Both blocks are beautiful and Katie, you are on the right week.

once again all beautiful. I will be back when you get to ohio. :)

Great job everyone!! I am back from Paris and started working on New Jersey last night. Up until yesterday I was too jet lagged to do much of anything. I am not sick of stars; like WhitePine I love paper piecing. However, I did decide that for the way I am joining my blocks I will only need 36. I may nevertheless finish the project with the group and use the extras for pillow shams or something.

Nicky, I hope you had a wonderful time in Paris. Don't really know how you couldn't have. Welcome back.

We took our first ever trip to MI and temps. hit 105, 103 while there. Asked a friend if that was usual in the summer since I've never been there. He said not when he was growing up.

Everyone's blocks are beautiful. I love the colors...

Here is my New Jersey.

Thank you Florence. I went with a girlfriend and we had a fabulous time, walking our fannies off sightseeing, and eating all my favorite foods!

Nicky, your block is wonderful. I can't wait to see your finished quilt.

WhitePine, ditto what Florence said!!
