I think they're always the last Sunday of the month. I'm not near a calendar (I suppose there's one here on my 'puter someplace but I'm too dumb to find it) but I assume it's around this same date.

Yep, we've been doing it for several months now... the last Sunday of the month. Super fun, eh?

When my BFF was going thru her chemo, she got a really sexy long blonde wig... so unlike her it wasn't even funny. Which is what made it so great. Her theory was that cancer had turned her into a stone cold fox... LOL!

Finished the Color Pools table runner. Just goes to prove there is no such thing as a perfect square or circle. But we like it. Have to go to grocery store then maybe attack the red/black/white asian quilt.

What is a fussy cut??

The fussy cut border has the same design on each of the four strips. In this border, the 9 1/2" wide strip is centered over a strip of roses. Since the border is centered over the roses, you have to make more cuts. There is excess fabric between each strip. I did not enjoy cutting those borders; but they are beautiful and will be mitered.

When I started planning the quilt I googled "cancer sayings" and found it, then I thought of the woman in the pose, and the last step was the horizontal strips and ta-da ... a quilt is made.

5 letters sewn down.

This has been lots of fun, reading up on everyone, viewing beautiful projects and different sewing spaces. All so different! Sheep are just too cute. Female shadow is awesome! Company left and I did get to sew up the last borders on my scrappy quilt and it is ready to go on the longarm next week. Yippee!
