    WOW moonwork, you did great on the fussy cutting. Glad to see it didn't get you down.

    Great Job Moowork.... glad you mastered the Beast. I had problems with Arizona... I just kept putting the pieces on incorrectly... by the time I got to the last 2 pieces..I figured it out. OMG I did my fair share of ripping on that one, so I feel your pain. Today I've been working on some PP crazy quilt blocks of my parents clothes. Now I have to get busy picking out the fabric for my next block. Was not in the mood earlier today. Hope I can get on tomorrow morning to post the CT block. computer has been giving me fits for some reason on Sundays... It just won't let me log in.

    those red & white stars are FABULOUS!!! I wish i had thought of doing them in red & white!
    and the Ohio block----that one is my favorite out of the whole book- i've been making that one for quilts for 6 or 7 years now- when ever i need a star block i seem to gravitate to that one...
    boy---wonderful in red & white!

    Ck, your star is beautiful. Here is mine. Not quite as muddled in the middle as my Colorado.

    Great blocks, girls. I almost got a top together at QOV yesterday. They now have 300 of the 400 they need next month for the returning troops. I must quilt 6 or 7 for them as soon as I can. I have my longarm sold, so need to get mine all done so I can get my longarm to its new home.
    It is all of 15 outside with some wind. We have a storm coming in tonight with snow all night an rain/snow all day tomorrow. Our guild retreat starts Tuesday; sure hope I can make it. I want to make several blocks and get ahead on my stars.

    Janet, love your block. Tomilu, good luck with your storm. We are suppose to get one tonight also but they have been telling us that all winter and it never really shows up. I hope I didn't just speak too soon.
