Today's update. Crocee's blocks arrived today. Crocee sent some blocks fairly early on but they never made it so a couple days ago Crocee sent another package. Both packages showed up today for a total of 4 blocks.
Thank you Crocee!
There are still some blocks on their way too like the one from Miriam's mother. Thank you! and a few others.
Sometimes I'm a little slow. I finally realized that I have far more than 42 people participating in this quilt. Right now I have 42 blocks on a side. If I get more than that I'll add a row. The quilt is going to be two sided, with neither a front or a back. If you don't see your block (or blocks) on one side, it(they) will certainly be on the other. As I said before, there's no particular order other than no two blocks from the same person will be next to each other.
Here's a couple pictures. I haven't started sewing rows to each other and won't until I'm sure all blocks are in.
The color might be just a bit on the yellow side in this picture. This is the fabric we chose for the sashing and borders.
Ella at work. This is natural daylight and pretty close to the true colors.
A partial shot of a couple of the finished rows.
Thank you everyone!
