Press, press, press, press.
Trim, trim, trim, trim.
It will be a grand total of 240 half-square triangles, when all is said and done...and mailed out!

Why did I pick this block?! Oh, well...! I spent some time reorganizing and tidying the sewing area yesterday so that will help inspire me.

240 HSTs! Oh CaroleJ, you should move to Tn. I will have a total of 120 HSTs. LOL

Had to work on house projects today so the blocks had to wait.

Hello, would it be a big problem if I dropped out of this exchange??? It just seems that I have so much going on right now that I didn't expect. I have been sick and running constantly back and forth to the doctor and in the middle of building a new house, trying to get it under roof before Winter hits. I just didn't realize I would be so busy. I hope this doesn't mess things up, if it does I will try to squeaze it in somewhere.

Kristie, the only problem will be that we would miss your blocks! We'll still have enough to swap, so that is not the problem.

I understand completely about being overwhelmed!

Take care of yourself first!

I'M DONE!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! Yippee
(see photo's of some under the Photo Topic)

I made 20, I hope that's right!

Had today off and after a quick trip to the bank I came home and sewed allllll afternoon! Felt GREAT to get something accomplised.
Besides finishing the blocks I got about 80% of the blocks done for My Mom's new bedspread/quilt. Check out Nine Patch Party in one of El's book (forget which one)--that's what I'm doing. Will photo it soon and show that off.

Will be mailing Fall Blocks to Cindyb soon

Good Nite All

My HSTs are all pressed and squared up! I stacked and pinned pairs yesterday, to stitch together and add on to the sides of the center squares.

One step at a time!
