I've been sewing up gifts ( no peeks yet), working on getting a top together and working on F8 blocks. I thought I'd tell you about my F8 blocks today. 18 of the ladies on the HGTV quilting board each sent a F8 of their chosen fabric to the other participants. Then we got busy making blocks for each other. :-) It has been a lot of fun!~ Seeing the different fabric pieces and trying to decide what block to make. I've made Christmas blocks, and summer blocks and 30's blocks and every thing in between. Unfortunately I didn't think to take photo's of the blocks I made for the other ladies. :-/ BUT! I do have a photo of the blocks I have received so far. I sent out the tan batik and asked for blocks in ocean colors (a favorite theme of some of my quilty friends on the message board ;-) LOL) Yes, I was copying a previous swap. :-) Everyone knows I love stars, and I am just thrilled with the blocks I've received! :-) Aren't they beauties?
I hope you are getting in some sewing fun too!
Until next time~
Happy stitchin'!!

There sure is a lot of beauty and interest in these blocks. I've fully enjoyed myself looking at this. How fun! Good to know what you've been up to, too. You always make me smiley!!!
My favs are top right hand one and bottom middle - they are all beautiful!!!! And ocean colours..... good idea. I am attracted to those colours and find them so calming, exciting, invigerating and magical!!!!
