Okay I'v wash twice so have to go to the Walmart (only place to shop is small town America" and get more sheets. I can't really tell much difference in the first sheets and the seconds sheets. I adding 2 sheets to each wash. I'm thinking with as much fabric as I'm washing at a time I'm not using enough sheets.

I have finished A-1 and A-2 in cv fabrics, they turned out really well but wouldn't want to have to do either of these too many times! It seems to me that we talked about making larger blocks? Please let me know if this is the case or are we making the regular blocks? I have been picking up FQ's as I go along. I think I almost have enough now. Looking forward to this!~! :D since we're not swapping any of the blocks people can scale up or down how ever they wish. if you want to scale up you might want to use the software it makes it so much easier to scale everything up. |
OK...now I've bought the rulers, so I'm one step closer. I'm headed to the LQS tomorrow and will look at some fabric then...but I think I'll actually buy at least the background and sashing at Whittles.

I bought the rulers from the Ebay person Klue told us about. Really nice person and very fast so they are on the way to me.
Decided to have black sashing to make the blocks pop so thats asian fabrics with white background for me. Elle |

that sounds so great i can't wait to see the quilt come together. |
Elle, that sounds very interesting! You'll be playing with it right? Those asians are sooo pretty..don't let the black overpower them....it may be just what they need though. I'll have to wait until you get some done, then you'll have to lay it out so we can see. :D

I haven't decided to join in on the fun yet, but I see that the Dear Jane Software is on sale at joann.com, don't know when it ends tho. That's the one to use right?

Klue and Patti thanks for the vote of confidence, I have tried out a couple of the blocks especially the 1st weeks worth of blocks just to get the feel for them and these are so addictive and cute blocks when finished. The amount of fabric is small as well I have been using scraps from another asian quilt I am making so its working out well. Elle |
i've seen jane's with a different color sashing that doesn't match the background fabric and it looks really nice - its like you said the blocks just pop.
