And again you all made lovely blocks! Honchey, you will get there :D Just take it easy! (It's hard to type with a cat sitting on my hands!!)

dublb: gorgeous plates! I would love to have some of them :D

Here's my Captain's Wheel. I still have to do the Clover Blossom but I don't have clover fabric so I have to think of something else. [ATTACH=CONFIG]323283[/ATTACH]

Aah-my favorite morning of the week and you ladies certainly didn't disappoint!
Anne-I have a block on my sewing table that looks just like your Clover Leaf LOL. I do like the peaceful feeling of your Captain's Wheel.
April-these blocks are hard (at least I think so) and I love the fabric use you used.
Janie-great blocks as usualy and I love your little cowboys.
QE-I rarely use yellow but I'm loving it in your blocks--very pretty, adds a "spark".
Anael-love your block with the great fussy cutting and such pretty green.
Bev- please don't show your plates--all I need is another "addiction" LOL. I love them and would like to try decoupage some day. They are beautiful.
Carrie-love your fabric. Those blocks are so pretty in those colors.
Betty-you are so kind with all your compliments; glad you're following along with our little journey.

Here are my blocks for this week:

Honchey..your CW does look dreamy...the horses so content. The half square triangle points look good. Press on and you will conquer.

LIz...like someone said , yours looks like the painted desert. Beautiful.

JanieW...cute cowboy in CW and your pinwheels are pristine.

Dubib...your plates are gorgeous. #3 particularly looks like a quilt block. Once a quilter, always a quilter, huh?

QuiltE...on the first day of the showing and you have both blocks beautifully done. It sure helps to have the FW out of the house doesn't it? Hope your taxes don't give you fits too long. Can you fill on line like we do here in the States? That sure has made it easier for me. I can do all of the formulas, etc, but it is so much easier to just give the sw the information and have it fill in the blanks where needed!

Anael...you CW is lovely. Great FCC.

Carrie...I like your fabric choices for CW although I suspect the colors are really more red if that really is your sashing that it's laying on. Will you be sashing as you go?

I'll be back with this weeks during the recess but will be posting the last couple of weeks later today.

JanieW-Thank you for the kind words on my horse. I completey forgot about the mirror image and now realize all of my blocks so far are wrong (good thing it is only three!) Not sure I am going to redo them all though. I may redo the Wheel as I am not happy with the way it looks. I am not sure if it is the corners that bug me, the spokes in the wrong direction or the lack of color separation. I love the painted desert this brings because that was the feel of the original fabric that I fell in love with and wanted to keep but....
I love your blocks! The clover is perfect and your little cowboys in the center of the wheel are perfect. I love the FC!


dublb-I love your plates! I decoupage but never thought to do it with the fabric on plates. Beautiful thank you for sharing!

QuiltE-I love love your Cowboy Santa and what a great job on the FC. Your two blocks look wonderful. Love them too! and I have to agree..I don't think it matters either and am keeping the ones already made the way they are. Unless I redo them...then I will fix the mirror issue lol

Anael-Your Wheel is beautiful! I love the horses and the FC spokes. Great job.

CarrieM-Love the fabrics you are using and your blocks look wonderful!

JanRN-thank you for the kind words. These blocks are tough but I hope by the end of them I will have grown some in my skills. I love your blocks and especially that beautiful birdie! Great job! And I see your spokes are right..Whaaaa!! I so messed this block up :(

garndergal970-Thank you for the kind words. I wanted the painted desert look but I am doubting the block as it appears to like in color with not enough pop....

I cannot wait to see more blocks and get my clover done. It has nothing at all to do with green or clovers lol Want to know what my lucky charm err clover will be???? Guess y'all have to wait and see.....

Hugs
April

Carrie, your blocks are lovely. The fabric is beautiful!

JanRN: what a gorgeous bird! Your CW is bright and beautiful, gives me an idea of what I can do!

April, just hang in there. Some blocks are easy and some aren't. Your fuzzy cutting is great and I love your fabric!

Good morning! So nice to see so beautiful blocks this morning.

Honchey - I love your block. You know, those tiny half square triangles are also making me mad. Love your green fabrics. When done it will be very beautiful

LovingIsabella - The horse running on the desert really looks like a paiting. I do love it.

JanieW - I love the central cowboys. Love both the way they are. I did the same error on my Captain's Wheel.

dublb - Gourgeos decoupage plates, all of them reminds me pieces of quilt blocks, I love the one with red triangles. Quilt E had a great idea, give us some lesson during the Easter break.

Quilt E - Beautiful blocks and beautiful clover leaves fabric. Santa looks great in the center of the wheel. Very well done.

Anael - Beautiful work, your block looks great.

Carriem - Love those blues. The clover leaf block looks as it will be just beautiful when done. Great work.

JanR - Love your bright version of clover leaf, beautiful turquoise. The central bird on the wheel is just something, so beautiful, looks so real. Love your block.

Here is my 1st block for this week: Captain's Wheel. Hope to find some time to have the 2nd block done soon.

I'm just going to say to one and all.....FANTASTIC FABRICS AND BLOCKS MADE! I am not taking the time to single out each one of you "stars of quilting". You know who you are and you deserve all the accolades given.....:)

I didn't have any clover print so I reverted to my "Cowboy/Cowgirl" theme......I am skipping the Captain's Wheel....it's beyond my patience level.....LOL! I may make a substitute, but I have a lot on my plate the next couple of weeks, so I may skip a few of these next ones and catch up later.....

JanRN..your bluebird makes my heart sing! I love it
Ivani..wonderful fussy cutting!
Wendig...your little people are the cutest!
