Received my fabric today. Will wash and cut it tomorrow and be ready to mail when we get the list.
Great idea Dotty to include a note with our f8's. Something else I will get ready this weekend. Can't wait to get started!

Very nice fabric, I am putting together my envelopes and I am adding a note, this is so much fun, I have made 3 practice blocks and I even found an error on one pattern!
At first I was really stumped but am glad to say I worked it out and ended up with a great block. The pattern is called Square and compass, the pattern that was wrong was a quarter circle, but the instructions referred to a 1/8 circle. I tried running with the 1/4 but it was too small. After working on it a bit I realized I had to add 1/2 inch more for seam allowance. Results was a perfect Block. I was really excited to have figured it out thou!

Congrats on finding the error!
Oh I LOVE the bright selections! Great idea to sash with solids. That's going to look wonderful!
I'm quilting a baby blanket I have in the works first. But I have the selections washed and ready to cut for this boom.

Love all the fabric it is very pretty. I wish I could post pictures, but I have dial-up internet and it takes approx. 25 minutes to send 1 picture, and that's if it doesn't crash and I have to start all over again. Does anybody have any ideas of anything that would make it faster to send?
