Finally...finally...finally got the Georgia finished up.

I do payroll at work (one of many tasks) and we have had a system processing changeover ---arghhhhh---- messing with 200 people's payroll is NOT a fun switch! Talk about people getting testy...lucky for me, I was one of the few that actually knew what was going on so everyone else stayed in the dark and will never know about the trials and tribulations that it took to get them paid on the 15th...but my boss said I was "awesome", lol. Guess that was because his direct deposit went into his account. :thumbup:

So without further ado and sticking with the mainly 30's theme ....here's Georgia!

Good morning, ladies. One of the best things about this thread is the wonderful color combinations I see in the blocks. It is such fun to see everyone's beautiful results.

I'm enjoying all the colors and different fabrics. There are some really nice blocks being done and you should all be very proud of your blocks - this project is going to generate some really stunning quilts! Great work everyone!!

I have been searching the internet for 2 weeks for it. I finally found it and it arrived today. It is perfect. Once I get a certain fabric in my head nothing else will do.

So I can't stand not knowing....let's see a photo of the fabric!

I'm thinking about piecing the sashing using the fabrics that were used on the different blocks. Another option is finding a batik that picks up the colors of the blocks (this may be hard to do because of all the different colors used in the blocks). What do you all think? Any ideas/suggestions?
