Heads up... I just looked at the book on Amazon and it said only 2 in stock! I ordered one of them.

Wow, we can sure be a force to be reconned with, huh?

What is everyone doing for fabric/colors. Are you doing all one color scheme to do a large quilt or a few of one color to do smaller projects, or just using scraps for practice blocks???

I'm doing autumn colored batiks - I have the color choices all planned out for all the blocks - and am planning to incorporate the blocks into a wall hanging with sashing between the blocks. I am planning to do a coordinating quilt in a different pattern (no applique!) for my bed with some of the same batiks.

That sounds nice, I have never used batiks, but I love the look of them. I have no plans yet, better get moving.

I thought about batiks, but oohh there is so much to choose from, so I ended up with black with bright yellow, green, and teal accents for my blocks, will see how it turns out.

I;m doing batiks in pink, purple, black and green. I'll post pictures when I get my fabric organized.

Jenny Byer borders certainly would be a nice fabric to use. Welcome to join in if you'd like to.
