Boy that must have been some good dinner where is the pattern???? LOL stop eating. I am sitting with scissors in one hand and fabric in the other.. waiting on GO!

Stop eating! do you have the block yet? All day and nothing to do .. ok off to invent something oh I love doing that!

Elisa you are a brat!! If you are doing this one, it is sure to be a kick! I'm in. Like I REALLY need another project. But, I love it. Over in the "Scrappy Club" someone posted a Debbie Mumm free pater link. I am going to start that right after Christmas, too. I have soooo sewwwwww many scraps. Can't wait to get started.

Hi everyone, sorry I have been gone for a few days, I decided to take a vacation in the hospital for 3 days... I will be in tomorrow to post a block and answer any questions that came up while I was gone. Sorry for the blip in communications everyone, certainly not what I wanted to do the past 3 days.

This sounds like an interesting scrap project. Please count me in. I'm looking forward to working on the block and chatting with everyone. Thank- you.

Rosie I am sorry you took that vacation and hope all is well now. I think you went there for the food myself. I spent three plus months there last year and well the food gets sorta boring pretty quick. I will have to take a pass at going anytime soon again. I feel for you.

I think I could start sewing right now :) ok I could sew like all the time. I do sew all the time. I pick up the house the second i get up my DH is not the most put together sort. Then I slam on clothes and look around its all good off to the sewing table. These are on my non dialysis days but that leaves me four days a week to well.. sew. I am figuring one day I might even get better at it! My stash is almost all comprised of scraps from others quilts. this is fine with me its a stash and now I would like to start decimating it into pretty little quilts. tapping fingers on my leg waiting waiting waiting I do waiting well by the way so dont mind me.

Im in and I hope to keep up.

Sounds like a good way to learn some skills, I'm in.

Ok, here is the blocks for the first week of the Quilt Along, hope you enjoy them. I will be back later to answer any questions, still in medication fog this morning and we won't even talk about yesterday..LOL
