Last two Dunes blocks. It has been fun playing with all your awesome fabrics, I hope you will be able to use the blocks in your quilts.

JayneW and Joanelizbay, both of these were made with the Lazy Angle ruler

Love those special blocks, Mona!

Not that I mind going, it just doesn't fit in with the timeline I had in my head!

For PamelaOry is a block called Windblown Square. I have a hard time mixing stripes, dots, and patterns together so I hope this works for you.

The second block is for Sewbizgirl. I don't know the name of it so please tell me if you know it.

Thank you for making this for me, B'stone! I love it. I don't know the name, but it reminds me of the milky way. I have a huge book for identifying blocks, and I bet it's in there somewhere.

The Windblown Square came out really cool, too. I think it totally works to treat the stripes and dots like regular prints and just go for it!

I spent today sewing blocks together for two different quilts. It's such a relief to have them as one top (each) than a pile of blocks. I had a productive sewing day!

Beautiful! Somebody has been using up 9 Patches. Love them both, but that Zigzag one really stands out to me. I've not seen that setting before. I've got to get on mine.

This is the top I made from my swapped 9 patches... and I have enough left to do another!

Been hitting the scraps hard... but these haven't even made a dent!

There are a couple of boom scraps in the garlic knot quilt... towards the top! :o

I love it! Thank you! It’s amazing how you got those stripes to line up so exactly, wow!

Oh fun lots of great eye candy today. Mona all your blocks turned out great. Very interesting blocks with the lazy angle ruler. Biblistone very fun blocks great block choice for Pamela’s fabric. I love the look of her fabric combinations

sewbiz you have been mighty busy, a real feeling of satisfaction isn’t it. all three are fabulous. Now we can wait and see how you quilt them

So many pretties - love the Tahiti trip too
Have had Machine issues lately. My 12 yr old Babylock was donated back to dealer for parts. I got tired of putting money into it each year. I dropped my portable Brother and it is totally off center (no way to make a 1/4" forget about a scant 1/4"). My old Bernina's are still going but too heavy for me to carry to weekly quilt group.
So I now own a new to me Husqvarna Viking Emerald 118. Got through Craigslist - and it is in excellent condition (used by a quilter) and I am back in business.
Maybe I should but the bubble wrap around my machines too!!
