    Oh Karen and MamaHen, those blocks are beautiful ! ! ! ! !

    MamaHen, what kind of fabric are you using as your background? I love the colour!

    Anael, it is from the Heirloom Collection by Harriet Hargrave for P & B Textiles, I have had it for a number of years now so decided it was time to use it.

    Beautiful blocks. I picked up a bit more fabric today for Sylvia Blocks, and got the book spiral bound so it lays flat on the scanner or table...on the small FART trip I and a good lady friend made today. Since I drove and used my car, she would not let me pay for one item at the Quilt Store or Grocery store. So we acquired fabric for her two yr old grandson an I SPY Quilt. Now to get caught up on the current blocks on Sylvia.

    I don't think this can be done BUT I did figure out how to have mine look like I did it. First I inserted a row at the top and put # 1-10 across; then I inserted a column on the left and put A-N down there; then I went to Tools-options-view and unchecked row & column headings; then I highlighted the top two rows and went to Window & selected freeze panes and saved. Now my spreadsheet shows numbers across the top that show while I scroll down the spreadsheet, and I have the letters on the left.

    Thimblebug so sorry about the broken wing, but looks like you are putting your time to good use.
    Meribelle nice blocks Have you already sashed and put some together?
    Karen G- that is what we should all be doing, having fun!
    MamaHen- wow, lots of sewing, great colors
    All- looking good!
    I got behind this week due to going to a quilt show. Took Feathered Stars from Marsha McCloskey, talk about tiny piecing. Great class!
