Oh my what lovely eye candy everyone is showing there are going to be some gorgeous quilts out there in SPIKE LAND.

kwiltkrazy your chicken quilt is eggsactly perfect!!! So glad to see you joining the group. You have such a wonderful eye for color and can teach us all a thing or two about FMQ.

After seeing QE's table runner on another thread (post #5664 in link below) I can see this as a series of Holiday runners to be used as gifts. Hmmmmmm......

What wonderful pallets you ladies have created, batik rainbow, and Victorian lace. Spectacular.

Thanks Gladdie, sure went toe to toe with those feathers, but a chicken quilt has to have feathers. Left the eggs off, didn't want any rotten eggs on my quilt.

Ooh Honchey I think I see some of my fabric in your second pic, have you been raiding my stash. :D:D :D

Love everyone's fabric choices

I too love everyone's choices! I can't show my fabrics as I pick them when I'm making the block. So that would mean a picture of the stash I'm going to use :D :D

DHM, thanks for pointing out the error. I printed all the patterns but didn't have a close look yet. I made the first block, the pattern is ok.

Welcome to all new Spikers :) This will be a great journey!

Lol mum... Just wanted to point out, the fabric from honcheys second photo are actually from MY stash... They're the fabrics I'm doing dear Jane with... Hahahahaha 😛 Beautiful fabrics honchey!!

Honchey... did you realize that your top fabric is from the Mirabelle group? That's the focus fabric on a UFO i need to get back to. It's quality, beautiful fabric reminding me of someone I have come to know and love!

welcome to everyone. Do you think we can make it to 50 Spikers? Round numbers are good.

HI Spikers....I went to the LQS yesterday to add to the fabric in the other photo...couldn't find anything that pulled me...then I spied the Lakehouse fabric and decided then & there to buy it...They have plenty on the bolts in case I need more...Great minds think alike!!!:D
