I finished 13 total quilts for March of my UFOs, so I only have to complete 87 more this year and I will do the 120 I set my goal for by end of year. If get real lucky, God willing and river don't rise, will complete all 130 that daugther logged on paper.

I am so bad this month! I have yet to start on my block for this month- but I still have 2 days 
I got borders on the giant Bargello today! Yipee!!! The first 40 something rows went together great - but it took men3 tries and a week to get the last 8 on. I expected it to be ready for binding by now. Guess it just wasn't my week to quilt. So bright and early I will get my block done and on it's way - before I layer and try to figure out how to wrestle the beast

Robert.
I just finished the most awesome looking funky chicken block for you. Sorry! to say I can not take a picture. My camera is dead and I can not find the power source. I packed and unpacked my sewing stuff last year so many times that I do not know where it is.
The chicken is in fall colors and I had so much fun doing it. I kept asking Wayne if he thought it looked like a French chicken and he laughed at me. Said he thought all chickens looked alike. I'd shake my head and say men, but I might get in trouble. lol I am going back to the quilt shop to get more back ground fabric to make another one, so I can send you two. Did I say? I had alot of fun making this block. I might have to make a quilt of funky chickens and give it to my daugther for Christmas, or her birthday.

I got two puffy envelopes in the mail today.
One from my March partner a green floral necktie on a white back ground. Thank You Mary! Please give me your theme so I can return the favor. Wish I could take a picture to share it with everyone.
The other envelope was from Robert with two amazing blocks. They are beautiful.
A very big THANK YOU to the both of you.
