    Welcome back, Duckling! And great to hear from Cheese, too. I had great results from my cataract surgery. I can see 20/20 now (better than in my whole life!) and got to ditch my driving/distance glasses. I can read signs from way far off. It's wonderful.

    Janice, had to smile at how you play with the dragonflies while you are in the pool.
    Remember that if you fall short on the numbers, I can be called upon to do a second set of blocks.

    I love that dandelion fabric!

    We have had an all-Mississippi Shop Hop the whole month of March. I didn't try to go to all the stores, but did hit maybe 6. It's been so much fun traveling with friends from the guild.

    Prayers for little Ernie... he's so lucky to have found his way to you.

    Good morning, Boomers. Just a few days until we close signups and get started. I have responded to all emails to join the swap to date. If you don’t see your name on the list, I haven’t gotten your information yet. Please review post number one!

    It’s another beautiful morning. If only all of them were this pleasant.

    Enjoy your day!

Seriously, if you request stars, please remember that block choice is the maker's choice but I'll bet stars will be in there somewhere.

    I love making star blocks!

    [QUOTE=sewbizgirl;8719983]Yay, it's great to have old Boom friends return to play! I've been trying to get B'stone back for the last several booms. Glad you are joining, B'stone, and everyone else too!

    Love this fabric. Can't wait.

    Here's the back story on the butterfly fabric:This quilt is incredibly special to me. It’s being made for my dear friend Judy, who loves butterflies, yellow, and purple. 🦋💛💜

    In 2021, her family was hit hard with COVID and were all hospitalized. Judy shared a room with her 29-year-old son Caleb. Tragically, his lungs collapsed, and he passed away. He left behind his wife and two beautiful little girls, just 3 years old and 2 months old at the time.

    Judy then suffered a major stroke. She was hospitalized for months. What she has walked through since then has not been easy, but she has fought her way back. Step by step, word by word, she has regained her speech and her ability to walk. She is truly a testament of grace, strength, and unwavering faith… a warrior in every sense of the word.

    This quilt is being made especially for her. 💖

    Thank you so much for being part of something so meaningful. I can’t wait to see your beautiful block and all the love that goes into it. 🧵✨

    Have4, thank you for sharing the story of your friend. It will make each block special as we stitch.
