And pleased you should be!!!!
They're lovely ... white/blue nice and crispy fresh, and browns, yes that's more like "my" earlier thoughts on CW! :)

I'm looking forward to seeing your blocks soon ... between combining, right?
Good Luck with the auction.

Hi Quilt E, Jeanie G, and OKSewGlad, I truly am the last one! These two are next for me. Great job on your blocks, and thanks for your continued support.

Nope, you're not the last one :) .... there's been some other newbies in the last few days!
So just continue on when time allows you.
Remember, there's no race ... the joy is in the journey!

Hear! Hear! Well said QE...you don't want to end up getting burnt out on the blocks! I recently took a hiatus from making blocks (I have 16 to go) because I was pressuring myself to hurry, hurry, hurry and get the last ones done. I found myself not enjoying them at all. Now I'm making a lap quilt I've wanted to do for a long time and relaxing!

Here are my blocks 11 and 12, Broken Dishes and Broken Sugar Bowl. I am working on several projects, including Carol Doak's 50 Fabulous PP Stars, the QB Calendar BOM and also FMQing a gift quilt, so it's slow going. Having a great time, though!

I love both your blocks. The broken dishes is very rich in color. I like the reds you chose in Broken Sugar Bowl. Nice going. Just keep being positive...you have a lot going, but very exciting things.

Nicely done NickyLSF ... I particularly like the Broken Sugar Bowl, because of the colours, and the fabric patterns. It really shows it off well.

Yea for you and all your projects on the go!
Remember, there's no rush in this journey ... it should be a work of love that you enjoy to the max, rather than letting it become something you detest!!!!

Hey nicky, the blocks are great! Colors and contrast on the Sugar bowl is my fav, and good piecing job on the first. My FWS are on hold for now as I joined the PC (too many persuasive folks here, as she gently rubs her twisted arm!!)
