    I have looked over everyones photos and WOW WOW WOW you are all making gorgeous quilts, and very innovative too, making your own designs.

    I have laid all mine out as I have done the four corners, they are oversized but I am leaving them that way till I get the sashings on and then cutting them to size then. I too will have to get creative as I will not have enough blocks to go round the edge, I have around 8 or 9 to make still so I think another 4 of my own design will be enough.

    AAAHhhhhhhhhhhhhhh...Elle, its gorgeous! Mouthwatering gorgeous my dear! The different color corners were an inspired idea and fit it perfectly. I bet that fabric you ordered for the sashings are make this baby even better- and I really don't know how that is possible!

    All your blocks are 10" aren't they...the center and your outside border?

    OoLaLa! That is so pretty & feminine! I can't wait to see the finished top with your designs added to it. Then I will have to make that trip to meet you and bring an extra bag to slip her into! :lol:

    OMG donīt you start Kathy, I have Terri and Patti and Ducky to cope with. Going to ave to tie all my quilts to the beds. and stick them to the walls.

    Seriously thanks for the comments. NO fabric yet not expected till the end of next week, its called Cranberry Crush so I hope to heck it goes, soemtimes the colourings are not so hot on screen, but there just areīnt any batiks to be found at my LQS. I bet some of you gals have bigger stashes than my LQS. LOL

    i am winging it at the moment, I have measured nothing except block sizes which are 10" but could get cut so they all fit better. i just laid them out and when I put the outer ones on I will put a biggger sashing in between (I think). when I finish
    AOTH, I must MUST get back to DJ

    Viola you can get this book at Amazon. Welcome to the group.

    If you go to the first page on this topic you can get the schedule we are all working on. Each block has its own thread.

    You could stash all your quilts in your caravan. Didn't you say that it wasn't at your home, but rather off-site somewhere? "Course, the girls would probably hog-tie you until you told them where the caravan was so they could see those beauties!!! :-)

    Ruby - Welcome to the "club"!!! We are so glad to have you!. All these blocks that are being posted are scrumptions!!! Some of our ladies have jumped the gun so much that they are nearly finished with their tops. Never fear - I am slowly plugging alons with the rest of the group. Tomorrow begins Week #5. You can work at your own pace & no one will thing anything about where you are in the schedule. Heck, you can throw the schedule out the window if you want. It doesn't matter. The whole point in this is that we all are having so much fun working on the quilt together!
