I have been busy, Bram and Isa need new outfits with sleeves and little pants. Meaning they might be out of the incubator very soon now. This is the first set I made.

Thank you JanieW!!!! ... what a perfectly beautiful block ... and yes, it totally fits the idea of what I was looking for when I put forth my MB request list! Right down to remembering to sign your work! You were probably wondering why I had not posted about it ... my road is closed, so haven't been going to the post office on a regular basis, as with the closure, it's a long way around on muddy roads (even though we have lots of snow still!). I never dreamed I'd have a MB so fast, and thinking it'd only be bills, I'd been putting the trek off til I was somewhat near the post office. Yesterday on the way home was the day ... now I feel so bad that I missed out on it!

And what might be the name of this block?? ... I see it as a Broken Churn Dash, but I'm sure it has a proper name!!!

Thanks SO MUCH JanieW!!!! ... seems like a breath of Spring air. Perhaps a chinook coming down from the west?

I was walking on air when I left the shop..My sister and I had so much fun picking out the different strips.

QuiltE your MB is so pretty....soft colors...just what you asked for...I love the mr & mrs farmer...block...Where did you get the pattern from??? I"ll bet you had a grand old time shopping!! I know I did!!!

I can't wait to get my MB...I hope it gets here before Saturday...I"ll be on my way to NC April 1st...

Everybody keep busy chatting, reading, sewing, etc...Life is Good...enjoy it!!!
Now aren't ya a bit spoiled?? How wonderful for ya!!
