Good Morning Everyone! Thanks for the early start DottyD. I am so looking forward to this. I love the skipping around with the block numbers. That will make it so much more interesting at the finale. Company is in town for the start of Spring Break this weekend so I can't start till Monday. It's just so great to see them. I have my fabrics all ready to go! Love your blocks DottyD, the colors are awesome.

Dotty, it is so inspiring to see your finished blocks. They look beautiful! I think that's really going to add incentive for people to finish theirs.
I received notice that my book might be delivered today; we'll see.

Beautiful blocks, Dotty.... all your fabrics are so pretty. I plan on making mine in order because of the layout I designed....I want to assemble as I go so I won’t be working on the same blocks for the most part but I’ll still share if that is ok.

Dotty, your blocks look wonderful! Thank you for posting them all. I like that you gave us a 4-week plan to work from.
Here are my week 1 blocks. The A-5 block - Buckeye Beauty - called for medium green and beige. I’m using khaki in place of green. The Super Bloom collection doesn’t have green in it. I’ll have to see if I like khaki in its place.

I did my shopping today as planed. I have never in my life spent so much money on one quilt. I am guessing that I will have plenty of leftovers to make a companion quilt or two. Am I justifying or just shopping ahead? I took my 12 year-old grandson with me as my color consultant. He did a good job at picking our colors that not only were of the right hue and tone. I would take him again. He has good instincts and we had good conversations about decision making, where you start and why some colors did not fit well with others. Photos tomorrow when I can get my color choices out into natural light. Looking forward to getting started.
