Billi - oh this fabric is so much fun - I can see couches, couch potato, kittys, cup of tea, bottle of wine, ....
All2 - love LEO - you will have to include some insight as to whom it is going to or used.
Marietta - Love dick and jane and have some matching. Also picked up a bundle of the other material at a yard sale this summer - (they gave be a whole bag of Quilt store quality FQ for $5!)
Joanne - wow - how large is that quilt?? I didn't get that material to play with but see many familiar ones. beautiful.
Applique - I love applique. I love PP. I have loved everyones hard work. What one is great at, may not what I do best!

Here are my fabrics and inspiration. My 11 yr old GD is getting a new larger bed. Her favorite color is rainbow. So when I had seen this quilt I thought if each of you took a color and made it into a block that read that color it would be awesome. What do you think?

I have 18 of them. While cutting I got distracted by a shinny object so when I got to the end I only had about 9 inches left
I left it at 40 wide so if all 20 slots are filled I'll ask if someone would be willing to work with a 9x40 piece instead of an F8. If no one is willing I'll keep it and some one will get a leftover f8 one from a past boom quilt that is still unfinished. sometimes my ability to screw up simple tasks amazes me.

Joan love everything about that quilt, the colors, the layout, the blocks, even the orange quilting! I love a contrasting quilt thread, mostly b/c your quilting has to be good to do it and mine isn't anywhere near good enough. (my quilting is barely good enough for matching thread)
