OMG...that's AWESOME!!! I'm giggling SO hard right now!!! I love how they're REALLY REALLY pink & blotchy too. If they were red & blotchy that would be my skin in the sun!

So...we're up to four now, right? So...is five planned, done, or being creatively called?

BTW...you're killing me on the stress, I'm just going to find matching solid marbles or something and cut them to size because there's no way I'm going to be able to keep pace with ya'll on talent.

I think I should come up there for a weeks vacation & get quilting lessons!!!

OK..I will tell you what I do..I go through books, coloring books, embroidery patterns...then trace and change to what I want it to be. Sometimes I do my own, but most of these are someone elses...with a few changes.

Block 5 is laying here on the table, about 1/2 done. I might toss it out and do something different though. Just remember mine is funky and out of sorts...not the normal farm...hmmmm sounds like the one I live on!

OMG...that's an AMAZING idea, I never thought about that! Of course I still don't know how to applique. So you're getting solid blocks :p

OOoooh so will it be more than 5 blocks? Or are you doing the 12" blocks? Now I'm dying to know what 5 is!

I GOTTA go to bed. You guys have my mind swimming and it's never going to shut down to go to sleep. 5am is going to come WAY WAY too early.

Nite nite!

OMG! I thought it was a player in your family. Never imagined it was you. So cool.
My youngest son was a football player in high school. Hubby and I followed him around all four years. We have very fond memories of those times.
Hugs,

That's actually me klarina. I played women's professional football. Obviously at 6'1", xxx lbs - I played on the O-line (tackle & guard). Full contact, NFL rules...travel, superbowl, the whole 9 yards! Some of the best times of my life and one of my favorite pics...I'll have to find some others for ya'll.
