It is going to save so much time and fabric for me.

There sure are a lot of fabulous blocks showing up here. What an impressive pile of quilts there will be next spring!
At this rate, we will soon need a new thread for the next four blocks. (or do we keep going here)

No they are not hand pieced. I may end up having to do that on some. I made a Giant Dahlia top all hand pieced. That is the first and last unless for some reason I have a ton of time that I cannot get to a machine again. Name?? I must have missed something. I have called out a few names already but nothing I can repeat here.

Quite a few people have named theirs already, it's not compulsory. :-)
I think I'll be doing a couple of blocks by hand too, but they'll be as few as possible, I can't imagine doing all of them! I think of that often while using my machine, how many Jane must have done by hand.

Hey K, no, you didn't miss anything. I was just musing that it would be nice to associate people's blocks with their names...sorta like a way to remember what their design is, etc. So, if ya got something, let's hear it...if not...or it's unspeakable, that's good too!

Hi, they probably will be similar cos I have got so many of them from an earlier quilt (When we had more cash). I thought I would try to keep it to ochre colours - we visited an ochre mine in Wales some time ago and it was really fascinating. Can't wait for next set now.
