Post your Center block here, so all the members can see the before product. This will be the only pictures shared until   your Top is returned to you.....this is not mandatory, but it is fun to see what everyone is doing. You can also tell us your vision for it, what colors and style you would like on it.  Puts your teammates ahead of the game, helps them get ready with ideas and fabrics!!  Enjoy

Candis ,I like this thanks ,here is my center ,I just have alittle bit more to do to it and it will be finished . Candis says I need to put my vision here gee I guess I'd llike to stay with the colors in the center , flowers in border are good , even little teapots or cups would be good . I'l really not that picky other them the colors,I hope this helps

Here is my center block.! I want something with a vintage,1930's look and feminine feel. I like the white background with pastels. There are a couple little mistakes, but I can live with them!! I cannot wait to see the beauty that comes back to me after you ladies work your magic!

Merry Christmas everyone!    Erin

Barbara, I have a collection of teapots and stopped collecting because of space. I have small ones, large one, some I made in pottery class, etc. but have never make a quilt one. So I like your center. Also, are those handkerchiefs on the table and  in the corners?

Lillie- I couldn't decide on anything so I thought that if I used a lot of colors it would give my group a lot of options and it will come home with a scrappy feel to it too. I am excited and wonder if I will see Dresden plates, Grand mothers fans, Sunbonnet Sue, Hearts, Flowers, bows?????????....it will be just like Christmas in April!! :)

:D  Barbara I will be happy with whatever comes back to me and with whoever works on my quilt!  My thoughts are that anything feminine would be cute in 30's fabrics...cupcakes, kittens, hex flowers, yo-yo's, picket fence, birds........ I could go on and on and on... I don't want to hinder anyone's creative process, just saying that I am anxious to see what others see when they work on my quilt!
