That is beautiful. What are you using to hold your flannel up? I see clothes pins. I need some ideas. I have been throwing my flannel over a door and that just isn't big enough sometimes

Thank you Patrice. We put four evenly spaced screws into the top front of our book case, on which I hung plastic coat hangers with clips; those hold up a white flannel sheet. If I ever want to get it out of the way, which is not often, I can hang the whole thing accordion style in my closet, even with blocks on it.

Nicky your collection is amazing, colorful and totally eye-catching! A wonderful group of blocks!
Patrice, I like your block - pretty floral there. Have a great time in Jamaica - you are a lucky duck and I hope you have a safe and wonderful trip!

Nicky, Awesome bunch of stars! I love the floral in Louisiana and now I remember some of your others. I also especially like the last one in the same row.

wvhill, that floral with the berries is sure purty. Jamaica! My husband wants to go there so bad. He went with a bunch of guys during his college years (in the 60's) and wants to go back. I tell him that it just isn't going to be the same and maybe he should just keep his memories intact. Between Jamaican rum and Red Stripe, maybe his memories aren't all that clear. Don't tell him I said that. Have a fun trip.

Wow Jamaica have fun. I am jealous. I have had 2 baby quilts to make in the last few weeks and am behind on my blocks. One baby quilt is finished and on its way the other just need borders and I hope to get it marked and layered tonight. I have a half day off on Thursday and I am hoping to be able to work on catching up then. I think I have 4 stars to make now. School will be out soon then I hope to have more time. It just seems like there is always so much to do.
Everyones stars are so unique and pretty. I can't wait to finish.
Pat

Jamaica, I wouldn't want to take my computer with me. Just enjoy your trip. And forget about everything at home.

Very pretty, Florence! The center circle is perfect for the day of the Annular Eclipse. I am still two behind, hoping to finish Maine today.
