Oh Quilt E I just love that gold leaf fabric, it is just wonderful! I am so anxious to see the green surrounding your blocks. How fun to see if finally going together.

Ooh, ooh very pretty QE!! Love both those colors. I really like Michael Miller Krystal fabrics, too-perfect blenders. Now, get off the board and back to sashing LOL!!!

Hey there JanRN! I will have you know that I WAS OFF the Board!!!! *giggles* .... and can say that I am now more than 1/2 way done the 2 sides of sashing for all the blocks. Have been placing them on my design wall as I get a bunch done. And OMG have I been getting excited as I see those sashes going on. You don't think they are going to change the blocks much, but man oh man, they sure do!!! :)

Pretty nice stuff, those Krystals, aren't they? :)
Much appreciated, all your oooooohs!!!!!!!

Thanks JeanieG ..... I bought that fabric quite awhile ago expecting to use it and did include it in a couple of the blocks. I fell in love with it and knew that even if I didn't use it in this quilt, I loved it enough to use for something else. The other colours of it are pretty nice too. It's a Timeless Treasure fabric. You can say FUN again! .... I thought I was going to find the sashing to be long and boring, but OMG not at all, as it's been so motivating to want to keep on ... and on!! :)

Did you hear the ahhh- and then a sigh from Iowa?

Hi Quilt E, I am looking forward to the sneak preview!

I need to continue with my FWS but am busy completing the layout for the 2011 BOM Houses quilt. I am having a great time with that, making many additional paper pieced blocks, 6" and 6" x 12", to make the quilt larger. But it has been time consuming.

I have a UFO of many scrappy houses that has been waiting, and waiting. I got stumped on what to do with them and so it has sat. I have vowed it WILL get made this year, probably into two lap quilts.
