MaryAnna.
Sure come on along! We are going on our own, no tour so it will be an adventure for sure.

I loved your BOM. That is truly gorgeous fabric. I will have to save my Euros in case I come across something similar there. We'll have to live on ketchup soup for the next month so I can have Euros for fabric! :)

Off to research quilt shops in Paris!

RoseofSharon, good luck. I'm looking forward to seeing your results.

Oh do have a wonderful time in Paris! woot! I have not gotten the shamrock under my belt! I just cannot seem to wrap my sewing machine around it LOL I did go ahead and do the hearts and started the shamrocks today. They seem simple compared to the snowflakes!

I will look forward to hearing all about your adventures in Paris.. Have fun.

Woot! well I have struggled and ripped out and gave up on the snowflake... went ahead and made February and March blocks.... But... I was not giving up on Janurary, sooooooo I looked over the pattern directions and still felt it just is too small to work with lol.. so I decided to cut the blues lt, and dk but not cut them twice diagonally. Doing so, I sewed the blues together right sides together down the center of the triangle and then cut the 1/4" walla I had the shape and sewn.. then sewed it to the white triangle. Wow, am I happy to say I have ONE made :) and it is just fine in my eyes.. (beginner here) Here is a picture of it!

Awesome Sharon! Your pinwheel is beautiful.

Somehow, I started on the hearts. Just need to sew the left side to the right side, then sash them and that row will be done. I'll post a picture when I finish them.

Here's what I have so far. I want to make some more hearts, then play with the fabrics to see which ones I want duplicates of.

I love how you made your hearts with other than red fabrics! Gives me ideas for some of the other blocks! :D
