Thanks Mar! I spent last night prepping more heels and toes and got 4 more socks finished! And I have all 40 socks cut out and will work on prepping them after work today. I am on a roll! I just hope everyone will be happy with my socks. I know I am new to hand applique and mine aren't perfect but I hope they are acceptable.
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.
