Thanks Libster! Very nice block. I have all 19 blocks sewn..whew! I've made some filler,pieced blocks,and am working on some hand embroidered blocks,plus a central medallion. These are going to be outstanding quilts!

We would love to see these filler blocks too. We do love pictures!

Kass, if the quote is..."Let's face it, we're younger and faster," then my response is "Towanda!" and you might recognize the following...

That's mom at the Whistle Stop Café in Juliette, GA. It's near Macon, where the town was created for the film. Same movie???

Absolutely, what an awesome pic. She even looks like the older Iggy. The first time I watched that movie while that police man was eating the BBQ, I thought to myself, hummm I wonder???? No, you watch too much Criminal minds, then towards the end you learn I was right!!!!!

Love that movie. We gave visited a few of the whistle stop cafes and eaten fred green tomatoes.
Francie. ..all 19!!! Wow. Great blocks too. What size are your fillers? Pictures necessary!
Got two done but need to trim, and need daylight for that!!

And the "younger / faster" quote wasn't my favorite, her response "Face it I'm older and have more insurance" is one of my favorites.

Love that movie. I read the book first and belly laughed through several sections, not the least of which was the funeral for the arm. We go to Juliette a couple of times a year. The "town" is neat, no longer than a 1/16 of a mile long, but the cafe used to have a lot more memorabilia. Last time we were there, a train rolled through. Added to our enjoyment. Yeah, I always do a double-take if I order BBQ. 😉

“That's what I'm living on now, dreams, dreams of what I used to do.”
