Red - yours is really coming along looking very 1930's. I really like that look. The applique blocks are so cute.

majik47 despite her pleading I wouldn't share the list with Tara today...nor would Buttercup and I let her purchase vintage blocks to "cheat with"

kidding aside Buttercup and I enjoyed hanging out with Tara today!

I'm sorry I haven't learned everyone's first names.

Redsaltbox...love the 1930's fabric. It makes me happy!

WeSignificant...Very pretty maple leaf! I'm very partial to purple.

Here's my first applique block. I enlarged the "Circle of Life" block from a back issue of F&P's Love of Quilting. So glad to have one of the appliques done! Two more to go and I'll be got up!

Redsaltbox, your blocks are so neat! Your appliques are precious, too! 1930's is a great look.
We, how pretty!!! All this purple is making me drool!! I LOVE purple!
Grandma2Davey/Carol - I love this block! I've never seen it before..and I usually read the F&P mags. It is AWESOME!
Well, I finished my maple leaf blocks and have started on my next applique...I don't know if that's the next block, but maybe I can get a "head start"! I do needle turn, so it takes me longer.

Thank you all for the nice comments. You all keep me inspired and motivated!

Joanne...it was in March/April 2006. Theirs was done in 1930's with red sashing. I fell in love with it and made 150 of the 3 inch circles. I thought I'd make a full size quilt. That's as far as I got, but maybe this will be the year to finish it! Are your adorable snowmen from the Comfort and Joy book by Mary Hickey? DD has been wanting me to make the wall hanging. I can't wait to see the rest of your blocks!

I didn't have my grandchildren today so I did another applique block. Only one more and I'll be caught up!

Oops, I forgot to stitch around the circles on two of the flowers!
