I’m doing it too but am cutting as I go since I’m using my Civil War stash. It will be a bit scrappy but I’m trying to stay true to the colors suggested. I’ve got the first 15 blocks done but know I won’t be able to keep up with her pace. Work drastically cuts into my sewing time! Your blocks look great!

Yours look great, Wildyard! I like the new orange you found. It makes a good contrast.

Julie, I tried to go all Civil War fabs too... but so many of my pieces weren't big enough. So I had to find a few that were just compatible with CW fabs. And I had to shop for my background fabric. I didn't have 3.5 yds of any neutral I liked for this quilt. Please show us your blocks from the first week.

I'm thinking of skipping the wide red border. I don't need the quilt to be quite that huge.

Sewbizgirl, I bet you have an amazing stash...your BOW is going to be great with the colors you’ve shown. I am in awe of the projects you fit into your schedule...including keeping your DH fed. I have finally asked mine to pick at least one or two nights a week to cook dinner. Half the trouble is coming up with new ideas of what to make...

Wildyard, your project seems to be coming together quickly too.

Thanks, jmoore. One thing hubby can cook better than me is an omelet. He makes some mean omelets! Sometimes that's what we have for dinner.

wildyard

Yes I got week 2 yesterday. Perhaps pop her a note on the facebook page asking her to send it?
