    I'm loving your color scheme, Janice.

    So far, my favorite block is the one she calls "Plait".

    I took my little gems to Quilt meeting today and show-and-telled them. No sewing today. I spent several hours poking about the local flea market, and tonight I'm working on GD2's sweater.

    I found a picture of my quilt, though this was taken before it was quilted. I started it in 2016 and finished in 2017. This is one of the few quilts that I still am not ready to part with.

    I'm also showing a picture of the first center I made. I didn't stick with my scrappy plan and decided afterwards that it didn't go well with the rest. So I remade the center, and then took the first center apart and made more blocks to go with it. The center flower of the smaller quilt is an alternate block for one of the four corners. I felt it was too different from the other three so didn't use it, but this way I did make every single block for the challenge.

    Wow, what masterpieces, Cathy! I love the one with the iris center-- the colors are so soothing.

    Macybaby, thanks for sharing the pix of your gorgeous quilt. It would be incredibly difficult to part with it after so much time, effort and love.

    Here are the 7 remaining blocks from 1/25 to 1/31. Now to move onto February. Btw, my blocks need to be pressed better but they all hit the mark of 3-1/2, thank goodness. Still need work on the tiny hsts and I guess I’ll get that in a big way coming up with an early Feb block. Thanks for looking.

    I found this pic on Facebook this morning. It's another idea of what to do with 3" squares, if you don't want to make the whole 365 sampler.

    Terrific blocks, SBG. I’m falling behind in February although I’ve got a handful done. I’ve gotten sidetracked with my Boom fabric. Oops!

    A friend finished hers in 2023 and entered it in the NYS fair, where it won first place. It is absolutely beautiful, all done in blue/white/grey batiks.

    Enjoy your journey!
