Look What You’ve Done!

I’m so impressed with you guys in this quilt-along so far. You’ve been so kind to send me pictures of your finished blocks. I absolutely LOVE seeing all the different colorways.

I just have to show them to everyone.

Here’s Kay’s Block 1. She’s using a Sulky variegated thread for at least the blue part, and I love the way it made her French knot flower look. I love the soft palette of this one.Here’s Kathy’s Block 1. I’m loving the purple and orange together. You can see a little snippet of her fabric at the edges that she’s pulling her colors from. Fabulous!Here’s Diane’s Block 1. The bright blue is wonderful! I haven’t seen Diane’s fabric choices, but this is sure making me wonder what they are! It can only be gorgeous, if this is any indication.Here’s Stephanie‘s Block 1. She and I must be twins separated at birth — we’re crushing on the same color palette lately. She added some yellow into hers. She’s also posted lots more photos and close-up shots of her block on her own blog. You can click HERE to see those.

Thanks, ladies, for sending me the pictures. I can hardly wait to see what you do with the rest of the blocks, and what your finished projects turn out like!

If you’ve finished a block and want to send me pictures, I’ll be thrilled to post some more. I know Marge has one almost done, in gorgeous colors, and my friend, Rose Marie, is doing bluework on hers in the most vivid blue imaginable. I also know my sister is making one, but she won’t show me hers — she’s being all secretive and crap — makes me wanna beat her.

I’ll be back with more news tomorrow, and possibly even that Alternate Project for Block 2 that I promised a while back. Block 3 is scheduled to come out next Monday, too, so all this should keep you busy! I know it’s keeping ME hopping!
