Yaya good luck with your surgery! Do not overdue it and take time for you!

I received F8s from QuilterMomma & buslady. The funniest thing is I was going to send out the exact same fabric as QuilterMomma did as orange is MY favorite color lol How funny! I already have an idea in mind for your daughter.

Huge Hugs

My first three grown-up blocks
 

I received these wonderful blocks from:
Buddy'sMom, Yosamitesa, and Moonrise.
They should be in that order.

Thank you soooo much, I love them!

Abby's Mom those are beautiful and look AMAZING together!!!

Wow, those DO look good together! :thumbup:

Lovely block, Yosa! :thumbup:

Received a gorgeous grown-up block from LovingIsabella today, along with the F8 and the embroidery stuff we talked about. Will post a photo ASAP. :)

Rec'd F8's from: buslady, LovingIzabella, MdmSew'n'Sew, amd QuilterMomma.

And thank you so much moonrise and Yosamiesa for your fabulous blocks. :) I am going to wait until I have 5 blocks and then will post pix.

Goldendog55, BusLady, and LovingIzabella all have grown-up blocks going out this morning. :)

I had a ball with Goldendog55's fabric. You said bright, so that's what you got! LOL! :D

I did a triple-take when I saw BusLady's fabric. Where had I seen it before?? It was SO familiar! OH!!!! The curtain in my guest bathroom is made from that same fabric, only I have the pink version! How cool is that! :D

And LovingIzabella's fabric told me exactly what she wanted to be when she grew up. I hope you like what I did with it. It was a fun coincidence that I just couldn't pass up! :)

Pics are in my Photobucket album if anyone wants to peek (link in sig line), but if you don't have your block from me yet, don't go clicking or it'll spoil the surprise! ;)

Here's the lovely block LovingIzabella made for me (below)! Isn't it pretty? :thumbup:

Got my F8 from LovingIzabella yesterday. I have blocks done for Yosamitesa, Moonrise, Wanda Lou, NDQuilts and Veronika. I am hoping I can get them in the envelopes and mailed today. If not, I am going out of town this evening and will get them done in the hotel tonight and mailed tomorrow. So far all of the blocks are beautiful. I hope mine live up to expectations and work well with the others. Veronikas block gave me a run for my money!! Found the perfect match of fabric but had exactly 4-6" squares of it. I miss cut, didn't see it until way into the block. So had to redesign the block, of course the cut was too small, not to big. Go figure! LOL. Then I miscalculated and the block was 15", so I tore it all apart and trimmed back and whalla! And I like it. I hope Veronika does! Wandas fabric really got me going! I have always wanted to do a black and white quilt, and I have wanted to work a ying yang block up at some point. I sort of combined the two for this block. Not really a ying yang, but that is what it reminds me of. Moonrise, I loved your fabric. I tried to stay with the vintage feel of the fabric, wasn't sure about adding too much color, I hope it is not too bland for you. Naomi, your block was fun, I really liked your fabric and wanted it to be center stage. I hope I accomplished this. Yosamitesa, have you ever found just the right fabric for a project and couldn't use it for some reason? That is what happened. It was in a bag of fabric I purchased at a resale shop. There was a mix of stuff in the bag, but this particular piece was not up to my standards for a quilt, just too thin. Anyway, once I saw that piece, I just couldn't find anything that I liked as much. Then I found the piece I used. I hope you like it as much as I do.
This is soooo sew much fun!
