Bit of this and a bit of that

I started thinking of how to use these blocks today.  Wendy had sent a fair bit of leftover fabrics with these blocks and I am keen to do something with it before it gets absorbed into the rest of the donated fabrics or mistakenly used for another project.
 I spent a bit of time cutting and I have a plan but this is all I am going to show you!  Lots of 4 1/2 inch squares and not so many 4 1/2 x 5 1/2 inch rectangles.  You will just have to wait and see!  Hee Hee.
On other news I had a wonderful email from Karen telling me she has posted me some batting.  I can't tell you how exciting it is to get an email from someone that I don't know at all offering support.  It is a real validation that what I am doing is worthwhile.  Thanks so much Karen.

I have also had some emails promising to send some nine patches for the Block of the Month!  Yay!  They should soon be here and I will be so excited to show you in a post.  AND so excited to get started on the quilt or quilts!  Exciting!

Big day of layering quilts tomorrow - no idea how many we will get done but there will be three of us working on them so you never know!  I am really looking forward to getting them quilted and bound!

Till next time.....keep spreading the word and happy stitching!
