Terriamn and NanaKathy55 - Wow! I love both of them! Thanks so much! :thumbup:

I'm up and in the process of getting caffeinated. Will start on more blocks as soon as I'm completely awake! LOL! :D

Post deleted ... I had a "duh" moment. :)

Thanks JoaneLiz, both blocks are super. Can't wait to show Joseph all the blocks

I love my blocks so far, they are simply beautiful. All of the blocks completed so far are great. I act in our community theater and every evening until after Labor Day, we have rehearsal. My sewing has slowed down until the weekend.

Lstew I will be heading back to lake not sure when I will return, no weekend sewing for me.

Squeeee! I wanna keep this block! LOL! It's one of those that practically put itself together. The fish screamed "batik" to me, so I poked around in my batiks. Aha! I found some nifty "ocean wave" fabric that I'd been saving for something special! :thumbup: Then I found some green batik that I'd originally considered somewhat beauty-challenged, but I looked at it more closely and hey! It's seaweed! :D Hope you like the little ocean scene, Joanelizbay! This one was so much fun to make.

After ironing them, I plop them onto my cutting mat, snap a picture with my camera, and use Photoscape (it's free) to crop out the extra, resize, and add the name. :)

For MonaG. It's called Bed of Stars, and it's from Quilter's Cache. It was a 9" block, but I sized it up. Hope you like it! :)

Love that fish block, Moonrise. The batik looks like a big coral to me. It's the perfect environment for fish to live. Your star is amazing too!

Aw, thanks! :)

.....

Here's the block I made for LUM. Hope you like it! It's hard to tell from the picture, but both of the fabrics I added have metallic gold in them. On the 2-1/2" squares, I only had 12 of them. I wasn't sure how I'd use them, so I stashed them away. When sorting through my box of patriotic fabrics, they jumped out at me. :D Hope you like the block. It's kind of a cross between a Jacob's Ladder and a Contrary Wife block. :)
