Finished my blocks tonight......here's a look. I chose the mini-bowtie block from quilterscache. The bowtie was the first quilt that I made & finished.

Mequilter, love the colors. What? You're finished? !!!!!

I thought today I'd get more done but things got in the way. Hope I can get more done tomorrow.

Those are really nice, me! You did a great job on them, too!

Are we making 20 blocks or 22 since more then 20 people signed up?

I love the block and all the pretty fall colors.

Wow Me, those look great!

Here's what Cindy said about the blocks:

"The more the merrier on this one - everyone will make 20 blocks, and receive 20 back!"

I've got my flying geese almost finished. All I have to do is use the ruler on them and square them up. 80 geese in all! Then I get to cut the center blocks and put them together. I'm doing the Cyclone block that's a free pattern on this site.

Wow, Evie. I sure can't complain about haveing to square up only 60 HSTs.
Geese or HST, you and CarolJ have more than mine. Whew! Glad I picked the Tn. block.

Got 3 more done today, nine done, 11 to go....almost half done. : )

Well, I've got my 80 geese done. They are 4 X 8. Now I need to find a center fabric that I like. The fabric that I bought just looks yucky! You know what this means don't you? Yeap, another trip to the LQS! A quilter's got to do what a quilter's got to do. :^)

What I might do is "audition" several fabrics on here and take a poll.

I am still waiting for my fabric to arrive. I will have to do a trial block to make sure it is not going to take me too long so that I can get done in time for the send out date. Hopefully my fabric will be here today or tomorrow so I can get started.

Monday Update

Have 4 blocks left to go! Took a couple pictures yesterday and will post later. This morning I have to get ready to work late shift 1-9 (and I SO don't want to go to work!) I want to get them done so badly, so that I can go on the next project. I'm trying to hard to stay focused on one thing at a time, but it's really hard, when I have beautiful fabric all over the place. I want to play with it all!

Have a great day everybody
