All the blocks look wonderful.

tslowery....GREAT JOB!!! WOOHOO!!!

I'm thinking there will be enough for bed quilts AND a lap quilt, along with pillow shams AND a couple throw pillows.

I have the batting, will wait until I see the all the colors to get the backing, but I did see some really pretty butterfly fabric at Ben Franklins. I'll take a trip down there this weekend and hunt it down again and get it. I think that will be the perfect backing for one, will see what I find for the other. Plus....I get a discount! WOOHOO! lol

Postage is being paid for, compliments of the Navy. When I told hubby about this accident and what we were doing, he said that the Ward Room (officers) on the ship will donate the money for the postage. How cool is that?

I'm thinking that if everyone can have the squares to me by the 15th, I could most likely have both quilts done and back in the mail by the first week of June. It will be a simple stitch in the ditch or a diagonal stitch for quilting or maybe tie it? What do you think? I have TONS of different color embroidery floss to tie it. I dunno.........what do you all think?
