Loving what you all have done with this week's blocks. You are all so creative. Little boats, Golden Gate Bridge and some really bright sails.
I , on the other hand am perfect example of what happens when you sew late at night and your brain is mush. I thought I had enough apple fabric, but when I was half way through realized I wasn't even close. So I put polka dots where apples should be. I am trying to choose fabric to keep the spirit of the story so I really wanted apples this time.

Good job, JanieW; I like the apples and the polka dot in that block. I love Wednesdays and the block show. The "wave" in my boat sails is in the novelty print I used in a previous quilt...from the 12 month quilt block book.

Honchey, so glad you found the sailboat fabric, your block is so cute, bright and colorful. Great job!

QNS, you are so creative! Those sails are really waving and the bridge looks fabulous! Great job on both!

mirabelle, gorgeous blocks! Nice job!

gardnergal970, great job on both, I really like the colors, especially the orange.

wendiq, how cute your sailboat is. Love the colors on both. Great job!

JanieW, don't know how I missed you. The colors in EF go so well together. The polka dots add to it. I think it's good you ran out of apple fabric. Great idea using the cloud fabric for your boat, very, very pretty!

Oh myyyyyyyyy ....... what you ladies have produced!

QNSue ... seems I missed your EvFav posting ... as always innovative you are, and the priceless Don't Fence Me In. I think that is all about you!

MiraB ... yours are always so precious and calming!

GGal ... incredible FC on those twinkling stars. Your sails too look like they are billowing in the wind!

WendiQ ... a perfect blend of blues for the sailboat, and complete with starry sails! Great contrasts and FC for EvFav!

JanieW ... your mushy brain thinks well and I think you have a better block by needing to add the polka dots as it gave more variety and let those apples show themselves more! ITA that your cloud fabric was a perfect choice ... you'll see a different cloud fabric in mine!

I couldn't wait to photo/post for later today ... just had to do it now!!! (one of the good/bad parts of a home office!)
Another one here, who didn't flip the sails! A slight design change ... I thought the boat needed to be "in" the water! And Patches will be delighted to see that it's not rain coming from those clouds!

Will have to post pics later; coffee shop wifi if "iffy" today. What a great quilt block show to see today!

Anne-great piecing as always and I love your bright colors and story.
QNS-you always "wow" me with your choices. Love the sails waving and the wild horses in EF.
Mirabelle-beautiful; calm but colorful. Love the green with the roses.
Ggal-great color choices. I especially like the fabric in en EF.
Wendiq-love those stars in the sky!
JanieW-great save using the polka dots--they really add a pop to your block.

I have to watch all the oohing and aahing I do here in the coffee shop---I get some really strange looks!

QuiltE, I took a second look at your EV and seen something familiar about it...love how you used the blue fabric! Love everyone's sail boat and Mirabelle's roses. She just keeps all of us enjoying those roses!! So well done. Its another wonderful Wednesday with all this "eye" candy.
