I was looking at all the URR threads and I have always wanted to do that quilt. I have pulled fabrics out and I will do the 15 inch blocks as I do the FW quilt along too.

MiHolmes have you started yours yet? I have the Bar Brackman book and all those blocks are in block base if you have that program. I have searched and found some of the blocks that are being used. You can also find some of these blocks if not all, on the web for free. Here is a list of the blocks that I will use all of or some, haven't decided yet.

Underground blocks
basket block
drunkards path
crossroads
flying geese
hour glass
log cabin
monkey wrench
north star
underground railroad block
Lincoln’s platform
shoo fly
carpenters wheel
bow tie
northern star
chained star
lost ship
Sail boat
Rocky road to kansas
wagon wheel.
Bear paw
cotton boll
cabin windows
slave chain
Christmas star
Triple link chain
Charm
aunt Dinah
Creole puzzle
Jacob’s ladder
Catch me if you can
Trip around the world
Beauregard surrounded
birds in the air

If you know of any other blocks please post them. I also have some Novelty fabric of small pics of Lincoln, that Rosemary Y. sent me some time ago and I will incorporate just one into a block.

Here are the pic of the fabrics I pulled. I had some Pat Sloane fabric that I has scoured the web for. I wanted it for a special project and have lost interest in it now lol. I also had some CW fabric and then I pulled some that could pass.

I will be working on those blocks and the FW, which I am 13 blocks ahead anyway.

I have a table behind me where I put the fabrics that I am using at the time. This set is for the FW. These are odds and ends and they stay there all the time. I am using these also to make the cats from Muriel's quilt.

The second pic is my Pat Sloan collection.
The third pic is what I pulled from my stash. It's the whole front row lol, Aren't stashes great? And that is what the table looks like right now.

Three quilts will be made, UUR, FW and the cat quilt.
