I'm still under the doctor's stay at home orders so hubby Bill had to go into town today to pick up a few things and I told him he could go to the fabric store and pick out something he liked. I told him it was for the Boom swap again because I was going to do it this round. Didn't know if he would go or not....but he did and came home with a beautiful fall fabric. I'll take a pic tomorrow and post here, he did good!!
I also have a bunch of bright FQ's that I'm very tempted to use and make a rainbow type quilt. That must mean I need to do both groups. Check in tomorrow, decide for sure on groups and send my choice to Janice. Have a good night everyone

So excited to see Jaba, Libster and GramE back again. Ladies you were missed. Hello Again to Bugaroo, TG and Julia
We will be heading to Texas for a month and not bringing a sewing machine. It will be time for us to familiarize ourselves with the city and community. That means I will only be joining in the 3 month group. AND I won’t be sending bright fabric.

Good morning, Boomers! I received another 5 emails overnight so we've got a nice start on the groups. I've replied to everyone so far. If I missed you, please don't hesitate to let me know.
This morning I'm going to work on the binding for my Boom 24 quilt. Usually I enjoy the binding but this round I'm struggling. I've made a commitment to myself to do 24 inches a night but I think I'll try to get a jump start on it and see if i can eke out a bit more. I'm soooo ready to move on. What are you all working on?

I'm working on that same round robin.... and now trying to get my fabrics out and cut for the Boom swap. I also agreed to make two memory quilts for a friend, for Christmas. Her son was killed in a car wreck 3 years ago and she has his clothing for me to use. So I have plenty to do before this Boom starts.
It's good to see everyone who's joining this swap!
