Just two blocks done. Trying to do it totally scrappy

But my question is do we want to keep these all on one thread or how are we going to do this?

Beautiful! :) I love your colors. :)

That is a good question, what does everyone think?

Beautiful blocks. I'm not participating, but I like having just one place to go to find all the blocks. How is the URR thing working? Is it a swap or is everyone just doing the same blocks in their own colors to keep?

Great job, Melissa. I like your scrappy look. I haven't started mine yet. Maybe we should start an URR thread and all post pics of our progress there. Could title it URR Progress Pics or something like that.

Everyone is just making it to keep. I dont know if all of us are using Eleanor Burns' pattern but I know several are.

I started to put mine on your thread but decided better find out what everyone wanted to do first.

It's not a swap. We are all just doing our own blocks and quilts using the internet for research and/or the quilt books by Eleanor Burns and Barbara Brackman. It's a very interesting subject. I'm really enjoying my research about quilts and slavery.

Thank you Cissy, I think that sounds like a good idea, what do you think Shadow?

I love your blocks Melissa. The scrappy look is gonna make a great looking quilt. Will want to watch everyone's progress on this one.


This quilt is on my to do list. Probably when I retire I might find time :lol: :lol:

I think they should all be in one place too. :) Then everyone can make one stop to see everyone's progress. :)

I really like your colors! can't wait to see more.

Got the book but no fabric yet. I think one thread would be good too.

Love your blocks. Can't wait to see some more, and when it is done.

Great idea Loretta, thank you. :) Is there any way to move the pictures that are on separate threads to the gallery? Don't want to post them again and have duplicates up. :)

Hey, I really like the scrappy look. Gosh I should change my name on here to scrappy. LOL.......

beautiful work as usual, mgshaw! love your color choices and fantastic piecing. I look forward to seeing the progression!!! Thanks for sharing.

Melissa just beautiful!! You're colors are fantastic. You always do such wonderful work!
I can't wait to see all the URR quilts, you all are soo talented! I think one thread would be a wonderful thing too!

Thanks everyone!!! Loretta started a thread; URR Gallery , so everyone's pictures will be on there now.

COOL

:thumbup:

ooh I like your blocks!!

I LOVE LOVE your colors, woman!! I knew I should have had you pick out my CW fabrics!! :D

Oh Pooey Karla!!!! You picked out Gorgeous fabrics all by yourself!!!!!! So you ready to start on the beauty yet?

Nahhhhhh, nobody can have the name Scrappy cuz it is mine! :mrgreen:

Melissa, I LOVE Scrappy, as I say every 3 words. What I want to know is
why everything you do is absolutly fabulous?
Color selection is stunning, points meet, intersections are flawless----SIGH---I see a lot of that here.
I think it is called T*A*L*E*N*T.

I am hanging around so some will jump on me. I am getting very impatient...... :)

Riley, I've seen your quilts on your webshots so you cant fool me! You invented the word TALENT!!!!

NO NO NO NO NO, Melissa Hon! No talent here! Waiting on some to leap off this screen & latch on tight from some of you Ladies!

That misconception you have of my talents is all that swelled up brain boils you developed from baby sitting that Grancutie!!! :mrgreen: But thanks for the thought!
