    Mooving right along OK ...working in an environment that suits you will also give you inspiration.. Ideas come to mind all day long when your surrounded by color, patterns and such...That's why I love going to work every once in awhile. I'm tempted to finish several of the blocks..I'll be following this journey of yours and maybe you'll inspire me

    OK, I love your blue blocks, mine was purple and the pony quilt was all blue & beige. My colors of course blue, blue, blue. I haven't finished the pony quilt yet, need to put it together and start quilting it.

    Oh this will be interesting to follow along! I don't think I have seen a FWS done in just one family of color. The fabrics you have picked out are very pretty. I too have one planned using a bunch of CW repro scraps I was gifted. But that quilt is way down on the bucket list. I look forward to watching your progress on the blue FWS.

    I have a lot of blue fabric too. I might have to join you one of these days. :-) I don't have that book, but I could use the 1930's FWS book again.

    I think it looks so good but I agree with oksewglad about the broken dishes block.
