I'm new to this group, so I will be playing catchup. I chose a collection of fabric I purchased about 20 years ago and saved for that perfect pattern. THIS IS IT!! The darker fabric is purple, doesn't show well, but looks beautiful in person.

I haven't chosen fabric for the 2nd block yet, Grandkiddies are arriving in 1 hour for a sleepover, so I will get to it tomorrow, after I rest from the whirlwind!

Hope you enjoy my block

I would like to participate, just joined the board and found this BOM and I have lots of fabric in my stash just screaming to be used.

This BOM is perfect for using your stash. I made one small quilt already with months Jan-May and am starting on another! Welcome!

Barb in Lousianna, Thanks for pointing out the 'bonus' block, I missed this! :)

Everyone has posted beautiful blocks! It's so much fun to see all the different fabrics and it shows just what fabric can do! Here is my last July block and it's only the 22nd of the month! whoop! Caught up! Here at least! lol

Hugs,
Cajun

Gorgeous fabrics, pndnana..pretty block too. You could just use the same fabrics for block 2, just rearrange prints. That's what a lot of the ladies are doing, including me...;o)

So, I finished the extra bloc so quickly today, I decided to go back and do the other block for the month as well. I also decided I would do Bonnie Hunter's Leader Ender project this year since it was a rather simple one as compared to other years. It's amazing how much you can get done 'in-between' blocks you're already working on. Here are my blocks: [ATTACH=CONFIG]577088[/ATTACH] [ATTACH=CONFIG]577089[/ATTACH]

Everyone is doing a great job working on their blocks. I just love all of them.

I have 2 more blocks from previous months completed. [ATTACH=CONFIG]577111[/ATTACH]Here's one of them. [ATTACH=CONFIG]577112[/ATTACH]
Here's the other one. (I wasn't sure the system would post both).
