Well those are fabulous fabrics! I really like the Kansas fabric! Is that from this years state shop hops? Would love to get my hands on some! That is my families home state. :)

Mama, that is lovely fabric. What are you making for your center?

It was for the shop hop back in 2009, I believe. I bought 5 yards and then never did anything with it - so I figure I can use it in my center and send some along for my team members to incorporate.

I found this pin on Pinterest: http://pinterest.com/pin/243898136042838241/

I drew it out in EQ and it should be 24" square when I finish. I believe the pattern is called "All Hallows"

I did that block for my quilt for quilters center. I loved it. You will too Kelly. I found the pattern on mc calls quilting. tons of free patterns there also. I havent decided on my fabrics yet. best get on it!

I have it narrowed down to four block patterns now just need to choose one. I can then move on to picking out the fabrics. Thank goodness we have until Oct 1st.

Haha, that's exactly what I was thinking. Initially when all the discussion was going on I thought "Yikes" do I need that ready in the next couple of weeks? Sure was a relief when I remembered the rules said October.:D

Oh Me Oh My - I have been stressing to get my block and I have until October???? I thought that was when the first rows needed to be done and sent. Whew - how do you spell relief???
I did make a paperpieced block but I wasn't happy with it ... so now I can relax a bit!

Sorry everyone... I wasn't trying to rush you! I start student teaching at the end of August and so I've got between now and then to get the "must do's" done... I want to make sure that I can keep up if things get a little overwhelming at the beginning of the semester. I'm a planner and a prepper - if I can have a plan, a back up, and a back up back up then I'm ok and I can sleep at night. I've got my center about 85% together - by tomorrow night I'll have a picture to show!

very pretty MamaH, I am still picking and choosing fabric..
