I was running a little late with my July block, so here is a sneak peek of the block that is on its way to Margaret.

My Blocks for Raelene

Ok now that I received Raelene's blocks and posted them and I know that she has received the ones I sent her, I will show you what I sent to Australia:

 Raelene asked for any block made with Japanese fabrics and I toyed with a few ideas and I think this is what I ended up sending her (without the lace).........unless I did a curve setting on the Geisha at the top right corner....can't remember.......Raelene is this what I sent you?
well anyway, I also sent Raelene the Crazy Block below

Block from Brenda in WA

This pretty block arrived yesterday from Brenda in Washington.  It fits perfectly into my collection.  It's the last block needed for this quilt. Thanks, Brenda!

Here are all my blocks together.  I requested a block with orange or yellow or orange and yellow.  The design of the block was up to the maker.  Thanks everybody!  This isn't the final layout.  There will be some sashing involved too.  I haven't decided on the sashing fabric yet.  Have a great weekend!

For my next set of blocks I have requested churndash blocks with a cream background.  I can't wait to start seeing them!

For Teresa From Carol

Carol T asked that I post these peeks for Teresa.

Beautiful Blocks Received from Raelene!

 Just look at this gorgeous block that came in the mail from my partner, Raelene today.  It is called "Wild Zinnia" and is a paper pieced block.  Raelene did a fabulous job...look at those gorgeous points!  ..............and she didn't stop there because she also sent me this ScrapBagger Block too.......

Look how nicely they look together........Thank you so much, Raelene!  I love them both!

Block for Karen in Portland, OR

All the stars were aligned and my grandmother must have been watching over my shoulder from heaven today. I love the way Karen's block for the August Block Swap Adventure came together. I'm shocked that it's done already for August. I just couldn't sleep after working my midnight shift. Here's a sneak peek:
