Just a reminder that I am a recreational quilter so it is far from perfect. As you might be able to see my iron ate one of bear's paws so I have a lame bear now, but that is okay with me. Can't wait to see others.hope the pictures comes out.

Just being nosey from Gp 2, love this row, and was thinking, if you want to divide up the red bears paws , a little lead work ie. bias binding over seams would break it up, especially if you could get something similar in color to the bears.
I also like the fact you're leaving the lame bear in, gives him/her some personality. :thumbup:

Thanks. I was thinking of what they use in the stained glass quilts but contrasting binding might work just as well. Thanks for the idea.

OK should have probibly ask this sooner, do any of you want to name this group, throw out any ideas you have.
We have Classic blocks or sampler style, flower - Alaska related, on the farm, mellow in red and ivory, bearpaw and log cabin woodsy themed. Sounds like a group of country style Quilters.

Here's another question does any one mind if I include sashing for between the blocks? I'll measure, cut and can send out separately when needed. Let me know. Thanks

I don't mind sashing - I might do the same.
Will be thinking about a name for our group...

No, go a head and send out sashing with the instructions! I will be thinking of a name as well, but I am not very good at things like that. you said something about "country quilters" That would work for me. Or "Coast to Coast and In Between" Just kidding on that one. :)
