    Anael and oksewglad - thanks for sharing your lovely quilts. Anael, those people at the day care are so fortunate to have you making all these beautiful quilts for their nap time. Oksewglad - I'm afraid I would not have the patience for those tiny quilt blocks. They are great!

    Oh thanks I get in an "I don't know what to sew mood" and go to my teeny scrap bins and start mindlessly sewing so I have several small blocks ready to make into a quick small quilt. The navy one was not quick--I had initially set it with navy and gold 4P's, but it was way too busy. And because I spent a lot of time on the crumb blocks I decided to "rip it rip it" and replace with the plain block and yes I am happier with it. Believe it or not this is a stress reliever for me to off set the frustrations I still have with PP'ing.

    Anael .. that is absolutely splendid! The white and bright yellow/gold is very effective with the crumb blocks. Well Done!!

    OKSGlad ... another pair of great minis! I was thinking today, I wonder what happened with those little blocks that OK showed us recently, and then tonight here they are! The food bank should fare well with them in their auction!

    What a nice trip down memory lane to see everyone's blocks again.
    As well as Anael's quilts for the Day Centre and OKs minis!

    I struggled choosing the fabrics for these last night.
    As I worked on them, I almost scrapped them, to start again.
    Now tonight, I'm liking them ... go figure!

    Oh those look so nice! The yellow/tan draws you in and then the blue takes you to the sashing. Blue and yellow is one of my fav color combos too.

    Oooo those are just great! I like your colors. When ya are through w/the quilt these blocks will draw the eye & then be nice & restful. I'm not sure I'm makin' since but that is my thought process when lookin' at 'em.

    Another great job, QE. Looks like the ponies are ready to run down the road, very dimensional. I love, love that red fabric behind your blocks!

    QE--I agree with the others that these are a couple of great blocks! Keep it up! I did like you did with your FW quilt...chose fabrics for several blocks at a time, then I even cut several so then I could just sew!

    Oh such fun to see these blocks again! Mine are still waiting in the two drawers (one for my pony fabric PC blocks, one for the "other" fabric PC blocks). Gotta finish the Easy Street quilt and get that together before I get back to the PC blocks. Don't want to box up another set of blocks! I'll get there one of these days!
