I just received my blocks from Lucinda (kwiltkrazy) today. She made me three wonderful blocks! I love the colors and the wonky owl block is so cute. The colors are perfect for my quilt. Thank you Lucinda! I love them!

So glad you got them, and that you like them. I really had a lot of fun designing them. Boy, I love working with batiks, and curved piecing.

quiltingnonie 07-24-2010 03:14 PM

kwiltkrazy: WOW that curved star is stunning, and a perfect fit with batiks. LOVE IT!

kwiltkrazy 07-24-2010 03:28 PM

Thank you, I really like the way batiks really show something off.

Amazing blocks kwiltkrazy! :)

dettonlisas 07-24-2010 08:16 PM

Those are amazing! I have NO idea how you did those curved pieces an still have the block lay flat!

kwiltkrazy 07-24-2010 09:37 PM

Its all in the cutting and the piecing.lol

I learned it from Ricky Tims, wonky caveman quilting, it was on Simply quilts. I just love to do it. Once you get the hang of it, it's easy, I have had a lot of throw away blocks. The amazing thing is there are no pins involved. Which I love.

Sulubug, I absolutely love your log cabin block, wow you are going to have a goregeous quilt from your blocks I've seen. Would there be a chance of you posting a group shot?

This is the block I got from crj and as you can see I've sewn it into a quilt top. The rest of the blocks have been swapped to me over the past few months and I thank everyone who made a block, plus I added a couple of my own. Moosegirl

Aully,

Well, your blocks are officially on their way. I thought I would have to fill out a form to send them to Canada, but the man at the post office said "no" when I asked. Hope they arrive safe and sound.
