I'm working on mine tonight. I contacted my partner, but haven't heard back from her yet.

I was working on something for my DQ but it keeps turning out not the way I planned it.....so I will have to do something different. :( Was really hopeful but sometimes that happens. Is everyone doing the theme? I've not been in it for a little while and I've actually only done this twice. Both times were fun and I loved the quilts that I got. :) I'll have to check out the LQS when it opens back up. Not open on Mondays. :( I'll have to see if she has any black and white.

Hugs and Nighty Night. :)

The black and white theme has been on my list of things to do for a while and have been gathering black and white prints for a while. I used red to do the popping, and happened to find some left from a Hallowe'en costume years ago. Soooo! Finished the doll quilt last night and am just waiting for cjaye44 to contact me so I can finish the label. It will probably take me longer to get it ready for mailing than making it!

Thanks Chele for getting me in after deadline...And Thank you Dragonfly Nana for taking on two partners. I was without electric or water (wells) for a wk in both NY and RI hses and had no computer, but more annoying was NO SEWING MACHINE...Tried keeping myself busy by cutting fabric for future Dresden Plate and utilizing my "Go". But doesn't help that all my scraps are shoved into a rubbermaid bin full of wrinkles...I needed an iron....FRUSTRATING!!!!!
Well I'm back in business and Thanks to above for allowing me to join in late.

Seriously, your DH said where's the pop??? I'd pop him right in the nose! Is he a member of the quilt police?

Finished the little quilt today! It should be in the post to Grammy6 tomorrow.

A few pages back I said I wasn't going to do the black and white theme, but I relented when I strolled into a shop and found a couple of FQs that went perfectly with some material I already had. After that the little quilt just about designed itself. Not my usual style at all, which is half the fun, isn't it?

Looking forward to seeing the pictures once they start going up here...
