    Libster, thank you very much for the beautiful block! You know my love of stars. Sorry I missed it last night when I was quickly scrolling through. Clearly I hadn't gone back far enough.

    Anniequilts, thank you for the beautiful block you made me! All of the blocks you made are wonderful!

    MJP, such a beautiful applique set of birds on Pamela's quilt block! I too have been to a couple of quilt stores trying to find that Kona fabric without success. I'm still finding it exceptionally hard to cut into her beautiful fabric.

    I love the variety- I think having simple to complex blocks in a quilt make it all meld together somehow.
    NanaKathy - you took one pattern but made it differently each time it is amazing. I love my apples and the green is the perfect compliment. I noticed it matched someone the tennis fabric - complete opposites!
    Terriamn - love my basket. Can't ya just taste the pie?
    And Applique has never been my go-to. But I love it - and love what you all can do using this technique. It may be easy for you - but it inspires awe to me!
    Whenever I look at the gallery (and thank you again JaniceMc) and see all the blocks together - it just blows me away. It also helps me pick out fabric to send!
    Have two more blocks on the table with their patterns and one on the ironing board finished.

    I too have tried all the stores around for the Kona Dreamsicle and have come up empty handed. The orange and the applique is so pretty.

    Thank you for the lovely block with the purples. I can’t wait to make this for my mom.

It looks better in real life.

    I like trees too. This turned out great.

    Annie, such beautiful blocks. I especially like this one for Janice with the embroidery. It is similar to an idea I had but with the gold embroidery it is stunning.

    I’m glad you like the flower galaxy or as Kass sees it, a Cubist’s Wedding. It will be fun to wonder what your teen will see.

    Yikes! I thought including the name would make it easier to find, not harder! Feel free to use any colors you think match, no need to match that darn color exactly. I was wondering, if I’d sent a slightly larger piece if that would have made a difference, say a layer cake size? I was wondering if so, if that would be a do-able size for our shipping? What do you think Janice?
