    Andii...........your February Heart Cat block turned out Awesome!! It's just beautiful & I really like the idea you used of putting both childhood kitties together like that. What a great idea. This is such a fun way to make our blocks individualized for our personal use. Nice work. Thank you for sharing with all of us today. Tomorrow brings us a new block for March. YEAH!!

    I finally got up the nerve to share photos of my blocks. The January block is my version of a "Winter Snowflake". The pattern gave me trouble so I gave up and made my own. The February block was a little easier and so fun. Again, I made it larger to match the size. I'm enjoying this BOM activity. Here are my pictures (I hope).

    Double WOW!! I just love both of your blocks, for this year's BOM calendar theme project. Your February Heart Cat block is just to cute for words & I really like the log cabin look that you surrounded your cat with. What a great idea!! I also like your January 2012 Snow Blossom block. Your black & white fabric's really look good together. I am just amazed at all of the neat idea's that have been showing up in this picture thread. Keep up the good work.

    Thanks, Judy! I am ready for a new block too. The first few days after seeing the new block I want to cut and sew but I really like to see everyone else's take shape and get ideas. I love the creativity here and the way our eyes all see things a little different colored.

    Andii, Your block is awesome, love the tails and the love portrayed in the picture. This has got to be my favorite.
    Everyone's blocks are great! Each one so individual and special. Mine of course will have to be posted in a couple of days. I am having a bit of trouble. I did a little machine embroidery to give it more of a valentine look. The first 2 blocks I did, I did not like the colors so I did them over. One of them had a pucker so I decided to iron on the back and I guess the thread melted, any way it shrunk and distorted the embroidery portion of my block. So I now have to make another block and then sew them together. Still looking forward to Tomorrows block
