At least 3 of you should get your pkgs today. The remaining 3, tomorrow. Be sure to count and make sure everything is there. I'm off for a few days but the last of the Night Owls packages came in so the rest of you in both groups will have your F8s's ahead of schedule as well. Talk to you all soon!

DH will get change the next time he's in town for something, so I should be ready to mail this weekend.
I'm sending assorted tonal solids - no duplicates - with instructions to use prints, but no neutrals (no blacks, whites, creams/beiges or greys). I want the patterns to be due to different colors/patterns, and not the typical "light/dark"that we think of.
I'll post some pictures of what I'm thinking to help give a better idea of the concept. Though you are free to do something else if you prefer.

And I just realized I'm completely out of solid white! How did that happen? Darn. I'll have to go fabric shopping. I just hate that.

I received my package today and the count is good. I went ahead and made a few blocks. Moonrise Pick which block you would like. I was originally going to put the framed 4 squares with the square on point. Then I realize that it would have been too big of a block (17.5" square) so I made two blocks and I still have a 5.5" square of fabric left.[ATTACH=CONFIG]615728[/ATTACH][ATTACH=CONFIG]615729[/ATTACH][ATTACH=CONFIG]615730[/ATTACH][ATTACH=CONFIG]615731[/ATTACH]
Terriamn, these are the light grey tone on tones I have. Choose which ones you would like to go with your fabrics. I have 2 of your baggies.[ATTACH=CONFIG]615732[/ATTACH]

I received my package and have had a great day with it.
First 3 are for Mona.

Two for Libster

And one for Moonrise. I thought the simple design will be great for a bag. I will enclose the extra fabric for a pocket or two.
