Wow Carol, you are faster than white light! Those plaids look great!:thumbup:

Good Morning everyone - I've got Eggs Benedict ready for the train riders.

Here are my four-patch blocks.

Trying to decide what to do next, switch back to assembling my kaleidoscopic quilt (free pattern on Equiter) or put the binding on the king size quilt that has been off the frame for over a week.

I'd really love to be out finishing up the quilt on the LA, but I ran out of thread and it's a specialty variegated, so it had to be ordered.

Wow Cathy - those look wonderful. So much color and interesting neutrals. I love it!!! and your kaleidoscope blocks are also beautiful. You have some fun projects going on there.

I just put some "Skorpor" ( a Swedish toast) next to the coffee pot ~ hope everyone enjoys it.

It will be hard to wait for next week's clue, so I may actually go back to my Bonnie Hunter MQ. I am pretty much snowed in here anyway.

I've selected my fabrics, which was easy since I have a boatload of 2-1/2" squares. I should be able to start sewing them together tomorrow evening.

I left a huge platter of homemade buttermilk biscuits for everyone to enjoy. :) (Man oh man does that sound good right about now!)

Love seeing the progress pictures. Glad I went to church last night as it's a cold one again in the Upper Midwest. I'm going dig through my "precuts" and see what I can find...know I have some neutral squares all ready and waiting. Thanks for the morning snacks everyone.

Well, I just had to jump in & join this one as my 2 1/2" bin is overflowing! I've been putting some together as leader/enders also, so I've got a head start already. Definitely got the 12 4-patch units already done. I'll work on the others during the Super Bowl.
