Wow-great blocks, ladies! My camera keeps disappearing. Once I track it down (prob in DH's car) I'll get posting.
Anne hope you're feeling better.

QuiltingNinaSue, You picked the perfect fabric for your blocks. Love them.

Honchey 11-03-2010 05:14 PM

How do you find such cute fabrics??

QuiltingNinaSue 11-03-2010 07:31 PM

Last week ( a week ago ) I had a dear lady friend take her granddaughter from Mo to FFA conference in Indianapolis, In. who offered me a chance of a lifetime...all expenses paid. She loves quilting too, and we hit all but one quilt shop in the area. In each shop, I ask, "Do you have any material that would go into Fwsq, to represent farming of today"... and they all showed me their selection of material. We unpacked our suitcases of clothes (threw them into bags) and packed them full of material from the quilt shops. Yes, we DID enjoy ourselves. No dh along was along on this trip. MMM...more is good. Quilts Plus lived up to its name, we journeyed there three times in one week. Quilt Quarters twice, and Always in stitches once.

Altered for tired eyes today. Still planing on some Jane action but couldn't stay away.

We were talking about showing all blocks when we hit 25 or so. Anyone interested in doing that soon?

leakus 11-04-2010 05:03 PM

beautiful blocks. I am so behind that it is not even funny but I'll try to catch up on January or as soon as I am done with Boomerang 3. I don't want to fail my partner quilters.
The Farmer's Wife is a quilt I am making for my sister in Chile so I know it will not be an UFO.

Pookie, do you sew around all the outside edges?

I'm ready if anyone else is. can we have it's own thread? do we have to get permission from a moderator to do this?

I do when my eyes are really bothering me. Sometimes I use a dark thread. It depends. Half blind makes me inventive.

Would love to see everyone post what they have up to now.

janRN 11-05-2010 02:49 AM

I like the idea of posting what we've done up til now. I'd like input from others about what colors I'm "missing" or colors I've used too much of. I get so many ideas from seeing what others have done.

Hi, Currently they are the first thread on the 2nd page of The Blocks of the Month and Week. When I first tried to locate it for you I didn't see it either. Second scrolling worked. Anne
