I'm working on mine
Got the last of the small heels and toes sewn onto the bodies last night and will start stitching down the bodies to the backgrounds tonight. Then onto to sewing the big ones and I'm done. I'm getting there.
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.
