    The ceiling is done all but the trim but that's another whole process. All of the walls needs new paper/paint first. I did get the Colt's Corral done too but I'll post it after I finish Clover Blossom this weekend. The D9 for my DS is in the disappearing stage. I've never done one before but it's going together real easy.

    Great blocks, JeanieG. I really like the clover fabric. I didn't have any and since I am really trying to "destash", I refused to buy any.... But your's makes me think I should have......Of course, I am one that loves the horseshoes in any form and your Colt's Corral is just fine....Aren't these fun to do and then share and see?????

    Thank you everyone for the nice comments on my blocks! Wendig, I agree that these blocks are "fun to do and share". I so look forward to "working" (playing) with these blocks each week!

    Thank you all for the kind compliments for my blocks. It happens... sometimes I find almost the perfect fabrics.

    QNinaSue - Great blocks oh yes, the grass seems to be greenest on the other side. How neat is that. Great idea. I love reading your stories, keep up the memories come out. Very special.

    JeanieG - I love your Clover blossom, the brown fits so well. Beautiful blocks.

    Hi GG970, I've done 4 DNP's and they all look great when finished. Next to try is the DFP which is done using 4 Patches.

    Thanks for your encouragement, Honchey. Did you do them scrappy or with the same colors? I'm using 4 darks and 4 lights so I'm concerned that I get similar fabrics too close together. How much of a problem is that in the final layout? I have only sewn together 2 of the final blocks.

    It was so sad this morning to not have new blocks to look at with my coffee. Here are mine for the rest of you to enjoy...both are scrappy. Clover Blossom used the last of that floral and Colt's Corral is fabric from the ends of the strips I had from the D9 that I'm doing. The scrap pieces just keep growing with everything I do so I'm focusing on getting them pared down to size. Only 2 more days....

    Gardnergal.....your fabric for the Clover Blossom is beautiful and the Colt's Corral is a great use of scraps.......I think yours is the only one I've seen done that way.....I like it@
    I hope you will share your four patch DP9 with us when you are done. I've done several, but none using a four patch. I'm interested in seeing what you do...
