    Thanks for all the kind words. I am ok with the pace of 1 per week....I am working on other quilts, and this gives me a change up so i don't get bored, but still I am making progress. If we only got them once per month, I would be very frustrated, and unhappy.

    Lovely blocks Connie, Mary and Jane, I really like having the weekly blocks and look forward to Monday's !
    Here is my Flying Churn Dash block 8. In the meantime I am making bags for future presents.

    I'm swooning over everyone's fabrics. This is inspiring me to concentrate on buying more Civil War fabrics. There's something so fascinating about them. They really take you back in time.

    Another gorgeous Christmas block, Dotty... your piecing is so beautiful. Sharp points! Would love to see your bags, too, if you care to share them.

    joe'smom, it took me a while to 'warm up' to Civil War fabrics, but now I love them. They really do connect you with history.

    These are the pretty Christmas fabrics I ordered from Thousands of Bolts. Got them a few days ago. Not bad for $4.95 a yard... all are quilt shop brands.

    Thank you Mary, here is a couple of photo's of one of the bags, ( which is called A Zippered, Lined Tote Bag ) and is a free tutorial by Debbie Shore.

    Dotty, I love your fabrics. How much did you get of each one? How does it come from there, FQ or half yards or??
    I especially like that red one.
