Am home from my short but wonderful visit with DS and Future DIL. Oh, boy, do I love Asheville! DH and I walked miles and miles <3 there were so many things to do and see. We'll be going fairly often I imagine. But right now, it's almost boom time and today is blood donation day, clean the house day, shopping day and generally get ready for my friend's visit. Sheesh. Back to the Booms...
mjpEncinitas, please email me with exactly what you want. I'm now confused...
Love the song and like GramE, I can hear it in my head! Great, today's earworm!
Ditto 
Macybaby, the 3 month is full but if a spot opens up, I'll check with you to see if you are still interested. You can be the first on the waiting list. Love your beautiful fabrics!
Marija, I've got you on the list for the 3 month but please check for my latest email. Welcome back! Jaba, the purple is gorgeous. Which goes to which group?
So glad to have you join us again, Mona G.
SBG, welcome back. TOT is tone on tone.
mjp and Marija, It's lovely to have a person to share with!

Janice can I get into the 2 month group and only send 7? I’ve always wanted to try two groups but haven’t felt comfortable enough doing it. This will ease me into it. And I want to get one of GramE blocks . So I can see her technique. I think I’d like to try it while I travel. So I would send 7 and everyone else will send 29. I will make a table runner.
I'm working on the parts of Pamela's block that I have fabric for, and I am FPP. It has been a while since I did a picture FPP w/ tiny odd ball shapes. All the FPPing I have done lately has been repeat geometric where you can precut the pieces and sew the same thing 6 or 8 times anyway the song "It's all Coming Back to Me Now" keeps running through my head. lol

Love your beautiful fabrics! we get so use to doing the same thing over and over again with quilting - I recently made 3 pairs of lounge pants for the summer - all with white thread so I did them simultaneously. I told DH is seemed strange to only do each step three times!
Janice, I didn't sign up for the 3 month group, but if you are short I'll gladly fill in (In addition to the 2 month group). I did not want to take up a spot from someone that could only do the 3 month group.
For the two month group, I plan on sending out 19 different tonal solids - with instructions to use prints and no neutrals ( no whites, creams, greys or blacks). I have no problem getting duplicates, I like to make all different blocks anyway.

I have the most tedious part of Pamela's block finished, and nearly all of what I can get done until we exchange fabric and while I'm not going to give away the look of the completed part I have done, I will post a teaser pic!!!! lol lol lol (read that as a maniacal lol)

Macybaby, is there any way you would consider the 2 month group? You could still get 19 blocks back. I usually have my 2 and 3 month groups done by the time it's time to mail the 2 month's back. Just something to think about. I would love your pretty blocks to be included this Boom.
Wow, Kass! Crabclaw?? Okay, how far off am I? LOL

Crab claw?, octopus tentacle?, scorpion tail?, worm partying w/ the early bird?, ribbon tied around some flowers?, hummmmmm so many possibilities!
