I went to the post office on Saturday to mail my F8's and there was a pipe to bust in the lobby of our post office, needless to say I could not mail. I plan on stopping by on Monday Morning. Fabric will go out then.
I then went to our local Salvation Army. Someone had donated their entire Fabric stash. Lots of bags of fabric, Mostly yardage and fat quarters. I was in heaven. There were lots of civil war fabrics. I bought two bags full. $4.00 a piece. I would have bought more but I only brought a little cash with me. I hope to go back during the week to see if there is any left. I would buy it all.

Janice I love making Christmas blocks, can’t wait to work on yours.
Letsew, just dropped off several bags of mt fabric to our local second hand store. Hope who ever buys them appreciates them as much as you do yours.

While waiting for the BOOM fabric to arrive, I decided to do FatCat's Hen Party Quilt. Here are my first 3 blocks.

I so hope I get that wild one. My mind is going a mile a minute on what I can do with that!
Here are my two fabrics. The orangey one is a repeat with an extra purple fabric to go with it. 15 of you will get that. The second fabric is the wild one on the left, four of you will get that.
anyone else besides Kass like to work with repeats? I can make sure you get the repeat. I put Kassaundras name on one of them as I bought the fabric with her in mind. [ATTACH=CONFIG]607399[/ATTACH]
Im looking forward to getting my hands on your fabric.

Posting finished blocks
Gallery is up for both groups. Those who have made blocks already will find their blocks in there. It's very important, especially in the beginning, that you post your blocks to the correct group and post the fabric owner's name with every single block. I'll eventually learn everyone's fabrics but right now, I honestly don't have a clue! Some people will edit the photo with that info directly on the pic. It's not necessary for me but having the block owner's name with the picture will help me immensely. And don't forget to keep pic size to 200 kb or smaller. Thanks!

have4boys - The Hen Party is so much fun! Every one of those hens just make me want to giggle 
Love all of the color in your blocks too! I'm paying close attention to those that have made blocks from their own fabrics.. I really like 3+ fabrics as it seems to really bring the focus fabric alive!
