    Well I’m finishing with a whimper. In the interest of getting my blocks in on time I made a simple block for have4boys. Of course after I made it I realized it wasn’t on point, so here I am reconstructing it at midnight. I had a beautiful drawing of a little girl catching butterflies in a net, a peacock block [ATTACH=CONFIG]592136[/ATTACH] and a few others tha[ATTACH=CONFIG]592137[/ATTACH]t I didn’t have time for.

    For Kassaundra I did another flower block.

    I'm headed back east to spend 3 or 4 days each in NY, MD, and Fla where I will be doing taxes for various relatives. And No I’m not getting paid. I am staying at an Airbnb with an ‘award winning’ quilter in FL

    Taxes and booming didn’t work well this year. I had such a challenging time with this boom, I guess it’s time to take a break. So I’ll be sitting out the next boom.
    Thanks for the address Terry and Sewbiz. I’ll be sending these blocks tomorrow.

    thanks for swapping with me everyone.

    Nice pic of your sister and her dog, Hav4. Those border collies are really smart dogs!

    MJP, your final blocks are lovely. Sorry you won't be playing next time, but sometimes a break does serve to recharge our battery! Safe travels~.

    Well, my cat material came but I have scratched that for my next BOOM and am going to make a search and rescue dog quilt for my sister. She trains dog for search and rescue and has her dog Louise. She is an amazing dog. This is the material:[ATTACH=CONFIG]592123[/ATTACH]

    Here is my sister with Louise:

    This is going to a amazing quilt and a surprise for my sister.


    Hav4boys, nice picture of your sister and her dog! My son was a K-9 police officer. His partner was Blade, a rottwieller. Blade served for 9 years. He was a much loved dog by all of us.

    Sorry, I didn't see this until just now. I'm saddened to hear this boom was so rough on you but your blocks are terrific! No worries on that score.

    Darker blue. They're stacked vertically on my screen so I believe it's the top one, the darker.

    Mariposa, that’s a gorgeous block you made for Hav4... love the use of greens. Does the block have a name/source?

    The block is called "Twin Star", and is block # 844 in Quiltmaker's 1000 Blocks book. It was a fun block to do~
