Great idea Mary, I'll get working on one too.

I can always make either a bigger one for her bed or 2 lap quilts for the rocking chair she uses and the couch both and maybe she will need to take for chemo treatments when it get colder here in Iowa. I will take all that anyone wants to send and make her something special, how could it not be anything else but special with such special people making blocks? Thank you again! Lori

I would love to make one but won't if it is not needed. Let me know if you need another block.

Faye, we don't actually have a count, so please add one!

Here's mine. As I mentioned on the SP thread, I had a big stinking whoops moment. I decided to do a quilted design on my embroidery machine and despite very careful clipping to keep the loose fabric out of the way, a corner snuck under there and got quilted into the back! In the middle, of course. :oops: I wasn't going to take it apart because the front has several 1" 9 patch blocks, which were a real PITA, so I snipped it out and where the batting showed a bit, I used a magic marker. *sigh* Anyway, here it is ...

Maureen, beautiful!!!

Finally, It is chilly, rainy and time for some Chili. It's October!!!

Beautiful block! And HOLY MACKEREL! I didn't realize the last photo was your chili. I thought it was some sort of embellishment resembling ... well, never mind. WHEW!!! :lol:
