What are the dimensions for the blocks you are working on now? I love the blocks and it looks like something even I could manage. If its not too much trouble, can I get this information or tell me where I can find it, so I too can begin this? Thanks for all you do for the quilting community and specifically for me. You give me hope and inspiration.Deborahhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/10090707022946857442noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-13569819.post-36856930706163369462012-11-25T22:36:26.599-05:002012-11-25T22:36:26.599-05:00I was recently making nighties for my Mum & pl...I was recently making nighties for my Mum & planned to use an aqua plaid (we call it gingham in Australia) that I bought years ago but knew I had a couple of metres left....I searched thru my whole stash more than once - I was soooo frustrated & eventually used different fabric - the aqua plaid was found days later (sheepishly coy) on the recliner bside my sewing table....waiting to be included in a rainbow ticker tape quilt [url]http://www.stitchedincolor.com/2011/06/bottled-rainbows-on-my-bed.html[/url] too many projects in mind to keep track of my ideasPatchworksmileyhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/10782759737477358534noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-13569819.post-88158053931957168882012-11-25T22:24:14.149-05:002012-11-25T22:24:14.149-05:00This is going to be a very pretty quilt!~ You will...This is going to be a very pretty quilt!~ You will find them.

But sweetie...it was 2 whole weeks ago when you were sewing them on "quiltcam". That is a LONG time ago in your world!!!<br />They must be under a quilt or some fabrics. Or perhaps under what is on the design wall???<br />Hope you find them.<br />I am cutting for another quilt I designed yesterday in EQ7 (love this program) to be a L&E for this mystery. I am using 2" strips. This is my least numerous strip size. I am ready to do some major cutting to fix this deficiency.<br />XOXOXOXO SubeeSubeeSewshttps://www.blogger.com/profile/14952143788729940825noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-13569819.post-89932742743508686042012-11-25T19:32:35.701-05:002012-11-25T19:32:35.701-05:00I was watching when you made those, on Quilt Cam, ...I was watching when you made those, on Quilt Cam, a few weeks ago.
