    Hi D D, I honestly think that any block or fabric we put together will be appreciated and loved...and yes we will be doing a block of your choice from the FWS Quilt_Along--It's up to you if you want to send one or two. They should be squared and pressed The only thing I ask is that all the blocks have to be the same size and the more I think about it if we just follow the patterns at 6-1/2" there won't be a problem. We need to have a deadline for the completion of the blocks to be sent. Those of you that would like to participate need to get Muriels address by PMing me for it. We will be sending them to her directly with a note or a card. I'm thinking the end of this month for the deadline and all blocks to be sent by the end of the first week in March.... March 5th to be exact. We all need to know what blocks are being made so there are no duplicates--hopefully---so if you're joining in this please post the blocks your making In This Thread. I can't think of anything else. If anyone has a better suggestion---Speak Up! What do you think about posting a photo of the blocks being made for Muriel in this thread so we can all see whick ones they are? Let me know. Anne

    Hi Everyone, A decision has been made for those of us who will be participating in making some blocks for Muriel.
    The block (s) will be from the current Line we are presently working on and the size will be the same. Muriel Loves purple and deep intense jewel tone colors. The blocks will be sent directly to Muriel with a card or note. Blocks should be squared up and pressed and sent by the 5th of March. That gives us 3 weeks to get them done.
    Post photos of the block on this thread. Post any questions on this thread. PM me for her address only. I think I covered everything--If any of you can think of anything else please let me know. Anne

    I'd like to do block #72 Railroad and block #58 Mother's Dream if those are okay. I had to pick less complicated blocks because I'm working extra hours the next 3 wks. Is this okay with everyone?
    Peace-Jan

    Hi JanRN, Yes, most definitely. Not a problem. I'm going to make a personal list of the blocks being done, Hopefully no repeats. Anne
