These are just beyond stunning! They would all be gorgeous full-sized blocks, but to realize their true size makes my head spin.... :lol:
Absolutely wonderful; thanks so much for sharing with us! :thumbup: :thumbup:

Seeing yours made me remember I made a simple 9 patch alternating with applique bears in pretty pastels three years ago for my then new great grand-daughter. Sadly their home burned on Friday night and they have lost everything. I will have to get busy and make new quilts for my Lexie and her four step-siblings. Sorry to diverge, feeling a bit raw at moment,

jdavis and madamkelley, it is now Tuesday evening here in Adelaide, Aust. and I am back online. Thank you both for your thoughts re my grandaughters house fire. I probably shouldn't discuss it under this topic. I have a lot to learn about navigating the Board etc. and putting things in the right area. Thankfully the family, including the kitty cat are all ok. It was very traumatic for them and the young kiddies. Very little of their possessions were 'salvagable(?)' I think they are a little overwhelmed at how generous and helpful friends and total strangers have been to them. (it was on TV and in the newspapers). It will take some time to come to terms with for them, but they are alive and well and that is what is important.
Thank you, Jen Moore
