While I was digging around in the Bill bin, I found a dozen 12" blocks from one of those swappy kinds of things where you send out a focus fabric and people each make a block and return it. I put them up on the wall and some went together better than others did; one was really way too bright to play with the rest of them, so I took him down and took him apart and will replace the very vivid orange with something a little quieter. I think the rest of them will do well together after that, and I believe I'll try to get a top assembled out of them this summer.
Back to the L-E project, however. I've got a big Rubbermaid tub of CW pieces, mostly smaller than a FQ and a smaller tub of CW shirtings and backgrounds. I've always liked the cactus pot block (Diana, that link is for you!) and am making it super scrappy in the eight-inch size. I've started with the largest section and I'll need 21 units for the 6 by 7 quilt I've got in my head. It will be a good while before there is anything to share, but know that slow progress is occurring.

Dear Nate, you have your gandmothert's eyes. YOu don't need to give them bak. He's just a lovely child, isn't he?
So cute. That is why we still live in CA w/high taxes - the family members are no more than one short hour away and some kids/grandkids/greats are within walking distance of each other. Janet's family on same property. Am I to assume I am the Diana? Your CA cuz
Lovely bag, your show and tell gets better and better... especially with even lovlier, sweet little Nate! He's completely adorable.
The bags with the prairie points are lovely. What
pattern did you use? Nate is absolutely adorable.
We had our first great grandson join the family 2 weeks ago. They live near Boston, so it will be about a month before we get to meet him in person. Can't wait to hold him!
