You're all great with your comments and support!

It took me awhile to get to doing A Beauty ... couldn't figure out the fabric, and just wasn't

I've now got my first 15 done ... though I think I'm going to remake that one I botched up when I shouldn't have been sewing when I was sick!

QuiltE, Wow!! your beauty block IS a beauty. I love the hats and they even have your signature yellow in the background. Even the back of your block looks so neat. I'd never have the courage to show the backs of mine. Great job!

Honchey

QuiltE, Your blocks are show stoppers!!! Verrrrrrry Nice! H.

QuiltE

Honchey ... You're too kind! Thanks for creating Spring Break ... it's been nice to do the catch up, without cramming them in with other blocks!! Hope you are enjoying your "southern" Easter getaway!! Quilty production? or just a good R+R?

Thanks Termi ... I'm wanting some of the plain or print in every block ... I wasn't sure if I had enough in that block or not? Almost did the corners in the yellow, but backed off, and am glad I did. I showed the back, so everyone could see, that it could be PP'd! Notice my colour coding with the highlighters ... and the pink outline to remind me that it's the outside edge. I don't trim those off til the block is all assembled, paper off, and fully pressed. Then I square it all up and trim. BTW ... I left you a note and link over in the Spring Break thread!

QuiltE....that hat fabric is great. Love the way you were able to capture the neck scarves with the hats. Nice....

QuiltE

Thanks WendiQ ... there's quite a few different things in that print, so I've been fussy cutting it as I go. It's been driving me nuts though, as the individual things are too close together for nice FC! See how some of the print comes into the corners ... and makes them look as though they aren't square! I had one block that I abandoned as it just totally ruined the starburst effect ... this one I was able to live with.

QE--ditto on all the comments about your blocks! So are you going to have fabric with neat little squares cut out here and there? Those pieces would make the basis to some Crazy quilt blocks to fill in as substitutions. Just an idea.

QuiltE

Aren't we all going to have cut out fabric?
I was also looking at it and thinking of rail fence blocks? or squares and the plethora of projects they could create.
Last night took some of the PC crumbs and sewed some together ... will see what happens!

And of course, we could all use them to make mini-quilts!
