Roma, that is how I do almost all of my quilts. One thing I try to make sure I do is to use each fabric at least 3 times at various places in the quitl. So it has multiple fabrics but is not disconnected.

Great idea. I never thought if it that way!

I'd watch it then DD!!! LOL

Wow. Candi your block has got such contrast, I love your background fabric. Beautiful.

heres mine[ATTACH=CONFIG]439835[/ATTACH][ATTACH=CONFIG]439836[/ATTACH]

I love batiks! Your blocks are just fabulous in batiks!:thumbup:

Oh Candi I was gonna look at your fabrics before we left the retreat & got busy. Ya did git 'em at Batik's Galore didn't ya? Your block just glows! :thumbup:
Just happy blocks! I love 'em. :thumbup:

Thanks all.
Bev, none of the fabs in this block are from Batik's a Galore. But I a did buy a few ( ahem) FQs and fat rights from them and surely some will make their way into these blocks. Have I ever told you how much I love batiks ? Haha.

Candi...I agree with Bev...your block just glows.
Roma...looks like a holiday quilt in the making. Really pretty.

Hello ladies, I have wedges finished for block 1 and 2, better late than never, slow and steady wins the race.

I am using the navy for all blocks.

ENJOY!!!

and of course my camera washes out the blocks... sigh! oh well!

Neat, D_D. is it going to be a quilt or table runner? Love you colors.

I agree everyone's blocks are so pretty and so different from one another. These BOMs are fun!!

What beautiful blocks I love your color combinations and the use of the pale grey as a secondary background very nice.

DDamsel I love your use of dark blue, very striking, can't wait to see more

Candace, I love your blocks. And hey, you are not late, I just made block one so far:) I do have a date with block 2 tomorrow, hopefully I won't get ditched haha.

Thanks Ladies :D this is my FIRST real project for PP... I have tried in the past and not been very successful. I am taking it slow with these and not messing it up to badly!

NinaSue. I dont know what I am making these into yet. I havent sewn them together because Im not sure what dirrection I want to go. :D

D_D, You're still ahead of me...:D You're blocks are lovely and I love the way the colors contrast...I didn't even notice that they aren't sewn together!!!

Very pretty, Roma and deranged damsel. Thanks for sharing!

Oops- posted these on the wrong thread- here is my block 2 and a pic of 1 and 2 together. My DH is liking this:)

I like your blocks, too. MrJanRN doesn't comment on my sewing other than to say "that's interesting" but he really likes these blocks.

Candi love your cactus rose block and the grey is great as your background I don't see it used often so it makes it more interesting.

I just finished Loosy goosy. I have diamonds all around finished also. Got photos today,maybe this evening I will put them in the pc. cant wait to start the next one.

Diamonds all around and log cabin are the blocks for October. We'll post Loosey Goosey and Tiger in November. Glad you're enjoying this project.:thumbup:

Neat, but this section was for September, SYE, blocks one and two...maybe you could re-post in the right place?? There is an October for three and four and November yet to come for five and six. Watch the headings at each time...they will lead to the right place.

Okay, I'm confused. As of next Friday I will officially be a "senior" and I'm blonde so my senior blonde brain is addled. What blocks are we supposed to be doing? Are we doing them in the order QOTS has them? I'm only on #4. Is that correct?

BTW, the blocks are lovely but I don't think we're supposed to have posted them yet. Or am I the one who's mistaken?

how old are you turning Jan? :D :D :D I keep telling my DH to get older faster... so we can go shopping on senior discount day ;)

Yes! I believe this thread was for block #1 and #2 posted at the beginning and mid month. my #4 is all done and ready to go! for octobers mid month post :D :D :D

I am getting confused as well, its difficult to keep track of the order when things are OUT of order.

sorry nina

DD, old enough that I do get discounts LOL!!! The only time I mention age is when there's a discount involved. There's a quit shop near me that gives a discount of 1/2 your age if you shop there during your birthday month. Let's just say I'll get 32.5% off!!!

Yes Jan, # 4 block is the next block to be posted on the 15th which is next Tuesday...We are doing the blocks in the order the QOTS posted them....They shouldn't be shown out of order and even when posting group photos blocks not officially posted should not be included...it's too confusing otherwise...

As much as we enjoy looking at photos of other projects they really need to be posted in the Pictures section of the Forum .. please.. and Spike photos only in the thread they belong in...

I don't want to rain on anyone's parade but the photos are not being posted where & when they should be...Honchey

Roma, beautiful blocks and I love your skeleton.
