I'm new to this group, so I will be playing catchup. I chose a collection of fabric I purchased about 20 years ago and saved for that perfect pattern. THIS IS IT!! The darker fabric is purple, doesn't show well, but looks beautiful in person.

I haven't chosen fabric for the 2nd block yet, Grandkiddies are arriving in 1 hour for a sleepover, so I will get to it tomorrow, after I rest from the whirlwind!

Hope you enjoy my block

This BOM is perfect for using your stash. I made one small quilt already with months Jan-May and am starting on another! Welcome!

Barb in Lousianna, Thanks for pointing out the 'bonus' block, I missed this!

Gorgeous fabrics, pndnana..pretty block too. You could just use the same fabrics for block 2, just rearrange prints. That's what a lot of the ladies are doing, including me...;o)

So, I finished the extra bloc so quickly today, I decided to go back and do the other block for the month as well. I also decided I would do Bonnie Hunter's Leader Ender project this year since it was a rather simple one as compared to other years. It's amazing how much you can get done 'in-between' blocks you're already working on. Here are my blocks: [ATTACH=CONFIG]577088[/ATTACH] [ATTACH=CONFIG]577089[/ATTACH]

Everyone is doing a great job working on their blocks. I just love all of them.

Here's the other one. (I wasn't sure the system would post both).
