This Christmas fabric is for the 2 month group and I have asked that you use off white and or gold that is in the fabric. No other prints please, except something like this holiday white print. I made a block to kind of show what I have in mind if that helps any.[ATTACH=CONFIG]585824[/ATTACH][ATTACH=CONFIG]585825[/ATTACH]
This is the fabric for the 3 month group. Cream or the mint color in the fabric would be great. No other prints with this busy fabric please, solids or tone on tones would be appreciated.[ATTACH=CONFIG]585826[/ATTACH][ATTACH=CONFIG]585827[/ATTACH]

Lovely stars, Jaba. Ha, when I move I have someone else put the kitchen away, then I just put everything back where I get it from. We’ve lived here 5 years and this year I made a few rearrangements in the kitchen more from old age and making less bending than anything else! Happy settling in!

Theses fabrics are all All so wonderful. You all are going to have a delicious swap!

Merry Christmas to all.

Aw thanks gram e, I hope so! Color is off for some reason on the 3 month group, that blue is actually a mint green. They do have a blue too, got it at Connecting Threads. Think it was in the Mirage line

Here's a 12" Carolina Lily block pattern, but it's for sale. It looks like it just is a smaller block with white strips around the pattern to get up to the 12" size though.

Press and cutting done! It is amazing how “off” FQ are. Most squared up fairly well, and I was able to get 2 F8 (18x10) out of a FQ. Some were cut really cut crooked and I just cut 1 F8 out of it.

Kass, yours is on top!

Kass, that dressie is awesome! You never cease to amaze me!

Terri, what fun fabric for a man's quilt. Can't wait to see all the blocks.

Jaba, glad you are finally settled in your new house. I love your choice of fabrics.

I got a lot of packing done. Will be putting my place up for sale in a couple weeks. The sooner I sell, the sooner I can be in Ohio. Wish me luck!

I finally decided to go with this fabric for the 3 month group. I have 15 for the 2 month of the other fabric. with this one Im going to ask for WOW and or the blue thats in the sentence The Lord is my Shepherd...or as close as you can get to that or a darker blue. I wont have enough of the carpenter star fabric to make a full quilt so I think this will match it pretty well!! All the fabrics are so pretty. Jaba glad to see you are getting settled in. Kass No Way Id even try that fabric you made the block out of. Its so perfectly matched and does look like the diamonds get bigger! Merry Christmas everyone!!
