Oooooo. Ahhhhhhh. Everyone, your blocks and quilts are gorgeous! I am still putting in overtime so no quilting for me yet. Good thing I signed up for the 3 month BOOM.

Janice - your pansies are starting to grow up to be beautiful blocks.

I have used my time to organize, look at new patterns, trying out those new patterns - actually sewing them by hand as can't use sewing machine in RV with a 2yo!! Have some new ideas (for me anyway) and want to really take my time and enjoy each and every block. Rereading the requests on fabric colors and desires; and asking questions.

ibex - everyone works at different rates. I usually put everything aside and work on the blocks. then sit and wait and give my blocks second thoughts. Decided to do things differently this time!!

I agree I only signed up for the 3 month group so I wouldn't feel pressure to hurry the blocks and would have time to make some more intriquet blocks if they "spoke" to me.

That pansy fabric is gorgeous! It's growing on me:), cut it out today and will sew tomorrow. Another one that I love is ljdugas, your grand daughter will love this, would love love to see this one when it is done, hope you can post a pic Linda!

I totally agree on both those fabrics Jaba, I am not a lover of pastels and pink, but that ballerina fabric is just so pretty.

Wow so many pretty blocks I can't decide which one I like the best, you ladies sure have been busy.
I've been working on both of the quilts I did for the reunion and they are now finished & I had to make a baby quilt for a shower this week end, so yes I've been busy.
Last night I couldn't sleep so I sat up all night and made 2 blocks. The first one is a Floating Boxes for Francie and the 2nd one is Heart Ribbons for LJDugas. I love the ballerinas but I don't have much as far as girly fabric so I hope this one will work for you.
You ladies sure have up the game on Moon???'s (forget which one) 60's quilt, I've got a couple of things in mind but haven't decide which one I'm going to do yet.
Well maybe I can go to sleep now. See you all later.
