gini:who's starching to death.
I think it might be my string pieced blocks. LOL I think I confused a comment you made about steam and starch. If I had steamed these suckers they would have only stretched more. My rotary cutter was responsible for the itty bitty pieces on my first blocks but I hadn't starched them. Does that count as murder? Don't tell the quilting police.
Mimi: Bonita:I see no problem with them. Thanks for your encouragement, Bonita. Were you riding on a horse while gazing at my blocks? The bias was killing me. These are not the ones I did first. No they're cut into itty bitty pieces. LOL Yes I was riding as fast as I could go. LOL Just kidding they are great.

Greg, I totally agree with everyone else...love your colors & your blocks look great.
Love your colors. I think the print is a floral but kinda looks like a fruit print also & all together they remind me ofa pack of fruit stripes gum...amazing colors & when you bite into a piece your mouth just pops....well, your colors look good enough to eat & I think if I bir into one it would pop in my mouth! I know I sound corny but I LOVE the bright colors.
Claudette, you did a great job on the costume. Thanks for sharing your picture with us.
Patti, what stunning blocks you have created! I agree with you, I don't know which is my favorite i like them both.
LOVE the red, white, & black!
Patti: Here's my two sets of craftsy blocks. I had started just with the ones with the green background, etc. but then decided it would be better with a light background, so started another set in blue. I don't know which are my favorite any more.

Patti, both are beautiful! My favorite is the one with the green background.

Mimi: I finally got around to my blocks for March. Don't know how I'm going to use this quilt but this set gave me some problems. I guess I won't be doing diagonal strip piecing for a while.

Your blocks look great Mimi.
I should have gone to a BC support group meeting today but I was in the mood to sew so elected to stay home and get my March blocks done. I have introduced more yellow in these scrappy blocks and hope it will be okay in the long run. I enjoyed making both of these blocks but will definitely use a paper foundation if I do the first block again as it is pretty heavy.
Love your blocks Marge. Nice work.
Kris:Love your blocks Marge. Nice work.
Thanks, Kris! It feels good to be caught up for a change.
Very pretty Marge, they look a bit like watercolors.
