I took a few minutes and tossed all my blocks on my design wall.

Holy busy batman :shock: not going to lie it's much busier than I was anticipating......But I love them :omy original plan I was not going to sash them well thats no longer an option I need to calm them down, I'm thinking black. I also have a center medallion I made that these will surround I'm going to have to adjust so I can sash theses.

Once again thank you all for the really wonderful blocks :) [ATTACH=CONFIG]563079[/ATTACH]

Billi and Janice love your blocks all together. You all must have much bigger design walls then me. Maybe I could do it in two shots.

Wow Billi that is more busy then I thought it would be w/ your limited colors. Sashing and more deliberate placement may calm it some. Or maybe making it reversible half on each side w/ alternating solid blocks?

I know my blocks are such a small part of each quilt, but I find much comfort coming here and seeing the beautiful coming together of all the perspectives! Amazing quilts. Amazing friends.

I was going to bring my blocks and camera to work w/ me today to get a group shot, but I forgot. Maybe I can lay them out on a sheet outside at home and get a group shot. (no place big enough in my house for it)

Awesome collection, Billi! You still could put them together without sashing... just arrange them with alternating backgrounds. Or maybe a skinny sashing? I think the boyfriend is going to love it!

I got my squishy in the mail yesterday! What a delight! Thanks for the beautiful, creative blocks everyone! I'm amazed too at those who made me two blocks for me! What a surprise to find a cute present ornament for my Christmas tree! So fun!

THANKS EVERYONE!
Seesaw & Terri, I hope your days will look brighter. This might be my mom's last Christmas. I just cherish the time I have with her.

Kass your pictures are so fun of the chickens! Love the sweaters.

I'm over or at least giving it a darn good try not to be down this Christmas. Putting a big smile on my face and heart and embracing this season of love and joy.
