.................and for those that are saying what the heck is she talking about re PUPs and PUPpies??? .... it was on another thread today. PUPs = Poor Unfinished Projects. I think it's my new favourite acronym!!! :)
"And they call it Puppy Looove....." |
I love the idea of a virtual R&R. I'm way too far behind on everything right now!

Well, Boy's Playmate was my very first paper pieced block and today I finally got back to Broken Heart to get it finished! Lots of pieces for sure!!
|
Very nicely done, Carrie! I have some of the light background as well, and the dark but in a brown rather than the rust. Yes we will get finished!!
|
Nicely done, CarrieM!
|
Oh, your Broken Heart is just lovely!
|
Beautiful Broken Heart carriem!
|
Carrie I really like your block and your stick-to-it-ivness. Just wait. Like the tortoise and the hare, you will probably finish first!

Great blocks as usual. I have decided to join in the fun. Better late than never, right QuiltE? So far, I have done Alabama and Boy's Playmate.
[ATTACH=CONFIG]470343[/ATTACH] I won't be doing all the blocks and will probably be skipping quite a few and coming back to them towards the end when I decide how many I need and what colour combinations are missing. Yes, those are spider web batiks. All the blocks will be made form Halloween batiks, with the sage as my constant. |
And another great spooky PC block! I love those Halloween batiks :)
|
Thanks. I love the blue. Found it on Etsy then discovered the matching sage on-line. Then found another one ...
|
Nice centering of the web! What inspired you to use these fabrics?
|
Hi oksewglad - Thanks, I enjoy fussy cutting. I am a Halloween freak and recently found some Halloween batiks. With these fabrics I can combine my love of all things Halloween without making too many people cringe with in-your-face spooky fabrics. :)
|
Spooktacular!!!!!!!!!!
Those two really fit well together and love how the batiks are giving them a glow. **cheers** W4Me is on THE Trail! :D:D:D |
QuiltE, do you think she will join us on the DJ trail as well?

Thanks QuiltE.
I can say with the utmost confidence that a DJ is never in my future. Either a FWS or PC was always niggling in the background because I bought the books. Time, some interesting batiks, and QuiltE's encouragement made my decision to go for it. Notice that I chose PC with its larger blocks. |
Well, after you've finished the FW you're used to smaller blocks :D :D
|
:D:D:DNever Say Never!!!!!!:D:D:D
***m*o*r*e****g*i*g*g*l*e*s*** |
Oh W4M I like it. I usually don't like anything that has ta do w/Halloween. These batiks are so refreshin'. I just love your Boy's Playmate.
|
DublB ... just goes to show the importance to keeping an open mind. Sometimes it's not that we don't like something, but that we haven't found it in a way that speaks to us! Besides, who can't like batiks?
With this, W4Me is creating a sure fire winner! |
Thanks dublb - The Halloween batiks are sure a lot different from my other Halloween fabrics. Which means they certainly play together differently.
QuiltE - Aw shucks. Thanks. I've never really looked at the world the same as others. No kidding. :) At the moment, I am looking at doing the twin sized quilt. If I'm having too much fun, and can find more batiks (hear that manufacturers?) it may grow to a queen size. |
Oh yeah! I do like batiks! :)
