Sorry to hear about your photo/computer problems Jup.

Nancy I agree with Jup - this quilt is basic foundation blocks and then a lot of cutting and glueing.

I have been removing my templates before sewing the pieces on as I didn't want to bother with the soak and remove part. That cuts out a lot of mucking around for me.

I wish I knew about the swap when it started...too late to catch up now..but bought the book, it is a project on the list and this groups blocks are so inspiring!

Begin from where we are this week, or start on page one. Post your blocks as you make them. We'd love to see your work and cheer you on.

hugs, Jupiter

Jim came over and was able to get the photo chip out of the wrong port by using a 'spork' from Taco Bell! Modern technology at its finest...

So, here are my 5 blocks.

Currently posting Jup, Obsessed, Irene V and myself, but I think keelybird, mtngrl and quilts4fun may still be working on them although they haven't posted since May.

Hope I haven't missed anyone.
