Hi All, Let's see some eye candy :-P

I wouldn't call mine eye candy. Block 46 looks like space invaders. Here they are.

I love them esp the "Space Invaders". Great colors!

Anne,
I just wanted to say "Thank You" for starting these threads for us. We sure appreciate you for doing them. (((HUGS)))
Here are my 45 and 46.

Hills and valleys I liked, but another fruit/grape/ basket of basket valley makes me weary of the that pattern. Thanks to all for the chance at sharing and thanks for looking.

here are mine :D I just recieved some more fabric from my sister, so my next few will be a bit brighter :D
also, ICK I need to clean my scanner :P The sun was out two days ago, not enough to melt any snow, but enough to catch up on some block pressing :D just not these ones LOL

well.... maybe they look distorted because the scanner bed was so cold it fogged up??? I dont know, they look funkin weird.

I have really been enjoying making the basket blocks, so liked #45, but not crazy about #46...but here are mine...

Hi, I really needed some eye candy!!! # 46 reminds me of butterflys in the open. I love the windmills in the farm block.It's almost like you sectioned it to be that way. I love Wednesday--it's when I get to see lots of blocks. They are all great and so different. I can't wait to show you my # 47 block. If you coax me I will!!!! I'm especially proud of it. There I go tootin my own horn!.. Anne

Okay...I'll bite...pleeeaaassssseee Anne won't you share your block #47 with us? And while you're at it, how's about #46?

please.......... "coax"...."coax"..."coax"........ Were you able to get #47 to go with no Y'seams? Curious mind wants to know.......coax...coax...coax...

I did 47 awhile ago and I'm still working on 45 & 46. I fussy cut 47- I think it looks very Victorian. My opinion. Anne , Here it is!!!

VERY very Pretty!! I love it!
Did you paper piece?

Yes, I find the paper supports the fabric and keeps the blocks from going wonky. I really just started with this quilt to do pping. I gave some hints and helps with how I did this block in the discussionPage. Oh and thanks for the compliments. they really buoy my ego. Anne

OOOOOOOOOOooooooooooooooooooooOOOHHHHHHH!!!!! Very pretty!

It's gorgeous Anne! Isn't paper piecing the Bomb! LOL!

Got something done besides studying math over my Xmas break !! Thank you, thank you for starting this journey on this project...

Very pretty blocks everyone. Here are my 45 & 46. Love your #47 block. Mine turned out pretty good for doing it with templates. I'm ready to do #53 jackknife. Are we going to do a thread for blocks 26-50.

LOVE everyone's blocks.
Here's my 45 & 46

I don't see why not! Boy, I have to get to work on my back ups.

Hi JanRN, Your blocks turned out great-- Love the Hill & Valley colors!

Here are my blocks for week 23, block 45 & 46. I am using the paperpiecing templets from the yahoo group. I had some problems with block 45. Violet

Hi Violet, Your blocks turned out soooo nice !

The hills and valley with your fabric reminds me of bow ties and tuxedo-real classy !!

My goodness! Here it is Thursday and I forgot to look yesterday! You guyses are certainly zippy! I want to comment on each block separately because they are all so colorful and individual and gorgeous.

Love the purples as always!
The aliens were out-of-this-world!
Anne, RWQuilts, Judy, JanRN, we must be sisters under the skin because I always adore your blocks and your colors!

Now I can't look back to see the other blocks since I'm in reply mode, unless I edit later.

Anywhoooo, the blocks look maahhhvelous!

I like baskets! And looking forward to strange #46!

Kudos everyone!

See? I did come back to edit...AuntJo & Violet's farm: lovely, lovely!

QuiltingNinaSue I always look forward to the fabrics you're going to choose and how you interpret the block. Gotta love those sour grapes!

Deranged Damsel, they're looking good. You are doing a great job. I can't imagine trying this when I was in the early years of quilting!

And Anne....your #47....I am humbled and in awe of your prestigious skill! ;-) That block is stunning!

Thank you Honchey. I am really enjoying this FWS. I have never been in a group before. Violet

Wow, you guys make me not want to post my blocks! Weezie, I love your "space invaders"! janRN, your 46 in neutral batiks is beautiful. Anne, your block 47 surely set a high bar; I hated 47, which I wanted to toss out and had such trouble putting together. (sigh) But, here are my current blocks. Not especially eye candy (46 may get done over), but they'll do for now.

Evie, Nonsense! :-D I like your blocks! Don't use this quilt-along as a tool to beat yourself up! We're all at different stages. I know I'm learning a lot from doing these blocks...and people here have helped me with difficulties. We're in it for fun and camaraderie. No quilt police here... and don't you use an internal quilt police sergeant to make you unhappy! <<<HUGS>>>

I think we all have blocks we are not fond of, but I think when they are all together in the finished quilt they will not stand out as they do now. I keep looking at my display wall and saying, "I don't like that one, or that one is to dark", but once they are all sewn together you don't see the individual blocks, but the quilt as a whole. You blocks will blend in just fine!!

The blocks are all wonderful!!!

Quilting Nonnie, I agree with you! I always look forward to seeing yours as well!

Evie I love your blocks-the red, white, and black is going to make an awesome quilt. And Violet-your basket has such perfect triangles.
I'm just in awe of each block posted!! I'm running out of adjectives!!!

These pictures are all so lovely. A huge pat on the back to all of you who've been able to keep up the pace. I'm looking forward to getting caught up soon.

Finally finished this weeks blocks. I thought I was finished yesterday but when I went to take the picture I realized I sewed one of the pieces upside down! URG

Fixed now :)

Here they are

Wow, everyone's blocks are so fantastic! It continues to amaze me how the different color combinations impact the block presentations. I love the red/blank/white and of course purple is one of my favorite colors - don't get to work with that much.

Great work everyone - and great support too. This is a fantastic project to learn measuring, piecing, and getting corners to line up. :)

Here are my blocks 45 and 46.

Love them!!

Ok here are my next two blocks, now I am off to tackle block 47
Hope you like them, I don't post often but I do enjoy seeing everyones blocks they all look fantastic :thumbup:

Very pretty, Mirabelle! I love your choice in fabrics. The muted colors in 23 are very pretty. I love the way you did #46!
