I can put that together in a few hours and get it to the LA fast, before the Christmas rush. So I'm back to wondering what I will send. Greys probably. Or I have a lot of turkey reds that would be great with blacks. Hmmmm. Better decide soon.

Just an fyi, no additional sign-ups for the 2 month group since the last list was posted. Enjoy the rest of your evening.

Well thats is depressing I was so excited about that. because this is about me not your son right? hahahaha :/

Joan what a cutie, hope he decides to play the piano.

All my fabric is washed, ironed and cut. Still have to bag up one of the groups. Will take pictures tomorrow.

What a cute little piano player!

Billi, how lucky you are to have those two sisters.

Perhaps a few of you 3-month-ers would like to play in the 2 month group too?

I just got my Row by Row quilt finished and posted it in pictures. Now if I can find one of my quilt shops that hasn't gotten a winner yet, I may win the fat quarters! You can see it here:

yeah, I love how they constructed the chicken coop in that one. So cute. That would make a great banner for a kid's room. BTW, I'm going to a workshop in Mobile Thursday and will be passing through Hattiesburg where that kit came from. If you or anybody wants a kit I could pick them up. Pattern and fabrics with the interfacing already fused on for $12.99 plus tax! (That was the cheapest kit I found.) PM me before Thursday. Or I could just get you a pattern, but it's hard to find the chicken wire and wood fabrics without a kit.

Bill lucky you to have your fun 2 sisters to hang with. I'm heading to Oregon next week to meet my sister whose in Alaska. When she comes down to the lower 48 my sister whose about an hour & I try to meet up. Should be fun.

Love your row Robin. How in the order did you end up with the one from Perham Mn? That is about 30 minutes from my sisters. Think I am going to make table runner for the lake out of mine
