Miriam is collecting blocks from the program she did a few months ago showing us how to stitch crazy blocks on printed foundation fabric. So far 17 blocks have been turned in and we need 3 more to make a veteran quilt. She plans to set them with black sashing between the blocks. Won't it be striking? 

Please remember to turn your block in at our October meeting, or if you would like to make a block, we still have some printed foundation fabric. The theme is "bright colors" and feel free to embellish it with black thread if you want to play with some of those fancy stitches on your machine, you know, the ones you never use.

Close-ups of untrimmed blocks. Aren't they great?
