    I don't know what happened but I had to log in just now. Anyway thanks all. I was wondering if we were going to get more pics but I see Colleen has made it. Colleen, your blue really pops but your starry fabric kind of gets lost. Really it is still pretty though. Well go wonderful with the rest of your blocks.

    Wow Monalisa, your RI is out of sight. I think that the summer got some people behind. Hoping they will rejoin us when the weather turns bad again.

    PokerDiva, that one might be my favorite so far with your focus fabric. CK, that turquoise sure makes your star pop. MonaLise, Very striking RI. Here's another Pennsylvania.

    I'm a MIA, I went on vacation for two weeks in August, came home and ripped out carpeting in the first bedroom, so the house was worse than if a tornado hit, so no sewing. Finally got the new floors in, and my sewing/computer/play room is done, but I have so many BOM's that I'm working on, so I have 4 more BOM's and 2 table runners to do and finish up, then I'll be back. I have through Ohio done, so I do have a few weeks to catch up with you guys. I've been keeping an eye on you and love everyones stars.

    Thank you Sue, but PN almost doesn't look like a star to me. I do love yours though. Sometimes I wish I could just come and raid everyone elses stash. Some great fabrics everyone has. Hey Katie, there you are. Nice to hear from you again. Hope you enjoy that new room.

    Very pretty, Colleen. Your black backgrounds are going to make a striking quilt!

    Sue, good choice of song! And your PA is gorgeous. You and Florence have inspired me to try a non scrappy quilt one of these days!

    Note to self. DO NOT LOOK UP AT THE TV WHILE USING A ROTARY CUTTER! I got lucky. I was trying to finish up New Jersey, trimming the pieces to put them together. I looked up at the TV......... and I was really lucky. The fingernail on my middle finger is now really short and I shaved the skin off but no blood. Maybe I should pay more attention. I decided it was time to quit for the night while I still had 10 fingers!
