Anael...I love your Fairyland quilts. When I move, I'll give you my new address to send me one of them...:o

You should! I'm not promising I'll send one of the Fairyland quilts though :D

Lol....worth a try to get my hands on one of your fairyland quilts. Dang...

Come on over....hopefully, there will be one left for you...:shock:

OMGosh....in the shed, I found a tote filled with tax returns dated in the 70's & 80's for both of us. Hilarious! We both pulled out our very first W2 ever received then shredded the rest. I was 14 years old and I earned $374. Lol... Please tell me I'm not the only one who saved this stuff beyond the destroy date. Now, need to make sure our tax returns are never stored in an unsecured location again. Geesh...

I am a saver, too. Takes up a lot of space, space that could be used for fabric.

Thanks for the good comments. I'm so in love with this pattern. Working on it everyday. I am hoping my pile goes down. May have to make 2 or 3 quilts.
Teen, love your fuzzy squares. Very nice. And the applique on the center block.

Thank you! I'm loving the HB pattern. And I loved making GTSB, as you are finding the same. You definitely won't get bored with a Kingwell pattern. I'll likely make GTSB again but there are so many of her patterns to do....lol.. Looking forward to seeing more of your work, sewingitalltogether!

I said I'm not promising...........I didn't say I won't do it nor did I say I will :) :)

I thought I was keeping stuff but not that long. I learned to throw stuff away. I don't like Molly Maid duties but I don't like clutter either.

I won't make a second GBST any time soon again. I'm working on my second (and 3rd but you didn't hear that!!!!) GW, still need to finish BD and start a few other Kingwells.

Finished the corner block. Can't remember the name. And the Churn Dash block. Got the background ready for the Orange Peel but haven't decided what colors to make the applique shapes. I hoping to prep the flower centers and petals on the flower panr. Hey, I found these great green Flying Geese strips in my scrap box. I could add some sashing to make a 12" block ? ? They were from a quilt that wanted me to sew these around every block on the quilt. I made 3 and decided that was enough. Put a solid fabric in the sashing instead.
It's freezing cold again. All schools cancelled second day. Buses can't get down the icy roads.

Love your blocks Gail. You can do whatever you want, it's your quilt.

It's freezing cold here too. I was going to visit a friend this afternoon but I cancelled. It's too cold to bike almost an hour just for a cup of coffee. Tomorrow it will be better they say.

No, I'm too old to even get on a bike. Last time I was on a bike I flipped over the front, landed on a rock! Had stitches in my forehead and broke or crushed my elbow. And we were in another country, that wouldn't take my insurance. Dr. and hospital wanted cash only. No credit cards. But an hour on a bike in the winter doesn't sound like a great afternoon.
I will have to look at those Flying Geese strips on my design wall for awhile before I decide.
