    Abel...I agree with QuiltE. Seeing it is a great way to start my day.

    Dubib...you must have an entire stash of patriotic fabric. I haven't gone back to count but have you used any of them twice?

    Great blocks, dublb. Yipes-you all are so brave to work with stripes-just beautiful. I love your flags & heart block-fits with your over all design plan and it's gorgeos.
    Anael-such a pretty block, soft but sticking with the PonyClub theme. Well done.
    Jeanie eagerly awaiting your "reworked" block LOL.

    Beautiful Eye Candy. Everybody here is doing such beautiful blocks.
    Honchey - Love the bright colors and fabrics It's a happy corral.
    Mirabelle - beautiful blocks, I like them so much
    JanRN - Very well done, I love the greens and how the diagonal yellow gave moviment to the block
    QuiltE - I know exactly what are you feeling. The same to me with the WOW as background fabric. I liked the strips the way they are. Love your green clover fabric, just perfect for the block.
    Wendiq - Beautiful blocks, I like specially the result you got with the rope moviment in the Corral
    Termi - You have the perfect fabrics. So cute the mini cheaps with the mini clovers. Perfect!
    Dublb – what a great option for replacement the clover blossom. Your patriotic quilt is turning greatest every week JeaneG – I will look forward to see your blocks. Sorry about those frog stitching.
    Anael – Sure it is a beautiful end of day.

    Here are my blocks for this week:

    Let us hope I can post Clover blossom and Colt's corral...[ATTACH=CONFIG]314745[/ATTACH][ATTACH=CONFIG]314748[/ATTACH]the colt is a young male pony and a filly is a mare pony. We were lucky enough to enjoy both in our youth. Even built a corral to keep the ponies handy. After both pony mares had young, we played a game with them; the youngsters would get interested in whatever, and we would quietly ride the mares away from the foals, waiting around a corner of a building, and watch as the foals would suddenly "discover" Mom was missing and come looking for us. Moms were into the game of hide-and-go-seek as well. Skybaby was 17 inches tall and 21 inches long at birth. Granddad's Mother, Sarah Whicker, said "I want all my great-great-great-great-grandkids to know when I was 86 years young, I could hold a horse in my arms!!"...as she held Skybaby in her arms. Alas, both her and granddad have long passed away, but the memories still linger in my mind.

    Arte & QNS, beautiful blocks. You both nailed the PC theme. Love the wood grain in the blocks; really adds something special. These blocks are so much fun to look at. Honchey's right: great eye candy!

    Arte and NinaSue, beautiful blocks! I like the Colt's Corral blocks but not in my quilt, I don't see how I can fit this block in.

    I had that happen to me a couple weeks back. Funny how the picture showed it up isn't it?
