ANNOUNCING OFFICIALLY - 2005-2006 RCTQ Block-of-the-Month (February's Blocks)

This sounds like a lot of fun! Thanks so much Melissa! I haven't done a
BOM in a couple of years and I do like to do them as it is something
different and exciting each month. Count me in.

I think I will go with black and white. I've been collecting fabrics for
several months but didn't know what pattern to use.

I can't tell from all of this whether we are supposed to officially sign up.

Melissa, if you're keeping track: count me in!

Count me in too! Haven't decided what colors yet, but I've got the
pattern printed. I'm leaning towards a red, white and blue cause they
make such pretty sampler quilts and I've always wanted one.

are 2" finished and 50 PP sub blocks that are 4" finished

Gosh, thought it was block of the month not block of the day!

I do like your colours (and the QI)

Boy am I in trouble now....

DH: "What are you doing with those bins again?"
me: Looking for something.
DH: But you already have fabric out.
me: I know, just looking through.
DH: You just did laundry yesterday, what are you doing now?
me: just the misc. that didn't get picked up yesterday. (have to find
something to throw in with these quarters so it doesn't look like I am
just washing fabric.....)
DH: WHAT are you doing now? I thought you were going to go back to
bed, you're sick, you need to get some rest before kids come home from
school?
me: I am resting. This is not strenuous and it is very relaxing to
just sit and sew. I'll be fine.
DH: What IS that?! You're making another block! This is different.
This isn't what you were working on already! Is it?

me: no. At the speed of light and explanation bursts forth about the
group online I told him about - you know? and they're going to do a
BOM and I want something to do just for fun, for me and I have these
black print quarters that I was going to use for your quilt but you
didn't want prints, you just wanted solid black and tan and you are
always saying I don't ever do anything that's just for me, so......

GOT HIM!
(I'm sure everyone here has heard this conversation before....?)

Mine is/are going to be Christmassy - have a pile of Christmas fabrics
I won in the Embroiderers Guild Raffle and I already had quite a lot
so it seems a good way of using some of them up. Will start with the
pieced one but know I will end up doing the applique too 'cos I like
applique. So perhaps two big Christmassy lap quilts - then we can have
one each while we eat our mincepies the Christmas after next! (and I
promise I will finish them!)

But then there's the blue Debbie Munn 'set' I've just found ......

Sally

thanks! I will admit that I did nothing else all day and that the kids were
at their dad's house and I had done a LOT of prep work the evening before so
all I had to do was sew, sew, sew!
