Oh, it's so much fun to come over here and find all these wonderful blocks!

That Hot Wind block is a stunner!

MJP if you don’t like your bonus block it will go perfect with my purple and orange blocks VBG

TG and Kass amazing blocks! Actually, everything has been incredible so far. I lost my motivation to sew tonight, however, I will be right over for the G & T!

I think you've outdone yourself here and I'm very appreciative! Thank you so much! Now, did I hear we were serving up gin & tonics?

MJP - Fabulous block - love everything about it! Hmmm.. what to do with strawberries??

Strawberry shortcake on a plate?

Later is on a roll. Fine blocks all around.

MJP, your dh may have designed it but you executed it beautifully. I can taste the marmalade now. :)

Klaws, Pamela and Kass great blocks. I love seeing the same blocks in different fabrics.
Travelinggramma here’s the one designed by DH for you.

TG, wonderfully bright and cheery! Love it.

MJP - thank your husband for such wonderful inspiration and I thank you for making it! I am loving it!
Terri - will get the blender going!

This block is for theMerkelFamily. I have named it hot wind. As I was finishing picking all the paper out of the back, the furnace went on , and the pieces went fluttering all over! Kaffe patterns are my nemesis. Its beautiful, but I am OCD and have to push myself to work with the colors and patterns. But thanks to the booms, I am overcoming it, one block at a time. Hope it is what you wanted.

Kass, the things you can do with repeats! Love them both.

I was able to get 8 repeats from the F8 and was able to get this block

I noticed after getting the 45' triangles cut that I had two stacks of half 45' triangles that were mirror imaged, so what's a fussy cutting addict such as myself suppose to do, just ignore that!!!!!!!! Well of course not. Here is the second block I was able to get from the half triangles.

I promise this is purple, almost exactly the color of purple in the print, but my inside lights and flash always turn purple blue.

It's so interesting to see all of the variations of the same design, Kass. It really showcases the fabrics so well yet looks so different every time - fantastic, again!

TheMerkleFamily 02-20-2019 06:15 AM

Another good idea! I do think I want to showcase the strawberries the most so will keep thinking about this one..
