Moonrise so glad Dh’s finger is healing so well.

Absolutely beautiful day here. Sitting in porch sipping on my coffee. Will head back to lake after rush hour, hope it’s as nice there

Here’s a finish from the Dune Boom, I think. I already made a pink one from this swap and I have to make a few more blocks to finish the third one which will probably be a combo of the pink and blue. They are smaller 48” X 48”, it is difficult for me to wrangle anything much bigger. Tying up as many loose ends as I can but I have loose ends to my left and to my right. I seem to specialize in beginnings! I wasn’t sure where to put this Janice.

I just love that soft blue and white. Beautiful finish! I'll add it to the Completed Projects gallery. :) Thank you, GramE.

Looks like the gallery problems have resolved themselves so I'm going to give it a try again. Fingers crossed!

Pretty quilt, GramE. I see my 'basket'! It was a beautiful fabric to work with.

It is nice to work with. It was a part of Joann’s premium quilting line, one of the first offerings. And it sold out fast in my store. I ran out and actually got some in Louisville via my DIL when she was visiting her sister.

Very pretty Gram E, who is this one for.

i am making the Main Street blocks BOM with Pat Sloan. Only using fabric from my stash. Can’t say it will be mt favorite quilt but we are on just finished block 9 and I am current. Happy with that

I've been looking over the fabrics and requests. I'm going to need to pull out my fat quarters to see if I have a match for a few of them. At least I have plenty of white and wow fabric.

Teriamn, I am doing that one too. It is definitely not my favorite and I did it with my stash too.

You are right about that! Only word that beats current is done or finished.

well, I’m having an unexpected lunch with 2 of my sisters, so I think I will give it to the one who just moved. I might not see her again for a while and she turned 77 in May. I may keep this boom quilt for myself. I’m liking the blue I chose. And it has a soft light fleece backing that I think she will like.

You know how to make a sister happy. Enjoy your lunch!
