I need to get my fabric washed and cut, maybe tomorrow after the physical therapy on my hand. It's getting better after the surgery but still has a way to go. Libster you're way ahead of me, I better get with it huh?

Hi there Molly! I hope you will join again.
Reminder to everyone, groups are a bit fluid. If there aren't enough people in a group, or even too many, participants may be asked, not told, to switch up groups to even things out. At that time, if it doesn't suit you, you may drop with no negative consequences. And no group will ever be larger than 20 because it just becomes too much for some, myself included. Using the three month group for an example, if there were to be 16 members, that works out to be under one and a half blocks a week. Should it go to 20, probably unlikely as recent history suggests, you'd have to make about 2 blocks a week to complete them in the necessary time frame. And the dates, once firmed up when sign-ups close, are non-negotiable, so it's never a good idea to put off block-making until "later".
If anyone has any questions, please feel free to post them here or email me. Chances are, if you have a question, someone else has the same one. Either veteran boomers or I will answer if you post here. This group tends to have a really helpful bunch of people!

Terriamn, I hope you heal up quickly, although your makeshift workstation doesn't sound too bad. Take it easy and rest up as much as possible.
Just back from foot doc, at least 3 more lovely weeks in this boot and he gave me even more restrictions. I talked to him about sewing and explained the process. He said if I can comfortably navigate stairs to basement sewing room I can sew for a few hours at a time, take a break and go back to it. Just no standing to iron or cut fabric. I think that is totally doable. Will ask Dh to arrange a makeshift cutting area by sewing machine and set up my TV tray ironing station.

Jaba, Terriam, Can't wait to convalesce with you and work through our medical issues together. Maybe we should name the group "therapy"!
I have had my fabric picked out and am putting the binding on my boom 15. I really like to complete one boom quilt before I start on the next.
