WOW QNS!! You did a great job on those blocks. I really like the butterfly...what a neat idea!

There are two tiny moths or dragon flies in two corners...often thought about doing a quilt this way, so had ordered Marti Michell templates to make it someday....and this was fun to do. So happy they are appreciated and have a good home. That makes it all worth while. You deserve the best, Honchey for all your help through all the time of FWQS and the PC. Thank you for keeping us together as a group on QB.

Honchey you asked for old time quilt blocks and you have scored big time! Way to go QNS!

Today was spend money day. After getting bills paid made a trip to town, stopped at the Goodwill store and brought home 2 bags of ties. Yes men's ties 27 in all. What should I do with them. I think this is kind of a neat quilt. If I made it small enough it would be perfect as a framed mini. The second one also appealed to me. Am I crazy?[ATTACH=CONFIG]427068[/ATTACH][ATTACH=CONFIG]427069[/ATTACH]

JanieW ... So if you find one here in Canada, or I find one, we can tell each other. Meanwhile we'll both brush away, with the odd vacuum job! I sometimes wonder if my new machine needs cleaning more often than my old one? or just that I can see the crud more? Thank goodness for the easy access, with the pop off plate, no screwdrivers required!!

Honchey and QNSue ........... here's your ooooohs and aaaaahs! Some special blocks from to a special lady from a special lady too! Such a pretty touch with the lace on the butterfly block,

Honchey ... You are going to have one beautiful quilt!!!!

OKSGlad ... A local quilter comes up with some pretty spectacular minis using ties ... mini dresden plates and crazy quilts. So when I was in the Thrift Store last year, and it was Stuff-A-Bag-For-A-Tooney-Day ($2 Canadian coin), I stuffed away all that they had! They await ............!!!

And now ......... Good Night Ladies!
