Here's another place to continue our group discussion, since our old thread seems to have reached it's limit. Chat on!

Honchey

Thanks Sewbiz for doing this..I guess we were on overload

JanRN and Givio, your packages were sent out today and you should get them in three days.

Thanks SBG, for getting us back on line again here. I have missed our chats. No FW blocks to show this week..until later.

sewbizgirl

Yes, it was traumatic being without our thread! Hope all the gang finds us here.

I don't have blocks to show for this week yet, either. Tomorrow night is my charity quilters meeting and I need to get some stuff finished to take with me to donate, so I probably will be late getting my FWS blocks done this week.

Honchey, sorry you had a bad experience with the Boom swap. I'm hoping for the best. Mainly, I just want to play with making blocks with everyone else's fabrics for them. The fabric I'm sending in is some of the loot I got from Hancock's liquidation.

And I experimented with blowing up some FW1930's templates 200% and they came out perfect for 12.5" blocks. Here is the one I played with so far:

Remember this one? It's block #9, Autumn!

Today is so unbearably HOT here... even the dog doesn't want to go out.

Thanks SBG....aren't we quite a group?

Nice rendition for your swap...I haven't participated in the book swaps...years ago did the doll quilt swap and enjoyed it.

Honchey

Oooh it's so pretty..I think the fabrics have alot to do with it too!..

We, as a group and with the Quiltalong really occupied the Blocks of the Month & Week

All you see is FWS, FWS, FWS Ha ha, I laugh when I see all the threads

Everybody, I just got a message from Susan (JuneBillie) that her father died tonight. She asked me to tell you all for her, so I am... I know they have been expecting it, but it's still a shock when it happens and is final.

Glad I found yinz. After all the years we've spent together I can't imagine not talking to yinz at least once a week. So sorry for Susan's loss, and as you said it's still difficult even when expected. Let's enjoy today, remember fondly those we've lost, and give thanks and positive thoughts to those we love. I include yinz in my list of blessings.

sewbizgirl

You too, Jan. And glad you found the new thread.

Thanks for the link to this new thread. Got to get busy and take photos of my blocks and post. I cannot believe this is almost over! I have so many UFO's to get to work on. Can't wait to finish up some probjects.
