I decided not to join in this year's BOM because I'm doing the 50 Fab Stars and also trying to finish both of last year's two BOMs (although I reserve the right to change my mind). But I have been following the thread and watching all the pictures of the snowflakes. What a beautiful pattern and what a gorgeous bunch of blocks. You have all done great work. I too can't wait until February to see what it brings and what you all come up with. It's almost as much fun just to watch. :) :thumbup: :thumbup:

Sulabug has mentioned being a night owl. Does that mean we get the Feb. block at 12:01 a.m. Yes, I am excited!

I hope everyone is finding the new February 2012 BOM pattern & picture threads okay. Those that have posted already, seem to really be enjoying the new pattern with Cat's!!
:D :D :D :D |
Personally I might skip this month..with Batiks a kitty just doesn't fit. Having used this many times during Kim Noblins Pretty Kitty Swaps it's a great pattern.
SulaBug, can we substitute our own pattern if we choose the skip this one? Hugs, Cajun |
Hi Cajun,
I'm not SulaBug, but I don't see why you couldn't substitute your own pattern. This is not a swap and for our own use, I really don't see a problem. We can skip a month, so why not substitute pattern? I may be way off base, but that is how I see it. Anyone else see it that way? Jeanine |
Thanks! You are right it is our own! Duh!
Hugs, Cajun |
I don't think it matters as long as we wind up with 12 blocks. I am going to substitute a block. I'm not a cat lover.
|
Thank you ladies for your input regarding the February Cat block, for the BOM. We want everyone to be so happy with their blocks & their finished quilt at the end of the year, so go ahead & substitute any block you need to do. We all want this project to be a fun for all & having fun making & sharing these lovely blocks together!!
:D :D :D :D |

After attempting this block a couple of times, I finally got it. This was my very first attempt at paper piecing, so forgive my less-than-perfect result. [ATTACH=CONFIG]308493[/ATTACH]It doesn't want to lie completely flat, and I'm not sure why. :thumbdown: Could it be the scraps I used were different content (cotton, polyester, etc)? These were just scraps, so I don't know what the content was....

I think your block looks great. No one but you would know it was your first attempt at paperpiecing. I think you did a super job. Hit it with some spray starch and it'll probably behave.

Thank you, Judy! :)

Finished my January block on Sunday. I did notice the little penguin feet in the last block before I sewed it, but decided to keep them in the block. Hope you enjoy my polar bears.

Bibliostone, Love your block!

Just finished scrolling through all the snowflake pictures everyone has posted they are all beautiful. I finished Feb-block and was having a hard time on deciding fabrics for the Jan-block. Jan is my birthday month so Im thinking of trying to find some garnet colors. So this block is on hold until I find the just right fabrics. :)
