I have my blocks all washed and ironed (UGH!!) and cut. Will sew tomorrow. I used a fabric with blackberries and raspberries and some other kind of berries for my center and a raspberry-colored border. I think I'm going to make a spring tablerunner out of what's left.
These blocks are sooooo cute ... but, but, but ... I am trying to catch up on all my projects ...

Wasie.. Thank you for the temptation (really), but but but...I'm working horrid hours the next 6 weeks...and I have mucho to finish before Christmas! 2 quilts, and a wall hanging...and one binding to put it on. I'm also active in our local "Therapy Blocks" group which is basically HB's with a few different twists.
I do appreciate the offer...but...I'm always watching. Yaaaaaaaaaa never know!

Hello ladies, I am on here so very briefly to say taht I am so very sorry to bow out of the 2 swaps that I am in the other is the Christmas blocks due to Ike, I live in downtown Houston and was hit pretty hard have gotten the power restored and thankful for that on yesterday however there are other things that are damaged and will be like that for some time due to waiting for insurance adjusters and all the other things that comes with that. We are providing for my in;aws who are still without power, if for some reason I can see my way through before the deadline and manage to get back on here then I will let the leaders know, again I am so very very sorry this is something that I hate to really do, at the time it is beyond something that I have control over. Thanks you so very much for understanding and again please forgive me!!!!
MICHELLE!!! Sweetie, I'm so glad you're ok!!! And all your family. Things can be replaced, people can't. And don't apologize, you can't do a blessed thing about hurricanes! Not your fault - AT ALL!!! Look after your family and home - nothing is more important than that.
I do hope we see you back here soon, though! I'll miss your sweet comments until then!
