Hi Everyone!

First, the photo posting problem is due to excessive photos and posts on our forum...we will be pruning old stuff away on March 10th and that will get us back in the photo posting business again!

Second, Block #3 for March has just been posted! You can view it here:

It is one of my favorite blocks called "Crown of Thorns"! I hope you like it!

Great block Kim I also love the Crown of Thorns Block. I love the way this BOM is shaping up! Going to do some shopping next week at The Painted Pony Quilt Shoppe in LaPorte, Texas. It's a great Quilt Shoppe.

Thank you, Kim, for posting the March Block. It is beautiful!

Update on my personal progress with this BOM:
I started this quilt in January with some Christmas fabric which I had gotten on sale in December and some fabric left from another project. Although I liked the way the block came out, when I went to do the February block I realized that there were several different prints in this fabric line that I had which were not going work well with many of these sampler blocks. So I found a better two block quilt pattern for this fabric and went through my stash and in search of new fabric for the Somewhere In Time BOM. I will make a pillow or table topper out of the January block.

I also realized I was really wanted something light, floral and spring. I found a beautiful large Northcott floral for the border and a smaller floral in the same line for the blocks. I had a green in my stash that matched well for the block borders, and I found a pink and lavender ombre tone on tone and a small print for some the block accents. I am using a white tone-on-tone floral scroll fabric from my stash and had to find another piece online to have enough for the quilt before I could start This fabric is in the mail to me. Although this does not show up well on my not so good photograph, here are my new fabrics:

I hope to be starting over with the January block later this weekend, if all goes according to the quilting plan.

Happy Quilting! <3 Pat

HI,
Beautiful fabric .

I haven't started yet. Have my fabric picked out. Just wanted to finish something else first. And it looks like I will be finished with it by the end of this week. I hope. I like Kim's patterns.

Well, I have my March block all done, but since we cant add photos to the site at the moment, here's a link to my album on Q&N and you can see it there Had to get this out of the way so I don't have something distracting me from that mystery quilt at the retreat

BC BOM March Block

Your March Block is just beautiful, Jenn!

The rust fabric certainly is a good choice to bring out the warm colors in the focus fabric. This quilt is going to be just gorgeous! Pat

Jenn, I've saved your photo for when we can post to the Albums! I love your fabrics those colors just have a wow factor!

Hi, Trina! Thanks. I did not get to work one these blocks, yet, either, as I am also finishing something up. Hopefully, this week .... <3 Pat

Jenn - your block is great. I still love how dramatic the fabrics are. It's going to be one gorgeous quilt!

After staring at my existing Jan and Feb blocks for the past month, I decided to swap that fabric again. I think this is the right combination finally. The January block is better, but the February block really shows the difference. I think I'm ready to move on to the March block.

I feel your pain! I made the January block 3 different ways before I settled on the final fabric placement. After that one it got easier to do the next ones, and I didn't have to redo them as I could picture them in my head alot easier.

I'm really excited at the way this one is turning out. Cant wait for the rest of it now!!
