    Lovely addition to Sewhappy's. I didn't mean to overlook you, Gina! I miscounted and thought only one was missing! The white framing the green really makes it look good!

    Well, it's not framing it! It's separating the green from the center, anyway, I like it.

    I love it!!!! Believe it or not Tam...moo that's kinda what I had in mind, I like how it has framed the center so that the center pops out. That's the same way I did Paula's. I didn't want the first border to take away from her center because it was so beautiful.

    Now we need Paula's!!!

    Paula, Fabric went out to you Friday morning. You'll probably have it by Monday or Tuesday.

    Gena, I love what was done with your center. The color is spot on. And, I love how it frames your Carpenters Wheel. I haven't yet decided what to add to yours yet. Good thing I have time.

    Yaya, I would be in heaven if my daughter moved in with me when her new little one arrives. But, that is not going to happen. Her and her hubby just bought a new house and moved in yesterday. But, seriously, I am very happy for them. I just won't get to be a hands on grandma the way I would like to be. So, revel in the chaos for me.

    I meant to say earlier also, like Jillnjo, I love all the color choices you used in the piano keys. It add so much fun and dimension. Blue and yellow is such a soothing color to work with for me. (I love working with the color blue especially. The yellow will add a much needed new direction for me.)

    I just love the piano keys addition to my center. I have the beautiful batiks center...it is stuning...hope I can add something you will like.

    QUOTE=jillnjo;5546487]Dragonfly, I will gladly send you some of the blue~assuming that I have some!! I bought it at a quilt shop I am going to today and they may still have it~will check when I go if I used all of it.

    Karen, I'm glad you like my first round addition! I thought the white areas would be a great place for some neat quilting. If the completed quilt called for it, you might also applique something in that area, but I decided not to, even though I did think about it! Any of you feel free to add to my rounds when the quilt arrives home!

    We did have a refreshing short trip to KY. One of the nicest times we've had on the few trips we've taken. Yaya~you are quite the traveler~my hubby and I will have to learn how to do that! We seem to be home bodies, enjoying what our hobbies are here. I tell myself we ought to travel more and see the country. I love my country, isn't it beautiful everywhere? I am looking forward to working on Tam..moos top! The fabrics she chose means I will be shopping for my round and do I ever love to do that!!! Tam..moo is around, I see her posting in the swaps and I received a wonky log cabin block from her this past week! Thanks, Tammy, it is a favorite of mine!

    I was given a 20 dollar gift certificate from friends recently to a quilt shop and I'm heading there this morning~it's been burning a hole in my pocket, as my Dad used to say to me whenever I had a dime or two!

    Take care, all you "blue robins"~happy sewing. Nancy.[/QUOTE]

    Blue Robins Great thinking Nancy!
    Hey Gena - Can we get the name Blue Robins added to the heading of our thread? That is if everyone agrees and likes the name.

    I love the side by side pictures. Sometimes it's hard to remember what it looked like in the before. All of your centers are beautiful, Blue Robins.
