Love your blocks Jaba. Hope I get some.

Thanks Cro, just glad I already had them done and sent. This quilt I'm working on is driving me nuts, not just the quilt but a whole house worth of stuff. Dining room table runner and placemats for 8, kitchen table, runners for 2 living rooms, runner for family/TV room, 2 night stands, dresser, chest of drawers and then an oversized King size quilt. Been doing the quilt this weekend and still have the borders to go. It will be 118x118...This is it so far [ATTACH=CONFIG]469465[/ATTACH]

That is a beautiful quilt you are working on. What you have going would take me about 2 yrs. I don't know how you do it!!

It's called retired....at least from my original occupation

CRO

That would explain it. I'm gone 11 hrs a day during the week for my job.

Your time will come, something you have to look forward to. At least I did for many years.

CRO and jaba - really beautiful blocks. I wasn't going to join for April....but maybe.... It helps that the deadline is May 15. I'm a newbie and already overcommitted for April, ha! ha!

Oops! My fault - I meant May 30! That's what I get for reading mutiple posts before coffee. It's the candy swap that changed due date from April to May.

Good thing, you have 2 more weeks than what you thought! Maybe we'll see blocks from you???? The more the merrier, variety you know.

The other factor is how much I improve while making the patriotic D4P! My first block looked odd directionally (note to self - watch your stripes). Second block was too small. Third block, just right...but then I left for Arizona on spring break. So let's see if I can remember what I did right and make the rest of my blocks turn out like the third one. Time is the issue. Five kiddos and a hubby here needing mama, too.
