Finally got mine put together and done, took out those points twice and they still aren't even but this is the way it's staying.[ATTACH=CONFIG]552199[/ATTACH]

Just Jan: Love your projects. That fruity border just pulls all those fruit blocks together so well!

Jaba: Just lovely!

I have been derailed since the beginning of this ride by a health issue. I'm thankful that I am finally in good hands that are addressing my situation and am on the mend. But haven't been to the machine in weeks :(. Hope to get back to it very soon.

PaintmeJudy: Thanks for your honest opinion on my fabric choices. Seeing the reveal, I realize that despite my enthusiasm for the print, it really wouldn't have done well in this pattern. Guess that's the challenge of a mystery, isn't it??? Will try again in a bit with something else. All the runners are just beautiful! Thanks for the inspiration and hard work it takes to do these. :)

Thanks everyone for your comments. Jaba You runner is lovely!

JeannieG as to precuts, I really can't design something around these. Many of us don't have precuts, if by precuts you mean charms and layer cakes, and my only precuts are a box of assorted 2-1/2" strips cut from scraps, and the same with the box of 4-1/2" squares, that I suppose become precuts as they sit in the box waiting to go into a quilt. :)

Angelia I found the picture of the lovely fabrics you sent to me, and wanted to post them. Thank you again.

Thanks to all who tried to help. I just wasn't reading the new picture download screen for Windows 10 that would send the pix where I wanted them to go. Duh. Senior moment.

Lawsonmugs your lovely package arrived with an adorable eyeglass case (already put in my purse, along side the fabulous change purse you made me last time that I use all the time), a cocoa packet in one of her Printables envelopes, and the card was Printable, too. And a lovely big piece of pretty floral fabric. Thanks so much, Mary, you make such beautiful things.

Is there a caboose on this train? For more than one reason I couldn't participate at the appropriate time. I tried to board but something was always popping up. Forgot to take a pic of my fabrics but I got one square done this morning. Still have to make prairie points. I just found that clue on post 369. [ATTACH=CONFIG]552443[/ATTACH]
Hope to have finished by the end of the week, it's my sister's birthday.

Thanks for for waiting on me!

GramE/Pat... it was well worth the wait. Its one of the prettiest yet! I love, love, love the roses fabric. Any info on the selvage? Your block reminded me of a colored version of Judy's black, gray and white block with roses! Glad you caught the caboose! Would love to buy some of that fabric if its still available, and I sure hope you will post a picture when you finish this runner.

GramE - that is just beautiful, can't wait to see the finished runner!

I can't even begin to tell you how long that fabric has been in my stash. We're having early supper but I'll check later to see if it has identifying marks on it.

thanks for the compliment. Choosing fabric is not my strong point. I usually have to ask for help but I stepped out on my own on this one!

GramE your block is beautiful. You did great on selection fabrics.
