Sewbizgirl! Your blocks are awesome. I love the fabrics choices in them all, but the one for Quilter Momma is just perfect. And the Glacier Bay block for Terriamn jumps off the page. Gorgeous!

[QUOTE=QuilterMomma;
Ok, here is the sweet culprit who ate my quilt. She actually has eaten three of them and the dog blanket that is in the kennel. Aren't they so innocent when they are sleeping.[/QUOTE] Awwww.. I am sure that sweet pup won't do such a thing! LOL.. |

And for JoanLiz, an open Bible. I couldn't bear to chop up the scriptures on this fabric, so I put them in a Bible! Joan, hope you don't mind my adding the gold leaf. [ATTACH=CONFIG]587739[/ATTACH] |
Hav4boys.. Love my block!! perfect pop of purple. :)

This block is for Bluelady. It's a Spike Ball. |

That is amazing! Totally perfect block for the fabric. Is that stitching to add the page edges?

Great blocks, Terri! Janice's block looks exotic. I'm working on my last block now and then will move on to Quail's. Just taking a break and looking at the QB....

Not as productive as I thought I was going to be today but I did manage to make another block. This block is for Nana Kathy.[ATTACH=CONFIG]587845[/ATTACH]

Very pretty Cheesehead
|
Thanks Teri. It's so dark and rainy here today that the picture turned out a little too dark. I thought I was going to accomplish so much sewing today because of the rain but it had the opposite effect on me. Not too much ambition!

These blocks seemed to have come together so fast I can hardly believe it. I'm done with this group, so here's the last of them.
Janice McC- this pattern I just started sewing and this is what it ended up[ATTACH=CONFIG]587848[/ATTACH]Libster - boys nonsense[ATTACH=CONFIG]587849[/ATTACH] LJDugas- crystal star[ATTACH=CONFIG]587850[/ATTACH] MonaG - double star[ATTACH=CONFIG]587851[/ATTACH]NanaKathy55- 5 diamonds[ATTACH=CONFIG]587852[/ATTACH] QuilterMomma- grandma's favorite[ATTACH=CONFIG]587853[/ATTACH]Terriamn- Indian[ATTACH=CONFIG]587854[/ATTACH]sewbizgirl- king's crown[ATTACH=CONFIG]587855[/ATTACH] bluelady- Salt Lake City[ATTACH=CONFIG]587856[/ATTACH] and cheesehead- Rocky Road to CA[ATTACH=CONFIG]587857[/ATTACH] |
Really beautiful blocks, ladies!
A week ago I thought it would be nearly impossible to make so many different ones in 2 months! |
More lovely blocks Jaba, thanks for my great block
Funny I wonder why most of us have been able to make ours so fast this time. The only fabric I am having difficulty matching is the green in Sewbiz’s fabric. |

For that green, just use anything you have that looks good with the fabric. Or go with the blues... Jaba, that was a load of work! Thank you for my block.... So much fun to see all your blocks. Well, I'm sticking a fork in you, Hummingbird. You are done. :D Here are my last three and now I'll be working on my Quail blocks... but still cheering all the Hummingbirds on. This is a Beacon Star, for Cheesehead: [ATTACH=CONFIG]587870[/ATTACH] A Delaware Crosspatch for Hav4Boys: [ATTACH=CONFIG]587871[/ATTACH] And my favorite... Checkered Star for Bluelady: [ATTACH=CONFIG]587872[/ATTACH] Bluelady, the background green in my photo looks very washed out, but it is actually a very good match for your swatch. :) |
Jaba love my block! Stars are my favorite Thank you
|
Sewbiz love your last three blocks, fun colors, fun fabrics and great center fabric for H4b’s
|
Looking great here ladies! I need to get moving on mine! Oh, if you have any fabric left over, I would like to get it back. I didn't have much of it, so it will help to get it back.
I appreciate it! |

Here’s mine for Joanelizbay. Sorry, it’s rainy outside so the lighting isn’t great. Hope this will work with your other blocks. :)

Your block turned out great Janice
|
Love it Janice!

Jaba, your instinct served you well. Thank you!

Great block for Joan, Janice. Nice fussy cutting of the bold words!
|

SBG, thank you for sending me to that site she has lots of pretty block designs. I saw a few patterns that I think I would like to try. :)

Here are my blocks for today. For Hav4boys[ATTACH=CONFIG]587920[/ATTACH]get your sunglasses on!
For Bootsy[ATTACH=CONFIG]587921[/ATTACH] For Bibliostone[ATTACH=CONFIG]587922[/ATTACH] Bootsy I did a miss-cut on your fabric but was still able to make a block. I personally am not happy with how it looks and would be more than happy to make another block if you still have more fabric. I will also pay the postage both ways, just pm me and let me know. |
"Bootsy I did a miss-cut on your fabric but was still able to make a block."
Ha! Now we know you are a true Boomer. We've all done the same thing and had to figure a way to still pull it off. Way to go! BTW.. I like that block. |
Cheesehead, I thought your block for Bootsy looked great! I was wondering if it was some sort of Celtic cross.... I like it too.
Your other blocks are pretty, as well. :o |
"Bootsy I did a miss-cut on your fabric. Ha! Now we know you are a true Boomer. Ahhh Libster, that's the best compliment of all! |

Bootsy, I did the miss cut not Libster (hanging my head in shame):(

I like the block cheese...if you wouldnt have mentioned it noone would have known!! Finished 2 today after I got home from quilters. I think I have the nicest quilter possible!! One of the 4 grandkids has confirmed flu...sure hope the other 3 dont get it. The Dr said rest, liquid and isolation were what she needed to do. 2nd day and still has a 101 fever. :(
I have a question for you experts. Im going to try a curved log cabin. The pattern calls for 1 -2 1/2 strip print ...then it says 1- 1 1/2 strip roll solid. My question is would it be easier to get a 2 1/2 solid pack and cut it down to the 1 1/2 size or just cut solids from my stash that are 1 1/2". I dont think Ive ever seen a 1 1/2 strip for sale?? The pattern is from Missouri Star Quilt.. Thanks. These blocks are for cheesehead and Biblostone |

I only got one block done this weekend, but I have prepped for several more. the practice block did not turn out how I hoped so I had to find a different pattern.
This block is for Terriamn. |
Thank you for the lovely block Joanelizbay.
The flu is just terrible down here in Alabama too. It seems everyday the newscasters are announcing a death regarding the flu. The last two people were so young, one was a 10 year old child and another a 46 year old woman. It seems by the time they came down with it they died within 4 days. Hoping your grandchild recovers real soon and doesn't give it to the rest of the family. |
Thanks Mona, the block is great looks 3 deminsional.
Joan sorry I don’t know which would be easier. I prefer to make blocks a little larger and cut them down, but when working with curves your blocks can get distorted when you cut them down Hope your granddaughter recovers from the flu quickly. It is running rampant here. |
