    Hubby doesn't respond heartily enough to all I've accomplished, so I am showing all of you. :lol: :roll: :lol:

    Not pictured are the 85 watercolor floral log cabin squares waiting on the ironing board for their next strip... still not too big; some have four strips, others six.

    Here are several black and white squares ready to add to what's already done

    This one was made from extra pieces. But, hey--the beauty of this B+W is I can call all the shots, one square at a time. Right, Yvonne? :lol:

    These are made with Marcia fabrics!! :D
    I just couldn't cut up the kids one any smaller, so I used 3" strips...the biggest of my squares. There are small strips left over to use somewhere.

    I thought this fabric from Marcia looked awesome as 6" blocks all by itself. I saved all the rest for extra pieces.

    And I finished making these 3.5" squares, (59 of them) from leftover pieces from making Flying Geese squares for Mark's CW quilt. I'm going to make him a wall hanging for work. I got the idea from a quilt book I saw once about quilts in cubicles (but he has more room that that :wink: ). He has to find out the best size, then I'll sew them together. Glad I kept them!

    Thanks for looking! I feel better now. :D :lol:

    Well, you sure were busy today. Love the B/W and the leftovers from the CW are just great. I had big plans for today, but sort of drifted - so I'm glad somebody accomplished something!

    PatriceJ--not all the 3.5" squares were done today--I just had to pin and sew the last seam in about 3/4 of them... but it took a long time to trim those babies. :roll:
