Wow! I love this one too. You moving really quickly on these blocks. I can't wait to see them all put together! LOVE THEM!

Wow!! I can see why the kit would be expensive--what planning it took to get everything right. And what a job to put it together. It's going to be in that "favorite quilt I've ever seen" category for me. :D

well, tried to re-post pic in my reply so I could "tiptoe thru the garden",...well, a tiny-tim I ain't! (you know, that old song, tiptoe thru the tulips?..yeah, corny :) )
anyways, I should have been collecting more florals all along, since i love them so much, but my family always gave me such grief over it...playfully, but nonetheless, they think I have been flower-crazed in the past. SO???? I'd rather be looking down at them, than UP??? :wink:

Thank you, you are all so very sweet. I'm glad you like them. I'm getting kind of prejudiced about them my self. I can't believe that I'm so tired over doing these. I went to sleep without sleeping pills for the past two days. That in it's self is a miracle for me. My dh said I was really out of it last night. I didn't even wake up when he left for work and slept until almost 10:00 today. Think I'll have to slow down some. I have church tomorrow and doubt I'll get one done today since I haven't even started on # 10, it's a sunflower block.

So pretty. I like how the dark side fades into the light.

Thanks I like that too. It's hard to tell that on my chrysanthemum but it's like that too with 4 layers.

conblond, if you aren't feeling up to par, please do slow down. I have stuff that makes me really slow. I have been cutting out a quilt top all week. I can only do so much at a time and then have to switch gears. If I'm having an off day, I don't get much done in there.
We all love seeing everybody's work, and we try to cheer each other on, but don't feel you have to keep up. We'll be here, when we see your thread has another reply. I don't blame you for becoming biased about this one...I do believe i'd have to put up a fuss if family were eyeing it. Nope, stand in line, this ones mine, is what I would say. :wink:

I'm slowing down for the night and most of tomorrow. I have to go out to pick up some s eam-a-steam after church. My friend has a box of it so I can get it for $4.99 a yard. She wants to give me a discount but I hate to do that to her. I need a bunch of it.

Well here is my block 10 Sunflower...I don't like the shading once again on the leaves. OH WELL it will do. Good night!
