Received funds from Linda58, Kim, and Celeste, Not sure on board names. If the fabric works Vanogay and you got a good price, send it on. I will piece it and use it. Then will just need the binding. Batting is no issue at all since I have it by the bolt here and lots of pretty thread for sure. This is coming along great.
Watterstide suggested I post this so everyone can see what is happening.
All blocks are taken care of.
Watterstide- 4 Ohio Star blocks
Twin RiverFarms- 5 Ohio Star blocks
Lindy-2 - 4 chain blocks
no more blocks are needed if these ladies are able to finnish these AMAZING!
Annaquilts -piece top
Annaquilts- $ ship top to Quiltermomma
Annaquilts- $ fabric for setting triangles
Quiltermomma- quilt the top
Quiltermomma- batting
Quiltermomma or Annaquilts- binding
Watterstide- $ for shipping to England
Vanogay- fabric for backing
Linda58- 50% shipping cost to England
There is always room for some more help especially maybe to offset some of the cost of shipping, cost of materials or donate materials like Vanogay offered with the backing.
Quiltermomma please add or subtract from this list if things develop.

I have a lot of green fabric yardage in my stash. If someone wants to give me an estimate (maybe using the kona color card) of what color greens are being used I could see if I could find a green binding. I also have a yard of lilac colored fabric with large, subtle darker purple leaf pattern that could be used for binding. If you have a kona solids color card it is in between grapemist and lavender in color -- no real close Kona match.

I do not mind on the binding at all. I get a discount at quilt store and am able to match up in person also there is another store accepts Joann fabric coupons so I can shop easy and will only be half yard for binding.

Okay here are photos of the fabrics I have that can be used for the backings. Quiltermomma, tell me which one you think would be best and how many yards you want. Ladies that are making the blocks - which do you think will be best?
I sent you PM Quiltermomma for your address.
Both are Blank Textiles fabrics - pattern BTR 3504 and one is green mottled and the other purple mottled. Maybe a trip to their website would give better fabric colorations?? Here goes -
first two are the purple and the last is the green

Matching in person would certainly work better, as long as you don't mind. Thanks for letting me know. I won't worry about it then.

I like the first one but have not seen the blocks. If top is in purples and whites I say the first one it has more purple and my preference is 4 yards and I can send back unless it works for binding.

My partner (valleyquiltermo) was back in the hospital again. She is back at home and on bed rest. I would like to ask all of you to keep her in your prayers.
I am hoping she is back on her feet soon and can finish my quilt, my husband and I are going to be driving down to Louisiana the first part of Nov and I asked Donna if she wants to exchange quilts in person. If she is up to it I think that would be awesome !!! Have a great week everyone !

I kinda thought the first one too. The second (3rd picture) did not show up nice at all. It really is a pretty piece of fabric. 4 yards it is.
Quiltermomma, Will try for mailing AS SOON AS YOU SEND ME YOUR ADDRESS (did you notice the emphasis?)
