I think I'm going to have to sit this boom out, so much going on. I'm retiring in June and getting married in August! I'll be sure to lurk and follow along with the beautiful blocks and the happenings in your lives. Hopefully I'll be back for Boom 30

What a lot going on! Congratulations on both the retirement and wedding. Make sure to come back for Boom 30!

I sent my info via email and want to let you all know I am so glad to return! I am especially happy to have some of the same folks who were in Pumpkin Boom 28. I would like to join the 3 month this time.

Thanks to all the Pumpkins Boom 28 who contributed blocks. The local Refugee Center found a Ukranian family right away and were really appreciative for all the anonymous quilters!

Great quilt Duckling and all you Pumpkins!!

Welcome back, Lstew2212!
Duck, what a beautiful quilt. You did a great job finishing it! I'll put your pic in the "finished quilts" album at Imgbb Boom 28.

Hi! signed up for both groups 2 months and 3 months. annaquilts

Hi all, is there a theme or do we just choose fabrics of our liking?
Do we request certain colors or not a certain color?

You decide what kind of quilt you want. It is easier to design a block if you know the planned quilt destination or color needs. Pick out your fabric to send to everyone and if you have specific needs like "all yellow" or "all black" so you end up with two-colored blocks, let everyone know in the note you send with your F8 fabric. In the last boom I sent a different fabric to everyone to make a quilt for my eldest granddaughter who prefers dark jungle colors. I included bright colors in the F8 because the jungle is loaded with a variety of colors. I told everyone what I plan on doing with the blocks and then cut the Boomers loose to do whatever their creative desires wanted. I had no color requests or theme requests. I got a bunch of wonderful jungle blocks.

Take a look at the pictures Sewbizgirl has posted to get an idea of the beautiful blocks the boomers have made. Her signature line has the link.

BOOM 29 is shaping up to be an amazing boom, as usual. I will be lurking this time around as I have yet to put any of my boom blocks into a finished quilt.

Thanks for that info, ibex.
I just have a couple of colors I don't like, that's why I asked. But sometimes I say that and then I see a quilt with colors I don't especially like and end up loving what I see! :)
