Okay, I am not really sure what it is called, but can find out later tonight. It is drafted from a picture in an old book I have. It is usually pieced with the center in 4 parts of the background fabric, but I changed my construction cause I absolutely wanted to highlight the print in the f8 I recieved. Sew glad you all like it. It did require incomplete seams that got completed later.....this is the one I did in boom 9.

Nice block alikat 110. I have been busy and not done any sewing the last two weeks but things are looking good for next week.I am not going anywhere and will get a bunch more done.

Okay...here is picture of the book I found my block in and of the block I drafted into a 12" block. The book gives absolutely no direction on construction......love graph paper!!!!

My overseas blocks went out yesterday. I hope to finish several more this weekend.

Did we lose Granny? I havent seen any mention of her lately?

Here's an update on my blocks. If you don't see yours here, please let me know.

Well, she has never participated in this thread. I requested that April reach out to her, but assuming she has not had success..... I have just decided to write that block off....

Alikat, Im not in this swap but wanted to tell you what a beautiful block you made. Ive seen that block only HUGH and never could figure out how to reduce it down from a full size spread to a 12" block. Its call Labyrith or something like that and have seen the full size pattern for sale in Keepsake Quilting magazine. IF you have the block figured out and wouldnt mind sharing I would love to know how you did it!! Im not good at "making" patterns at all...if its not written out word for word, inch by inch Im not gonna complete it! LOL Its beautiful!!!

How bout I do a tutorial on it this weekend?

That would be great!! Im not good with math and trying to "reduce" or increase sizes for blocks. I think a lot of people would love to see the tutorial!!

Received two more blocks this week. Thanks Old_Rosebud and nannakathy55

Since I have constructed it 2 different ways, I will demonstrate both...probably separate tutorials sew that you can pick you favorite way to do it. I am very flattered over the attention it is getting. Gonna make it my new avatar!!!!

Here are the 3 blocks I received this past week, from Quiltaddiction, Gaijin and Abby's mom.

Thank you ladies, I love them, will be working on the blocks for this group the first weekend in October. Have a lot of doctor appointments for me and mom over the next 3 weeks.

Okay...tutorial for the interlocked squares with fussy cut center is posted. I am working on. Paper pieced tutorial.....hope you guys enjoy.

Createfourpaws...you are getting beautiful blocks....

Paper peicing tutorial for interlocked squares is now completed as well. Here is pic of block completed...

Alikat thanks for posting a tute for the block, nicely done.
Abby's mom got your blocks yesterday. Thank you so much for making me 2. I can do that little 4 patch no problem, love it, made me giggle your little note[ATTACH=CONFIG]436133[/ATTACH][ATTACH=CONFIG]436135[/ATTACH]Just so all of you know, Joan ran out of my red but sent me the rest of the block and white for me to make the little 4 patch for another block. You gotta' love that for sure.
The maia group is done so thought I'd show you a pic of my quilt. They did their squares with just the black added. Ordered some varigated thread in the pink and gold colors that I'm waiting on to quilt it. I think it turned out pretty nice. [ATTACH=CONFIG]436153[/ATTACH]

Turned out beautiful!

Gaijin

Thanks Gaijin, it's so different colors than what I usually do, but I really like the way it turned out. I'm sure one of my kids or grandkids will grab it when they're here next month. Might make them wait for awhile so I can enjoy it for just a tad:)

I am sending out two from this group today Pinklady and Troy26. I have three left to go that I have the F8's for. I plan to have all blocks done for both of my groups by next Monday.

Jaba - the black really makes the colors stand out! Looks good.

Jaydee, your grownup is in the mailbox. I am officially complete with the Electra group.

Quiltaddiction received your block today, thank you so much. Getting excited to put this one together also. Just have to receive from jaydee, oldcatlady,troy26 and don't know about grammy1231 or debfaye. [ATTACH=CONFIG]436413[/ATTACH]

Jaba....you still need one from me...I haven't started yours yet. I will be working on them this weekend.

Just missed your name on my list. Looking forward to receiving it.

just making sure you didn't mark me as returning yours when I know I hadn't. Good deal.

I am sending grownups to Mollymuchkin Rose Irish and Jadee3 that is everyone I received a F8 from. Only one I haven't received from Grammy1231? Thank you all for swapping. :)

Still waiting for the same ones to come back. I know that there is still 6-7 weeks left, just doing an update. Would appreciate them soon if all of you have some time.

jaba..mine are all done, squared up and ready to seal and send...will be done this week!

My great grand daughter will be here in about a month and this quilt is for her (red/white bedr), just thought it would be nice if I could give it to her instead of sending it.

Update: Grownups no home yet: createfourpaws, Gaijin, Grammy1231, jaydee, missgigglewings, mollymunchkin, oldcatlady, Pink Lady, Troy26.

All my blocks have been completed and sent out as of September 9. If you don't have your grownup, please let me know.
