I about fell over on the floor - they must've talked about fabrics making others "pop" in the class, and she really got it!

Thank you so much for organizing and pulling all these together. You are putting so much time in - I cannnot get over the generosity of the ladies (and gents) on this board!
I just love these 'young quilter' stories! That is some awesome baseball fabric, esq! He is going to love it. So thoughtful of Martina, or ?, may have been...sorry, name escapes me, right now...oh wonderful person that offered to do embroidery :lol: ...anyway, to think of Glendon.
I try to do that, when somebody gets married and there are small children...new, 'steps'...I think it may help with the transistion. :D
oh, and somebody offered to send backing fabric,...how awesome are ppl here? :D

Celeste, you've been a busy girl indeed. I counted 11 blocks - holy cow. Great variety of fabrics too. Thanks!

Teresa, I forgot to say thanks for the extra FQs - that was sweet.

I'll have some time this week to finish off the bits and pieces that are missing. (Some hearts - some words). Not a problem - that will keep me off the street. lol

Just to make sure: Are there any hands still in the works or in the mail?

This group (as always) has done a wonderful job. Can you believe it: Currently I have 39 blocks. Some still need to have a little work to finish them off. As soon as I get them done, I'll bring them to work (where there's a bit more space than at the house) and lay them out to take a GOOD picture.

At that point, I'll need your input on how to finish it. 39 Blocks sounds like a HUGE-ish quilt.

I was thinking maybe a 5X6 for the raffle and a 3X3 for Kennedy?????????

DH picked up the mail and he told me I had a "smooshy" - he must have been thinking "squishy." Anyway - your hand is here and I love the fabric. Where did you find the fabric that had the letters in it?

I promise, but right now my time is split. I am in charge of texturing the walls and the ceiling in the office/guestroom. 11x11 sounds and looks like a small room - UNTIL the walls need to be redone. (DH and I are on a never-ending quest of home improvement.)

Hope my arms won't fall off - lol.
