Littlebit ~ What a wonderful block, you did a great job. What a beautiful quilt this will be when you are finished. Isn't it fun to be able to use up your stash and make something so pretty. Now I really want to make one.
Happy stitching!!

Thanks Evie and Debi :) I decided on a black background because I bought a bolt of 10 yards at Joanns for $9.99 after Thanksgiving, the blocks measure 16 1/2 unfinshed and I wanted to make sure that I had enough :)

Littlebit, it is just beautiful... you should enter it in that baby lock contest, unless it is too big? I really like it

Thanks Chriss, but it is not my original pattern, someone else designed it :) But I do have a block that I need to get started on that I will be entering into the contest :)

Thanks for the encouragment from everyone, still no luck.

Littlebit, can you make me one?LOL Your block is absolutely beautiful, looks just like the one on the website except for the black background. The black really makes those colors pop.

Off to put on some potatos to boil.

*FROWN*



*****SCREAMIN********

I was happily quilting away. Inside of Jeff's quilt ALL done, so around the inside borders I go. I finnished <or so I thought> turned the quilt around to admire my work..............



Yeah you prolly know what happened. I stomped down stairs and muttered under my breath "I want that new sewing machine that let you know when your bobbin is empty"

Aint that aweful to have that happen? TWO whole sides NOT quilted. Argrrrrrrrrrrr..........

Now should I go play around on my computer? Play Pgo???? I got SO bored playing that one. It is fun but SO non-productive.

*T*

Hey Dew Dew :) - I really liked her colors and I think I obviously have to many fabrics if I can really almost match her fabrics - pretty bad, huh?

I'm sorry Susanna that stinks.

I won't tell you how much time I spent putting a 16" pillow for the Quillow together. I don't think I will every be able to whip something out and have it turn out and look good. Oh well, I do enjoy, usually. LOL
