Hey, all. I have been out of town with a sister who has breast cancer so I'm running behind in posting my blocks.
Hubby has been opening my mail and then not putting it in the same place everytime. Found some in my office and some in my sewing room and on the kitchen table. So if you've sent me a block and I don't post it today I will as soon as I get the house straight and find it.
So far I've found
One block from Canada with no return address and no note inside.
block from Montanablu and Nancia
All are lovely. And a F8 from mistiliz.

donnad, i'm so sorry to hear about your sister. as a breast cancer survivor, one of 3 in my family, this is a disease that hits close to my heart! i hope for the best, and wish you strength, faith and hope.

Shaysmema sent me a nice block today. Soon there will be enough blocks to put together a couple of quilts. The borders are bought and I am excited to see the quilts come together. I have learned so much from putting together blocks with fabrics I would have never picked. I will be branching out of my 19th century mode and 30's flour sack prints into a moderistic view. My children and grandchildren will appreciate it.

I made a road to tennessee for shaysmema. took me allll day. first time for that block. I loved this experience; teaching myself new blocks, playing with someone elses fabric, and trying to come up with colors to match that fabric out of my small stash. The biggest problem I've encountered is trying to find a quality black fabric. the fat quarter I purchased was nearly see thru. tossed it in the trash. guess I will have to shop. well, a girls gotta do what a girls gotta do. smile
