When you were at Glendo State Park, you were about 3 1/2 hours from my house. So close and yet so far...
All my blocks are from the book 501 Rotary Cut Blocks by Judy Hopkins. Bought this the 1st year I did the booms and have used it every time. I'm working on Kass's block today....again...had to take it all apart. Kept thinking "gees this looks big" did I check NO. You had a very nice 14" block Kass but all those pieces came apart and it will end up 12". My seam ripper and I were good friends yesterday

Sewbiz love your quilt, like the others I can't believe you made it that quickly.

grame I still think it's amazing you stitch most of your blocks by hand. Such tiny stitches

MJB since you are still working how do you take 2 months off of work?

Found the pattern for Biblistone, will make that next so no one beats me to the draw.

Yes, same place. Jenny Doan at Missouri Star Quilts.

I called it the wrong name tho. It's Quartered Stripes, not squared stripes.

I've got 2 finished this afternoon. The first is for Terriamn, "Pieced Hearts".

Second one is for TravelingGramma. It's "Aunt Sukey's Choice". I think a gremlin has taken up residence in my camera. TG, your fabric is a beautiful purple, but this picture makes it look blue. Hope I got your color values close enough for what you wanted.

Great blocks Jaba

libster love my block. Think more red tones down the wildness of my focus fabric. Showed dh some of my blocks and his reply was what were you thinking of when you bought that and why did you decide to use it. He has no sense of adventure.

More beautiful blocks. Jaba I love my Day of the Dead block. You ladies are doing such a fantastic job with a fabric I think many of you were perplexed with. Much better than I would have done with it.

Well I worked with another fabric I didn't want to cut up today. Marrieta here is the one I made for you. That grey fabric is one of my favorites but it didn't play well with any of my other fabrics. It plays well with yours. Hope you like the block.
