"I appreciate you very much."

Well, thank you, but I can't take credit for coming up with this. I'm just passing on what someone else helped me with. I've learned a whole lot by listening to other people's tips and suggestions. Just quilters helping quilters!

Love to share those tips as well. You Tube has become a great resource for myself. I have Mary Sue Collins book on minatures. That is where I learned a whole lot on piecing more accurate and watching how to do those seams. Tune into The Quilt Show, they have some freebies. You just have to subscribe which is free unless you want to watch the current ones. I find the tid bits they have on there are very helpful, and free, you can beat it. Right now they have Ricky Timms show this month which has some wonderful information on quilting and binding. Freebie!

Very nice blocks. My favorite is your "Nine in Four". Love that dark blue fabric with the white - is it flowers or maybe snowflakes? Very pretty.

Everyone - Thank you for your kind comments :o I tried "thinking outside the box" when I grabbed the dark blue fabric "thinking" it could perhaps be the end result of fire crackers exploding in the night sky (???) Anyway, I have really enjoyed going through my stash and trying to blend with the Americana print and the other American flag print . If time permits, I have another larger print that has "stars & stripes" that I also want to make up. :rolleyes:
