Here's the table runner I was b*$^&%*(# and moaning about ripping out all the FMQ from. I do like it now! It's for my middle son and his family. The fabric is Christmas Eve by Lella Boutique.

Libster I wanted light and airy and hope it works well with the others.
The Hexie block is beautiful, I love hexie flowers. The block for Libster is great too.
Now to clean. So many pieces of paper and fabric and threads all over. Oh my!

Loki was playing with me, LOL. Hugs!

Hello quilters!
I hope you are having a wonderful weekend. The sunshine is bringing cooler temps after the rain we had earlier in the week. The weather is driving me inside, giving me more quilting time. Well, that plus getting some outstanding projects completed.
Thank you all so-o-o much for the wonderful quilt blocks for my friend. They are so imaginative and fit the theme perfectly! He is back from the cancer center for a month or two. I hope to have the quilt finished before he has to go back for a bone marrow transplant (?) for 3 months around Christmas.

For Annaquilts
These critter blocks are for Annaquilts. The original one is frogs and dragonflies. The bonus is strictly frogs. Both are O Susannah! blocks. I certainly hope your granddaughter will love them.
Thank you very much for the wonderful star block you made for me. What pattern is that?

For Cheesehead
Thank you very much for the 2 blocks you made for the nautical quilt. Your sense of color is always spot-on. The blues look like stormy skies, and my friend certainly has some rough times ahead.
I may have gotten two baggies from you,,, Anyway, these two blocks came from one baggie. I hope you like them. The red on white fabric in the patience block reminds me of yarn balls. The second block represents kitties on a rail fence.

For Duckling
Thank you so much for my block! That's a great story behind it. My friend will love it. I have often thought of creating a quilt with the nautical flags. Maybe one day I'll use some on a panel quilt as the border.
Attached is a "Jack in the Corner" block for your quilt. Anything I tested with stripes or spirals didn't workout. I hope you like it.
Cheers!

On a roll…
Got 2 more done, one for Sewbiz and one for Terriamn, the block is called another star from Judy Hopkins book around the block again. I had to find one with the right size squares to highlight the mums in Terri’s fabric, and I managed to fussy cut a bird for Sewbiz, but it’s the fabric pull I love best. All2piecss, just love your fabric for Annaquilts, the blocks are so soft and pretty. Hugs!
