The 2 that were previously unpictured!

I've been meaning to add these for awhile, but just hadn't gotten around to it.
Here are 2 blocks that I've gotten in the mail that aren't on here yet.



This first one I got quite awhile ago from Jess.  It matches the other blocks so well! 







And this one I got last week from Kennedy along with her beautiful fabric that I can't wait to work with. I love this one too. I really can't wait to see what everything looks like 
together. 


I'm still waiting on 2 more blocks, I'll show you them when I get them!

Block 6 or 7


I don't know what number we are on but here is my really late November block. I hope you like it Jacki!

I tried something I have always wanted to try by doing smaller pieces and using four fabrics in one block... I think it turned out ok but I don't know what you will think.

Goodness it was hard but hopefully I will do better next time.

I hope you all send me extra fabric! :)

So, this was the 1st time I ever quilted. First I cut all the pieces to make this block
And then I realized the block was too big and I couldn't figure out how to rescale it. So I made this pattern insteadIt took me a couple times of adding an extra row here and there but it's finally bigger than 12x12It's actually not even on the sides (it zig-zags) and is longer than 12 1/4 inches but I figure you can cut it down Jacki (and I don't trust myself right now)

It's been fun and I've learned a lot so hopefully the next one goes much better!

Jess!

Just wanted to let you know that I got your block in the mail today and I love it! I will take a picture of it & post it either tonight or tomorrow for everyone to see. It's great.  I feel like you guys had a secret meeting & decided which colors to use- they all look perfect together! Thanks!

Block 4

I had a little bit of a hard time with this. I don't usually have to do much measuring, so trying to get it to be 12x12 was a little tough. But I think for my first real try, I did ok. I hope you like it Jacki and that any goofs I made you can handle. I will be mailing it soon! Kim

Block 3



I was worried this would be too busy, but I think it turned out well. Everyone can see the star shape in the middle, right?

If anyone is interested for their own projects, you can find the pattern for this here. I think I am going to do this as a whole quilt eventually. I hope you like it, Jacki!

Block 2 =)

This is my first shot at circles, but it's something I've wanted to try for a while. It was definitely a little challenging for me. I pieced the larger circle and appliqued the smaller. My inspiration came partly from the flowered fabric...see the little circles that look kinda like spiderwebs? Hope you like it Jacki! -Heather

First November block is in!

I got this today from Dominique and I'm super impressed.  It gets me so excited to see what the quilt is going to look like when it all comes together. I really love the pink & white fabric that you added in.  It is beautiful. 

You'll have to bear with me here, our digital camera is currently out of commission, so I just used the Photo Booth on the computer.  Not the greatest quality pictures, but I wanted to be sure that everyone got a look at this!

Question

Hey,

I was just wondering if we are limited to the fabric sent out? I love your choice, Jacki, but I was wondering if I had a little bit of fabric I thought would compliment, could I add it into my block or should I stick with your two choices?

wow!

Jacki, I want to be you when I grow up! I love the quilt you made for your friend! I got your fabric last night and I already have a bunch of ideas. I can't wait to start.

I have to apologize to my exchange buddy. You're October gift is going in the mail to you on Monday. I am not going to bed till I finish it today. It's all cut out and ready to sew together, but I kinda got sidetracked with good news. My husband and I just found out we're expecting our first child. So it's been a crazy couple of weeks. But I promise, it will be in the mail first thing monday morning. I hope you like it!!!
