krisinmi, really?? I wasn't too happy with it. The colors din't pop like I wanted, they seemed to fade into the fabric. Guess I didn't audition them too well on the fabric. He is what he is!!

krisinmi , Melissa , Maura , wvterri , Billie , mzgarden , pauline , mollymckee , Use Less , June is here, and our first forum quilt of the year has reached its due date. If, for whatever reason (and I totally understand that life has a way of sneaking up on us and stealing our sewing time-- I confess that mine isn't quite done yet.), you have not mailed your block yet, don't despair. I would still love to see it arrive in my mailbox, and send it on to our winner with the others. Don't beat yourself up; put that energy into completing your block. Since May is over, and with it the deadline to be included in the drawing, I have gone ahead and drawn, at random from those who returned their blocks by May 31st, the lucky winner. And that is. . . Billie!!
Billie, you get to choose the fabric for our next quilt (which will probably have a Fall sign-up). Please purchase 4 yards of fabric for us to create with(or pull some from your stash, if you have a big enough piece) . Wash, dry, iron and cut three of those yards into approximately 12" squares, leaving the fourth yard intact. Mail it all to me, and I will send you the fabulous blocks you've won. They are going to make a really adorable quilt.

Billie, you've been participating in the forum quilts for a long time. Odds are you'll win now and then.

krisinmi, I know, but I still feel a bit guilty for winning. I enjoy making just one block because you can try new things. Anyway, how long before the next one so I know how much time I have to look for fabric??

Oh, man! I forgot all about this and never received fabric. I didn't realize I'd been away for so long and coming back this evening I see a message about not having my addy. I'm so sorry!

Billie, hi, was wondering if you had pictures you could share of the squares for the last quilt? I'm just curious how things turned out.

Billie , hi, was wondering if you had pictures you could share of the squares for the last quilt? I'm just curious how things turned out. No I don't, because I have not received the squares yet. I have no way to post pictures. Maybe Kris can do that. I do have the fabric for the next forum quilt. I need to wash it and cut it and send it to Kris. I will try and get that done this coming week and get it in the mail. I have been dealing with a bunch a different family issues and just haven't had the time. Sorry about that. Thanks for reminding me I need to do this!!!
