Here are a few blocks that I have done in between working in my flowers and getting ready for vacation. The block number are I-13 through J-8. I have J-9 completed but apparently I can only download 10 photos. I will post that on a separate message. I enjoyed working on this group. Some of them were a little easier but we still had those pesty melons that are challenging to say the least.

Thank you CindyA! Kmeyer has inspired me (read as embarrassed me for going so sloooooow) with her awesome work to get it in gear and do a few more. SheriR puts together several kits in advance so that the blocks are ready to go. I find that method works better for me...less procrastination when I'm in the sewing mood.

C11 - super cheated by appliqueing one piece of snow to the background. I'll hand quilt in the lines someday. Ha ha

C4 - pieced center, paper pieced outer

Fraew, your blocks are very nice. Thanks for the nice comments on my blocks. My plan was to do 10 blocks a month so it would take me about two years to do the dj but I had the hardship of my mom's passing that interfered with my plan. I am back working hard to keep up with the 10 blocks per month. I have not done any of the triangles yet so they are next and they look quite challenging. I have enjoyed the hunt for the fabric that matches Brenda's as close as possible. Some of them are rather hard to find.

Well done, again, Fraew!! I think I remember you from way back on the first thread Monica started, don't I? I apologize for not posting blocks for so long. I've made a few, but it has changed how I move pictures from my phone to computer and I usually just do it in big batches. By then, I forget what blocks I've done since I last posted pictures. I have picked it up again and am currently doing some big stitch quilting, quilt as you go method, using a Valdani thread, which I'm enjoying.

Kmeyer, I'm so sorry for your loss and hope that having time to stitch again is soothing for your soul. I know it is for mine. You are no slacker if your goal is 10 blocks a month!!! Sounds not so bad, but those of us doing DJ know what it really means. LOL

Thanks again for sharing.

@CindyA: yes, I'm one of the slow pokes from the 2012 group. Eeeeek!

Please post away! There's plenty of room here for eye candy.
