Excellent blocks, GramE! I love how you made Joanelizbay's star in a star...or whatever it's called. Got to love the sugar skull block, too.!

One for Joan and one for Bibliostone, I think. It might have disappeared maybe. Nope it did pop up.

Love the EPP blocks, Kass.

Two fabulous stars, GramE!

I'm still playing with my fmq... practicing different 'meanders' by Angela Walters. Just posted a lap quilt here, where I tried her paisley meander:

Hippie Quilt

It was so much fun!

Love the brown star, looks like a wood / marble inlay table top.

Janice,
It’s Inklingo. Me and the machine have a love/hate relationship! And the weather here has been bringing out the parts of my body that don’t like sitting at the machine. I can’t believe how many blocks i’ve Already made though. The sugar skulls are Waltzing Matilda but I tried to fussy cut it around the center skulls. I always think 11 X 18 is way bigger than it really is! Thank you to all who put even an extra inch on their fat eighth!

Sewbiz, good job girl, pretty soon we’ll be paying you to quilt our tops.

Grame E, love both your blocks, skulls are fun but Star is fantastic.

Haven't been able to sew very much except some hand sewing on binding. It needed done so I guess that's good
It has been a rough last 10 days with having the second round of chemo. I don't think I've ever felt this tired and worn out ever, hope it passes sooner than later. Had radiation on Monday and they have stopped it for a couple of days, getting too much radiation burn and those blisters aren't fun. I go back tomorrow to see if they are going to start again or wait until next Monday. Otherwise, I think I'm doing okay as far as the doctors are concerned. That's really all that matters in the long run, I want a good outcome from all this. Survival is a positive

Thanks again ladies for the beautiful blocks, these quilts will certainly be my "cuddlers"

So sorry the side effects that come with the treatment, Jaba. Sometimes they seem worse, but we then remember they are the means to the end. Survival! I frequently say all you need to do is breath. Sounds like that is where you are. Just breath. Continuing to pray for endurance through this valley. Thanks for the update.

Jaba so good to hear from you. I'm sorry about the exhaustion but I think that is normal with chemo. Hang in there and get plenty of rest. We are all praying for your good outcome!

Jaba, ((((((Hugs)))))) Wish I could be there to help with whatever so you could feel better. The side effects are certainly no fun, but the end result is what we're looking forward to. Hang on. I'm keeping you in my prayers.
