    Hav is the other color for the cat fabric to be solid also or tone on tone?

    Solid or tone-on-tone. Just no prints. I want the cats to be the focal of the quilt.

    Morning, Early Birds. It looks like Mona G’s F8s will arrive today and Hav’s are confirmed enroute. Looking good!

    Hav, am looking forward to seeing your cats and making a block. They’re so cheery and bright!

    Thanks for the reminder.. most Boomers really do prefer that blocks be made with a good portion of the f8s they send; it should be the focus of the block. Please let’s all make good use of everyone’s fabric. I’ve never had anyone tell me they appreciated a block made with one or two 4” pieces of their f8. Thank you!

    Great block, and designing your own is so empowering.

    Hav, your fabric will be fun to make multiple blocks from. Lots of color choices

    Morning Early Birds. I've pulled Mona G's and Moonrise's fabrics for quick pix. I'd already sorted them out and feared messing up the packages I'd made so while I believe I got all of Mona's, I believe I missed two of Moonrise's but this will help a bit.

    Mona G's (in packages so not a great shot)

    [ATTACH=CONFIG]615524[/ATTACH]
    Moonrise (2 fabrics missing)

    I'll put these in the gallery shortly along with any other's I've not added recently. BTW, I've shut down the main group galleries temporarily.

    Also: It appears that all Early Bird fabrics will be in my hands today. I've begun packaging them up and they'll be ready soon. Those of you in only this group, that's GramE, Moonrise, Macybaby, and Mona G, I'll be ready to ship to you on Monday of next week. Any objections to receiving them ahead of schedule? This will not change the due date. You'll just have an extra week. For everyone else, the plan is to ship both groups together so I'll be holding yours for the remainder of the Night Owls' f8s.

    GramE, Moonrise, Macybaby, and Mona G, let me know by the end of the weekend if you'd like me to ship early. If I do not hear from you, I will hold them until 8/11. Thanks!

    I'm looking forward to making the blocks - I've already been looking at a few designs I've not tried before.
