Bright Hopes is done. I have no intention of doing that circle block. It is so far above my ability and I know it will just frustrate me.

Really pretty block, fryguy. If you can do these set in seams, the circle block shouldn't intimidate you. I can't do set in seams so I "cheated" on my block. Birds Eye was a big gentle curve that only took 3 pins to "tame" and it went together smoothly. (Or maybe I was just having a good sewing vibe that day LOL). Love the soft colors you used in Bright hopes.

OOPS! Gues it'd be a good idea to tell Everyone where to find it!! Sorry!!

It's pretty easy-peasy as it's only every other week, for five times. Makes a 28" ..... or you can expand it to a crib quilt or full size! You choose!!!!

This took me to a cell phone add. Is that the mystery? He He.
I'd like to look at it, however I've got to get some UFO's done. I've already joined the Quilt Story BOM. Maybe I'd better stand pat.

Fryguy, Your block is so spring like! I love those fabrics, and your horse is darling. You did great with FCing. (I think that I've got some of that green in my stash!)

Darling colors for your block Fryguy, and pretty central fussy cut. Well done!

Art - My DDIL went to Brazil for 6 months a few years ago. (Before she met DS.) She loves everything about Brazil.

Good news! So glad you talked to her.
6 months? Do you know where she had lived while here?

Fryguymoore...love your block. Maybe there will be a time that you'll do that Bird's Eye with ease. In the meantime, there will be plenty more that you can enjoy doing.

No I don't know where she stayed. I think she mentioned being on "The River." I thought she meant the Amazon, but that's an assumption on my part. She keeps track of her Brazilian friends on Facebook. I'll ask her the next time I talk to her.
