The blocks are going to be so hard to let go of, they are all so beautiful. These blocks are going to make somre really beautiful wall quilts, I hope that everyone will be happy with what I select for them.

We have 3 more ladies that are busily working on their blocks and will have them here as soon as possible. To those that are still out there, please do not stress, these blocks are worth waiting for.

Ann, thanks!! I worried about them - doing them on 2 sewing machines that I'm not familiar with and all!

BTW, I used water soluable stabilizer on the backs. I like that better than the fusibles, because it leaves the blocks not as stiff. So, gals, if you use a squirt bottle of water, or steam on the blocks from me, they should be fine. (Except the one that I did by hand, and then my shoulder gave out).

Cindy, I never thought about using the water soluble stabalizer for machine applique. I have been using steam a seam and I really like how it turns out, but I will have to do that stablizer sometime just to try it out.

I'm getting there! Hope to have them in the mail by Tuesday, since Monday is a holiday. This will give me the weekend to finish them up!

I'll post pictures when I'm done.

I've mailed the teapots to SewSew. Thanks everyone for letting me join and giving me extra time to complete them.

The old computer that is set up to download pictures with is acting up. As soon as DH fixes the problem, I will post pictures of them.

Hey, I figured out the problem. So here are my teapots. I hope you like them. Please don't look too closely at the stitching!
