No packing for me today, as I woke up this morning with a horribly bad back. I am lucky and my chiropractor can see me this evening, so I know I'll be as good as new soon. But... no packing means sewing time!
I got three blocks done. I might remake F-6. Thanks, Judith, for your FQs! They are already in use!

Aunt Jo, great blocks. I think the applique block is a throw back to the books written by Jennifer Chiaverini. Your needle turn is just beautiful. You could change the block if you want to.

What great blocks this morning! NZquilter, your Sylvia is going to be so vibrant. Hope your back is better after your chiropractor visit. I agree with you about that friendship block, Auntjo. I haven't come to it yet, am seriously considering replacing it. There are so many great pieced blocks out there to do, and I'm not a huge fan of applique. How many blocks have you completed?

Here she is...all done...
E2E over blocks are curls; mini border are curls; applique border curls... And...flanged binding with a bit of wedding lace trim cuz I just couldn't do a bridal quilt without lace. Lol..

Teen, it is so beautiful I'm lost for words! The bridal lace was a genius idea and such a lovely touch. Everything thing about the quilt, from your color choice and your piecing to your quilting design and binding are perfect! Congratulations on finishing!!!

Guess what I've got on the frame today!
I was able to get a super pale blue thread yesterday. It's a brand I've not used before, but have heard good things about it. I'm doing a lot of FMQ so this is going to take a while.
