LIzzy Bennet is such a fluff ball. Love it!

Janice, and others, have your read "The Other Bennet Sister" by Janice Hadlow? It continues the story of Mary Bennet and does a good job at caring on the flavor of the original Austin books. I have "read" aka listened to it twice and enjoyed it both times. I so wish Jane Austin had published more novels in her life time. Six was just not enough.

WMUTeach, I haven’t read “The Other Bennet Sister” but I just requested it from the library. Luckily it’s checked in. I’ll get it on Tuesday. I have read other novels which continue the storyline though.

Reba, I also read Austen regularly. I, too, wish she had written more books. I read the Brontë sisters and historical novels set in similar periods as well. My mother was born in England and those novels just appeal to me.

I did notice that I must have forgotten to post LStew and Terriamn so here are their blocks. Then I realized that A2P made the same block for LStew! Totally different colors though.
And I had posted SBG blocks at #814

Janice Thank you so much for putting them all on the site. I love looking back over the years and seeing all the various blocks and material and designers. So many memories wrapped up in each one.
Beautiful block for me TG, I love it. I don't mind getting the same blocks because they will always look different with colors

Lizzy Bennet is beautiful.

Just an FYI, I'm going to open Sign-ups for Boom 33 on January 12, 2025.

(blocks pulled)
I put a reminder in my Calendar and I think I have picked out my fabric. I might be doing two groups this time.

Lstew, German Shepherds are the only dog species I am scared of, bad childhood experience. But Remy looks beautiful.

TG beautiful blocks. I love mine.

Reba great blocks, especially the cow. Kitty looks pretty content

January 12th will be easy for me to remember, it’s my oldest dd’s birthday.

Good morning.

Reba, your cow is so fun and adorable. I’ll add it in today.

Glad to hear some of you are already thinking of Boom 33. I believe I’ll be doing two sets as well. I have some batiks to send.

Ernie has a new coat and he doesn’t want to take it off. What a funny pup. Tomorrow is his first appointment with our vet. There’s so much to discuss but happily none of his issues really seem to affect his quality of life much.

Blocks are due in 11 days. Have a good one.

Loved seeing your latest blocks, TG and Reba. The cow is adorable! I'm still enjoying it when new blocks show up here.

The gallery looks awesome. Janice does a great job.

Really enjoying seeing all of the latest blocks!

Happy to hear that Ernie is adapting so well to his new home.

Been digging around in my fabric stash looking for a fabric I know I have. Will look some more tomorrow for it, it's possible it could be back in Wisconsin, but I would bet dollars to doughnuts it's down here. I will be back for Boom 33 and plan to do two groups.

Cheese, your fabric is in there! At least mine usually is, it just takes a few minutes (hours, days) to lay my hands on it. One time I had some bagged up in a grocery store bag, hung on a hook on the back of the sewing room door. Of course I couldn’t find it because it couldn’t be seen when the door was open. Now it’s the first place I look!

Glad to hear you’ll be coming back in January!
