All I ask is you stay in the Christmas color scheme of cranberry red, dark green, creams and dark gold,, You can go traditional blocks or seasonal, just have fun

I had not completely decided if the frogs were going to be appliqued to the blocks themselves or to the background of the quilt, if there are lily pads I would applique frogs onto them.
Your fussy cutting and piecing were both amazing by anyones standards.

No need to make more work for yourself Janice. This is just an oddball boom. The system has worked for booms many times. We appreciate you Janice. You're always trying to improve things. If you come up with something you like better I'll be happy to follow it. I know its been a lot of work for you!
Marika and I both have a question for Kassaundra: Are you going to applique the frogs onto our blocks? If so I want to make a block with lilypads so the frogs have a place to land. Hee hee

I don't know about boom 1 but the requests are about the same since I have been doing them.

MJP great piecing, way to go girl.
Cheesehead Happy Birthday.
Love all the blocks. Only have 2 left to make for the early birds then I will be hopping over to the night owls.
I requested to use tone on tone fabrics of colors in the fabric except please do not use the green as that will be the lattice and to please have the block read pastel. I can’t remember if I said anything about using white. Can someone clarify that.
Thanks Terri

My middle granddaughter Abby turned 16 today. We went to the Minneapolis Sculpture garden and I thought you might like to see some of our great city.

The blue rooster, it is a beautiful shade of Moroccan blue

Thought this bunny looked just like the bunnies on my fabric for Early Birds
