie S. has offered to help me make a label that will include all swappers signatures. Please include a note with your signature and city/state or what ever you would like on the label. DUE DATE: August 25th with a pre paid postage envelope.
