Welcome NZQuilter, you have joined a great group with lots of fun and talented ladies!

Terriamn, hoping for the best results for your upcoming surgery. You will be super busy this time around with your upcoming trip to Mexico and the surgery to follow.

Jaba, a day doesn't go by that you are not on my mind. Hope each day gets even a little better.

That sounds like a lovely outing, Lstew! Whoever put a quilt store by a restaurant was smart thinking!

I washed my fabric last night and will iron and start cutting it today. We have ice and below zero wind chills warnings this weekend so I don't think we will be going anywhere. Suits me!

Cheesehead Mexico will be my last hurrah to my old life. Just praying my poor ole back will be back to it’s old self by the time we go.

MarciaLee I sent you a PM

Coke and Pepsi? I do better remembering the difference when the names don't rhyme, start with the same letter, or have the same number of letters and/or syllables. Waves and Dunes... I never knew which was which! :D

All great name ideas! I'm one of the "newbies" and am excited about joining. I love reading all of the comments and am enjoying the happy and welcoming spirit of the group!

Terriamn and Jaba I have been thinking about my quilting friends and wishing I could make you better. Hang in there!

Is anyone going to ROAD TO CALIFORNIA the quilt show in Ontario, CA next week? I am going on Thursday January 24th. I would love to meet up with you if you are going. I met up with darcy at the Sisters quilt show. It was so much. She knows so much about quilting and I got so many quilting ideas. It was really fun. Would love to meet with one of my quilting board friends.

getting 12-20" of snow tomorrow night into sunday. Wish I had my fabrics. Will be a good day for sewing and football. Can't wait to begin.

Marcialee, sounds almost like heaven to me. :) I’ll be doing Boom admin while it rains here almost all day. I’ll sneak in some of my BH Wild and Goosey blocks though. I put them down for way too long but worked on a dozen yesterday between other jobs and just started another dozen. My cutting space is a catastrophe, not to mention the floor with hundreds of minuscule scraps and threads.

MJP, would that I could! Enjoy the show and tell us if you see anything remarkable. :)

Janice, I had to look up the Wild and Goosey quilt blocks as I hadn't heard of them before. The finished quilts I saw are just beautiful! The individual blocks look small and so does the finished block with the four blocks sewn together. I enjoy paper piecing and think this is a project to definitely add to my "to do" list.

Janice McC 01-18-2019 02:06 PM

I love those blocks! I’ve got so many small scraps that work for them. 13 scraps per 3.5 inch corner block. I’ve got about 150 done but will need many more. I <3 the Booms but my soul is scrappy. I think I could keep making them forever. At this rate, I will be doing so forever.
