There is a humility block in here but I didn't see it in time to redo it.

Every year or two,I choose a skill and then work hard on it. This year,it's quilting with rulers on my domestic sewing machine. I have a few rulers to start,but picked up the ones for borders at road to cal quilt show. It looks a lot easier on you tube than it really is,but...so are a lot of other quilting skills. I am appreciating all of your blocks....mine are in progress. I'll ask our fearless leader to post some when she's not up to her armpits in alligators...cheers!

I have finished Jaba's block today, it is a variation of a Lucy Boston block. Getting enough repeats on an F8 can be challenging, but this one just barely had enough so I had to go for it. Hope you like it. [ATTACH=CONFIG]566938[/ATTACH]

It took some time to see them all and several attempts w/ different layouts, and there is almost nothing left to the f8 bigger then a quarter! lol Then figuring out a layout that would take advantage of just 4 repeats. I have to say I did a happy dance when I figured out her green fabric was big enough for a solid square.

I am admiring all the blocks I've seen so far. I have not fallen off the face of the earth. I'm waiting patiently for my F8 package to arrive. Janice & I are communicating so she's aware. I'll dig in when my package arrives. In the meantime. . . .
