Welcome, Duckling! I was wondering if/when you were going to show up! What a nice surprise.
We aren't pros here either, just fanatics. We love fabric and quilts. You will find all kinds of skill levels here. You'll fit right in!

Sharon, I saw that on Julie's block and told her and she's going to fix it. It's interesting how often a picture shows up a flaw when you don't see it in person!
Hey, Duckling! Nice to see you here! That's a cool idea you have for doing each month seasonally. I think you are the first one that thought of that. If you don't have any Valentine fabric, I have some I can give you!

Just wanted to make you awestruck. I was at Goodwill and got this stash of fabric - 14 yds - for $6.09 ! The top fabric is flannel, a bit of a shadow because you can see my cat's foot, and the rest was all new cotton fabric!!

Great deal, Duckling! I see a lot of good blenders in there. I have never found fabric at Goodwill, but I do see it at estate sales sometimes, when I get to go.
Your quilt is sweet! I really need to do something with my orphan blocks, too.

Played with the placement of the floral triangle on the white triangle until I got a workable result. One flying geese unit took some serious abuse from multiple assembles, disassembles, and reassembles. This method of making flying geese isn’t very forgiving. There was nothing to trim except the dog ears.

That's pretty, Bev. I was thinking of using the signature part of the block to write in the name and date of the BOM, right there on the front of my quilt.
I'm seriously wondering if I'll be able to hang in there with this BOM until the last block. I'm so impatient and a whole month is a long time to wait for one more block.
