Red, how are the winter blocks coming?

Mine went in the mail yesterday. They should arrive Friday.
Sure wish I had more time to do more sets.

Hi all,
Wow I went through all the posted pictures. There are some beautiful blocks in this swap with fantastic variety. I look forward to putting this quilt together. .

Here is five of my sets I'm still trying to finish the 6th set I had started a winter tree scene that has been fighting me every step of the way. . So I'm debating giving up or keeping going. Either way this is all going in the mail by the end of the week. I took our winter holiday theme to heart and even made a chanukah block and a winter block if I'm able to get the one I started right. . As you can see I really went for the blues.

Billi, very nice blocks. Don't you just hate when it seems like the blocks your working on just won't cooperate. My second set was like that and I truly wondered if they were meant to be. But, I did get them finished. And was so glad I preserved. I loved the fabric I was working with. I always have a problem with directional fabric. But, it was just so darn cute. Then, of course, I picked the wrong block pattern to make. But, in the end, I made it work. I wish you luck on your block.

Red, how are you doing? Is your knee doing better? Anymore mysterious lights in the sky? I think the Red Moon is almost upon us, isn't it. I hope we have clear weather. I'd really like to see it. I enjoyed seeing the superbright moon last fall/winter. It really was beautiful.

Hey Dragonfly Nana, how are you doing? Did you finish up your round robins? I would love to see your finished quilt tops.

I have a support on it so I can put my garden to bed for the winter. I dug two huge stands of irises and cleaned up the corms to replant them. They didn't bloom at all this year because of overcrowding , so I had to do it. Pain meds are a wonderful thing! LOL! By the way... No more lights in the mountains. LOL...

Hi sweetwater!
Your darling blocks made it here today! I can't believe you hand stitched those snowmen! Wow! You are so sweet.

Billi! How nice those are! You are an artist.

Thank you all I'm pretty happy with them I would never say artist (thanks red you made my day) but I like them. Well I gave up on the winter tress it just is not going to happen so I went rummaging through my stash and found the deer and moose print it's still a very winter with just a touch of Christmas feel to it. My blocks finished at one set at 6.5 one set at 9.5 one at 9.5x12.5 and the other three at 12.5
I'm getting them all labeled today and they will be in the mail by tomorrow. .


Red in my other swaps I have just sent cash to cover return postage is that good for you? Or do you prefer my return envelope to be stamped also?
