A Little OT - Have an Embroidery Machine?

Have an embroidery machine and want to use it?

I am in a denim square swap that needs participants to do each of the fifty states. I took NJ (duh!). We each have to make fifty 6.5"x6.5" denim squares with the same machine embroidered design on each. The design has to represent the state we chose to stitch out. Then all 50 squares are mailed to the host, a woman named Tabitha, who will swap them all out. You'll get

50 denim squares back, one from each state. Everyone on the group is using the squares to make a ragged edge denim quilt. Some already have plans to display the quilts in local libraries with info about the swap and participants.

Sound like you're interested? There are 13 states still open which I've listed below! Once all 50 states are filled a mailing deadline is set by Tabitha...usually a month from swap close date. The group is great and I am having fun stitching out my designs (I am in the state swap and another swap). You can see pictures from the swap at the group's yahoo group site. The "Staters" are hoping that the 13 will go quickly and the swap will officially close. Tabitha has been recruiting people on various internet forums, but I don't think she ever made it here so I piped up.

Hope to see you there!
