No computer time for me tomorrow a.m.; we're off to Atlanta to see about DH's clogged arteries and aortic valve problems. (I think by-pass & valve repair surgery will be soon.) So am probably first this week to send pictures of blocks 57 & 58. There should be lots of good pictures added by the time we get back home.

Beautiful blocks--again!! I can't wait for Wednesdays so I can see all the new blocks posted. Isn't it exciting? Weezie those butterflies are too cute. And GrannyQ, my next quilt is going to be in purples-you've taught me how to use different shades/hues and make stunning blocks. QNS I always wait for your "story" along with your blocks.
Can you tell I'm having too much fun with this project????

Beautiful work, as usual weezie! So sorry about your DH! Hope all goes well,

Thanks very much, Hattie! Next Monday at 10 a.m. is pre-surgery (lab, etc.) for about 3 hours and then he is to be back at Admissions at 5:30 a.m. Tuesday for the surgery. Traffic to & from Atlanta is always a booger and sometimes stops moving completely, so we've reserved a motel room for Sunday, Monday, Tuesday nights (right at hosp. area with hosp. care discount & shuttle service). We were both enormously impressed with the heart surgeon, who predicts an 85% chance of survival for DH and I won't comtemplate anything other than success.

I know this subject is not about Blocks 57/58 photo's, but I don't think any of you will mind my sticking this here .... I've only ever seen extreme kindness from everyone in this BOM group.

weezie 02-16-2011 10:57 AM

Thanks, Jeanie, for both the quilt blocks compliment & the surgery "luck". I appreciate it!

Jeanie G and Aunt Jo - beautiful choice of fabrics. Very nice job.

rwquilts 02-16-2011 05:13 PM

Terrific blocks everyone! My scanner won't scan, so I have to wait and have my DH fix it! I will post mine soon...(I hope)

Weezie, wishing your DH the very best! Take care!

violetsfarm 02-17-2011 06:50 AM

Jan RN - Nice blocks, you did a perfect job. Isn't it a thrill to see how just a few fabric choices can completely change the look of the blocks.

nana4baj 02-18-2011 08:07 PM

I pray your dear husband will be ok...........It is worst on us though.....A year ago November 27 th my husband had triple by pass. Please be advised it is not a pretty site when they come out of surgery. I hope they told you that they are really swollen. They didn;t tell us and we almost fainted. Please keep up on here how your husband is doing. Our Prays Are With You

nana4baj, thank you so much. I will give you all an update when I get home again next week, Wednesday at the earliest, but may very well be later.

janRN 02-19-2011 08:53 AM

Weezie, don't worry about us. Take care of DH and yourself. We'll all be thinking about you both and praying for a full recovery. We'll be here when you get back.

Violet-thank you for the compliments. I just love looking at all the blocks.

We have a great bunch of blocks and quilters in this group. I'm so glad I happened on this site. Here are my 57 & 58 finally done! I didn't really enjoy doing 57--the last 4 corner sets were a pain to sew on--even w/PP they were wonky. 58 is named aptly--it was a dream to sew.

Weezie, hope all is well with you & Hubby.

Wowser! I am not sure where my thinker is?? I finished what I thought was my 4" #57 Morning Block in Scrappy fabrics.
And since posting it is not exactly up to specs. Can you see the problem?pretty noticable..

Well, will think on this one, Do I make a new one? I really kind of like this one other than the mistake of course.

4" Not so much a Block #57((giggle))Morning- Scrappy
