    Poker Diva....what a great idea using left over fabs for the siggi fill in blocks....they say imitation is the best form of flattery! (hope you don't mind if I follow suit!)
    Whew! lots more to go! I'm having a great time with your fabs!

    Ladies,
    Here is a picture of the beautiful block with the Laurel Burch fabric in the center. It looks like it was made for the rest of the fabric in the block. Thank you so much for your creativity.

    PokerDiva - that is such a cute idea! :)

    pattis/Chigger Holler - love the star block with the cats! So creative and it matches perfectly!

    If I have not already mentioned, I have received F8s from everyone. If someone has not received an F8 from me, please let me know.

    Also, I will have blocks heading home to Qbee, fryguymoore, carsey, and MegsAnn. Hopefully they will be in the mail Monday or Tuesday. :)

    I only have 9 blocks left. I can finally see the end in sight. Everyone's blocks are looking so wonderful.

    I found mine!!! Was thinking of doing something similar as well...however even before I can finish the 6" siggy swap myself I have to get more pens as the ones I got are the wrong size for writting on our fabric. I appeared to have purchased the .005 tips while I was home on leave and didn't try them at that time...OPPS! great idea and use of all those scraps:)

    How cool! I found mine :D But how did you get the signatures in the center blocks? Did you unsew the rail fence blocks?

    Qbee, these are nine patch blocks I made from everyones extra fabric. They will go between the siggies. I have not gotten the siggies yet. Sorry if I confused you.

    Pattis47...I'm glad you like your block! I love Laurel Birch so making it was fun for me although nothing fancy. :)
