Still sending the indigo I was just reminding Terri how many times I sent that other and I still have more :shock: hahahaha

Also if anyone could hand piece a complete boom it's you!

You have to know how to use it... I loved it before they started selling all the advertising. Now I just use it to store my saved images. I have a lot of time invested there and thousands of images (ideas) that are all categorized. :thumbup:

I think when it comes to hand piecing an entire boom Pat (GramE) would sew me under the table.

Not sure about that, but I might give you a strong challenge. 3 months is 12 weeks, one a week, I could maybe do 12, but 19 or 20 is faster than the turtle speed I move at. I considered it before I signed up this time. I considered it because I thought it was going to be a small group. Problem is I always pick the hardest blocks to hand sew. 80 pieces per block! I’ve been working on how to get a 12 1/2” Block out of the diamonds and hexagons i’m Currently working with. :thumbup:

And my DH might like some supper occasionally in those 12 weeks. ;)

Those are so pretty, GramE... both the 'innies' and the 'outties'. :D

Thank you SewBiz. The innie fabric is the busiest fabric i’ve Ever used. Both are from the same piece.

Since my first package is somewhere between AZ and GA and who knows if it will show up, I am sending another batch of F8's. Yes, I have a stash that these two have been waiting a long time to be used.
You will get a F8 of one color and a swatch of the other to help match colors. Basically looking for a Red White and blue.

GramE love your diamonds. The fussy cutting is perfect.

Billi I do remember your pretty floral fabric. Thanks for reminding me you sent it multiple times.

Great fabs, TG. I would love to make a red, white and blue.

Smart to send another batch, tho I hate it for you. Priority goes very quickly in the right direction, but when it's sent back it's low priority and takes forever... often by the scenic route.

I thought you ladies might like to see our little hatchlings in the garage. A sparrow or wren builds a cool nest in our garage every spring/summer. She had 4 eggs this time and the baby birdies hatched about two days ago. Aren't they cute? Wish I had something to drop into those little beaks, but that's the momma's job.

SewBiz, we have had momma Robins teaching the babes to dig worms all week. So much fun!
