Carrie--top notch blocks, especially like the Gretchen
QNS--FC the eagles --fantastic; and a great Gretchen. My FIL made a couple of door knockers with them.
Jeanie--the simple setting in the nuggest focuses on the heart of the block. Wonderful red contrast in Gretchen.
mirabelle--such a lovely fabric combo in the gol--I mean Red nugget. One thinkg about little pics exploding into larger ones one can really see your great piecing!!
DD--oh those straight barbs shine through again. Have you decided on a border yet?
GrannyQ--another buttery blue. Gretchen has such a sharp contrast, too.
Termi--I think your blocks are my favorite this week. I love the transition from wood (fence) to apples to trees (orchard) with the horses set in the sides. And a cute floral that is so well matched with the gold in Gretchen.

Such a sugar rush, gals!--Guess I need some broccoli to calm it down!!!


Thank you oksewglad! I had fun doing those blocks.. And thanks to everyone for your kind comments.

Sorry I've been AWOL; my mother was ready to come home from rehab then fell and her health has spiraled downward this week. I love all the blocks everyone has posted. I'm posting mine but they haven't been pressed, trimmed or blocked.

Jan--very nice blocks...really like the purple in Gretchen. Sorry to hear about your mom.

Hi Jan, Sorry about your mom...it's not easy...Your blocks are perfect!!! I zoomed in on them and they are amazingly perfect....You all know I love to see perfect points!!! Have you been looking in my stash??? I've been contemplating doing some purples and I just went thru the blacks and yellows....we certainly have been on the same wave length....My son is back home now and is recooperating very nicely...it's been very trying to say the least... I'm tired of the upstairs downstairs situation with my sewing stuff!!! my brain says get some sewing done..then I end up moving something else around and no sewing gets done....soon, I hope.....H.

Jan, your blocks are beautiful. I too like the purples in Gretchen. I'm glad you could get some sewing done. Little pleasures help ease the mind during a stressful time, take care.
