This is my Christmas Siggy Quilt.... I had sewn the top together but, I do have one more border to add on.... For those who do not know what a Siggy Quilt is, let me tell you.... I joined a quilt group called "Dear Jane Alternative" and there are men and woman all over the world that joined as well... This quilt was a Christmas Swap and the rules in it was... center square to be 3 1/2" and light material... The outer square had to be in quality Christmas fabric.... in the center square we had to put our name, year, country, town and state you lived in and "Merry Christmas" in our native language. There were 165 of us who signed up for the swap and each of us had to make at least 165 squares of our own.... We had a deadline to get our squares done and mail to one person (known as Siggy Mom), and she would separate them in to 165 piles then ship them out to all who signed up for the swap... We did send postage along with our 165 Siggy's...It was like Christmas when the package arrived... So, many different blocks from all over the world...I had so much fun doing this so, I signed up for the Birthday '08 and '09 swap and the international swap... I am busy as the swap goes.... :)
