I'm about to the point of checking for what bonus blocks I can make too.... but I did make a point to try and use as much of the original fabric as I could in the blocks. So, for most of you there isn't enough left! I don't want to make a block with just a crumb of your fabric in it. I don't think that would be cohesive with your quilt! :D

I do love making some bonus blocks, when I run out of the other.

I didn't make 1block, i made 12 more. You ladies can look on the other group but I try to make sure I have enough fabric that your material stands out if it doesn't then I don't make the block. Not sure sewbizgirl, but I think everyone's fabric has stood out. It has certainly challenged my thought process on making up my own blocks.

Your bonus blocks look great, Jaba! Just as pretty as your main block for everyone. I hope I have enough fabric to do a few too.

I hope you sail through the surgery and heal fast. I'll be thinking about you and I'll keep you in my prayers. On the bright side, someone can open your package of blocks for you when they come home. That always makes me feel better when I can start drooling over them.

Libster thank you ! Prayers are wonderful! I will love to get my package and just look at them !

I am sorry I haven't checked in. I dream of the day retirement comes. I have to say the blocks made this BOOM are just spectacular. I knew you could make something beautiful out of my "ugly" fabric and you have not disappointed. I have been reading the pages and all caught up. I should be able to post some photos tomorrow and I am working away bringing up the rear.

Yay, we would LOVE to see what you've been working on, Lisa. Sorry your stupid job gets in the way of your quilting... Jobs are really aggravating that way! :D :D :D
