Got my notice also-can’t wait to get started. Straightening my sewing area today!

Being new to Boom too, I am glad to hear it. I adore this light blue quilt. I think it would be fun to do a two tone quilt in future blocks.

It is fun to see the block being called out that were made by other Boomers.

Building a quilt is very gratifying, but sometimes tedious work. I love doing it. But just making blocks is like a new toy everyday. It’s the waiting for your squishy to arrive that makes me edgy! After I finished my first boom, I felt like I had been to a school semester of block making with 20 or so of the kindest, bestest teachers. It was great.

Here’s my first Boom quilt. I only made one block! We’ll take good care of you Pamela! ❤️

Adorbs! So sweet and it is fun to see this cute print cut up and put in a block.

It is the Smoky Mountain block by Judy Martin.

I look forward to playing with paper dolls again. :) Can you say where your block is? It is fun to see the blocks and ID them to the boomer. Thanks

Jayne glad that bubble wrap got you safely to the post office and home safely. :thumbup:

GramE I see my block in your quilt

That is good news. I hope the side effects will be minimal for you and that you will be successful in your treatment.

Pre surgery and pre chemo appts. tomorrow and then surgery on Thursday to install the chemo port. Radiation and chemo will start Monday morning at 10 a.m. then everyday for 6 weeks. Got my hair cut today, very short, just in case figure I'm ahead of the game a little and am saving the septic system.
Love everyone's fabric, just wish I could play. Your block's will have a very special meaning to me ladies, please know how much I appreciate your kindness.
LJ and Kass hope you are feeling better, I'm sending very positive thoughts and prayers your way. I'm done for tonight so will try to post in a day or two. If any of you are in another swap that I have had to drop, etc. please feel free to update them for me....I would appreciate it. Thank you in advance
