Thanks QE. My CW bin is made up of mostly scraps and FQ's a couple of yardage pieces. The sashing will have to be pretty neutral to tie all these together. Next ones I make I will use some of the more interesting colors/designs. I do have a design wall, and they are up on it. It's the fabric that's all over. It's like my CW bin exploded and then I decided to do a fund raiser mini quilt for a dear friend who lost her husband to cancer (FR is Sunday) so I have 3/4" scraps all over! Look for a new post from me sometime tonight. FYI I think I am ocd! LOL

I think most of us quilters have ADD .... with all the UFOs and PhDs!! :) Have you posted the 4-H silent auction items yet? Will be watching for this week's charity offering!!

No I haven't. They are still in the boxes with all the other SA items. Maybe get to posting this weekend.

Maybe you'll be a sweetie and show us some of the other SA items along with yours?
We'll both be in gear this weekend, as I'm planning to show my latest FWS completions.

I had all these block pages being watched on the "old" board, but they did not transfer to the new I guess. I just spotted this thread and wanted to say I just love seeing your progress! Great Job Ladies!!!

And I appreciate all the support that the "pioneers" are giving to us Late Comers! I mentioned on another thread that being that we've all lost our "watch" markers for the threads, I would put a notice on the on the general chit-chat FWS thread that was started after #111, each time I put some more blocks on the specific threads. Watch tmro/Sunday as I need to do some photos and then can show you the latest bunch I've done. OK?

Happy New Year everyone! Here are my blocks 9 "Box" and 10 "Bow Tie."

I had to do Box twice, because the the first time my printer defaulted to 85% and I didn't notice it until the block was almost done! It will make a nice potholder though!

Nicky, I loved the subtleties of the bowtie and then wham, pow the colorful contrast in the second block. Great choice in the blue shade for your block.
I have more done and need to post them.

ITA with OKSGlad ... nice contrast in the fabrics. I really like the multi-coloured print with the metallic hilights! :)

Oh Sew Nice!
