    I'm baaaaaaaaaaack!

    W4Me ... thank you! and thank you took, for nudging me to not repeat any of the blues! I hadn't even thought about that, til you mentioned it!

    MiraB ... 74 is hardly almost done!! Yes, looks like I should have more than enough blues to not repeat! Thanks to Jane's Friends!

    JanRN ... Thank you! I am quite pleased with it, though I was quite nervous about it for quite awhile after I started. I was inspired and encouraged by GrannyQs FWS and PC.

    Honchey ... yes, hand applique. Kind of stumbling along and learning on the fly!

    Anael ... nooooooooooooooooooo on the handquilting by me, though I am thinking it needs it. So will call on some Mennonite or Amish Ladies when the time comes!!

    And no ... not one made this month .... yet!!!!!!!!!!!!!

    Repeat ... noooooooooooooo!!!!!!
    I have done a bit of handquilting and yes, enjoyed it ..... so far I have not fallen in love with it enough to want to do a whole big one. Would sooner spend that time doing some piecework or machine quilting!

    What else can I say, but "sigh"....QE the blues are so calming... and mirabelle the pink and brown combo so sweet.
    mirabelle, how are you coming on pink and brown fabric? As long as I'm making a DJ surreptitiously in QE's, I might as well claim I have a hand in two DJ's--without sewing a stitch!

    MiraB ... those are so "deliciously sweet"!
    I'm only ahead of you, because I started first.
    Plus, think of all the other things you are doing, and completing ... you far surpass me!

    Go for it OKSGlad ... after all, you really do need a 2nd DJ on the go (surreptitiously!)
    I keep seeing MiraB's as chocolate candy with pink icing!
