HuntAnnette ... and YES, please keep posting those FFC DJs as you get them made, and until you run out of the fabric!

I cannot imagine 4" blocks either dublb, I thought the 6" were so tiny. I think I'm doing my DJ in either 6" or 8". Since I only make my quilts in lap size, I figure I can probably make around three quilts out of my DJ blocks (if I ever get them finished). LOL

HuntAnnette ... That's great!
I'm "sew" happy that AlisonQuilts sent her remaining fabric back northwards to you!
Ontario --> North Carolina --> Ontario !!!
Glad you are back home, safe and sound.
Next time we MUST meet up ....... and that goes for BOTH of you!

Glad it got there, HuntAnnette. I look forward to seeing the millions of blocks you make from it!
Yes, we could meet up in Len's, and each promise to be holding a distinctive item: "I'll be the one with the William Morris Jelly Roll!"

That would definitely be the way to meet at an LQS!!!!
WE have GOT TO DO IT!!!!!!
Today ... did my own Mini FART .... delivered that pink Irish chain baby quilt (yes finally!) and then continued on and did six stores in a loop between here and Markdale!
I called it my Mission Impossible FART ... as I had specifics of what I wanted and was staying focused. Well, got some stuff, not quite what I wanted, but at least was in the range. However, still had some MI left!! I will now give up on the possibility of it ever being a probability!
It was a FUN day ... should have kept track of the Kms I put on!

Wow, you did put on the Kms.....as you said....in one day? can I ask what MI means...sorry
I was lucky to go to another quilt shop on Friday...it was close to Ball`s Falls....we first attended a Crafts and Fall Fair, then went to the shop in Jordan called STITCH...was an awesome shop...of course I bought more fabric.....could have spent a lot more....I held back...good thing my sis-in-law was with me...lol We had planned on going to the Falls for supper but had an accident on our way there....no one got hurt but we had to rent a vehicle to get back to Brampton....wasn`t in our van or I wouldn`t have made it home..lol anyways it is nice to be back home but had such a wonderful trip south....
Yes, someday we will have to do a special shop hop ...make it a day thing.....it would be so much fun...next time we will both plan ahead of time.

Great news HuntAnnette that you kept Hopping about with SIL when she got back. So sorry about the accident and thankfully yes, that no one was hurt. MI ... I did not spell out Mission Impossible the 2nd time1
So proud of you and your DJs .... I was searching for DJ fabric in my MI tour too! Found one, but not really "sold" on it!
When AlisonQuilts comes north again, you will have to come south and we could have a day of play for the three of us! Wouldn't that be just grand?
