blocks have begun arriving

I'm starting this blog about our quilt block exchange to inspire us all in this wonderful undertaking. My plan is to show you pictures of the blocks as they come in, then pictures of the quilts-in-progress, culminating with our quilt show in July! Louise Trew is the first one to get her finished blocks to Peggy. I'll try to get over to Peggy's to take pictures this week and then I'll post them here. Kathleen King's blocks arrived at my house in Friday's mail, so here are some pictures -- they're even more beautiful in person! close-up of flower (embroidered) I'm off to sew... I'll post more inspiration very soon, so check back again! Please feel free to post YOUR comments here, too!! love, annie

I can't wait to see all of the blocks! They are as unique as each of us. :o)

Guess what! That block deadline is fast approaching and I am ready to receive your finished blocks at any time. The deadline is December 31st - just 5 short days away. How is everyone doing? Will you be making the deadline?
