That's gorgeous, Joan. I think tiny pops of color will enhance the print, too.

Joan, beautiful block! I love the red with it. I'll see if I have a matching blue or red when I get your F8. Out of all that fabric in my sewing room, I should have something.

Can do. It's much easier to just make sure nobody gets duplicates than it is for me to open them up and make sure there are two in some and one in others. That way, also, when the blocks come back, all I have to do is count baggies. Easy peasy.

Just an update on what I've rec'd to date from this group. I've rec'd blocks from LJDugas, Terriamn and Bootsy. Some packages are hung up in transit, prob due to the weather. Delivery dates appear to be pushed back to Monday on a few.

For those who haven't yet shipped or packed their envelopes, please don't use the ziplock baggies with HARD sliding zippers. While you may have room in your mailing packages, when I have to put them in other mailing envelopes for those with two groups, they can be problematic. You wouldn't think they'd take up a lot of room but they do and they tear tightly packed packages. Please use the cheaper ziplocks without the hard zipper for the individual packages. Thanks!

I haven't posted any fabric photos since I'm sending several different orange or purple prints trying to use up my stash. I did a practice block using my colors for this boom, I really like this pattern and plan to do a fall colors quilt and probably several boom 18 blocks also

That's pretty, Mona. So you are sending out all different oranges and purples? I sent all fabrics I had too. I feel really convicted about all my fabric. I have way more than I need and I really want to use some of it up! Maybe it's the New Year and a need to do better in 2017!

yep, I sent out about 9 different fabrics so there are a couple of each fabric. I am very excited about how this quilt will turn out.
