SIGNATURE BLOCKS



 So here they all are!  
I rcvd a couple more this week, and I can I tell you, I have EXACTLY what I need!
I have a couple spots left for my mother and aunt who come on Monday, and one from 
my hubby's niece and daughter whom we will see in London next week, and one spot for 
Shelly, (you mailed it already right?) ;-)
hmmm,  maybe that means Trudi may have one for me?
I'm thrilled! Don't they look great!


Thank You Norece, DAVID, Bonnie T!

 I drove a load of my stuff to my house last night to set up shop out here again, for the summer.
I love NYC but the summer's are a bit Stifling, stinky, and I'd rather be sewing near my garden!
Have more to bring... We're out here for the summer starting Friday. Wohoo! can't wait!

 I'm glad I did pop out, as a bunch of my peonies have blossomed... Isn't this one divine?
It's nearly dead already, but I don't mind... that light yellow and pink is inspiring!

The HOT PINK and GREEN looks pretty darn good too! another quilt color combo?

Of course it's Gorgeous out today... And I have a two hour drive back to NYC...

( I really want to start cutting strips for the signature blocks, but I can't! gotta get back!)

I may need to go jump in the pool quick, just to welcome summer!
(it's probably freezing cold)

By the way... I am very intrigued that a bunch of you said said the
Key LIME PIE ice cream was good!  I need to go investigate...
I think I should do an ice cream flavor review... at least once a week!

LOL!
Isn't that a good idea?

The only thing I have in the freezer here is Skinny cow MINT ice cream sandwiches..
I'll let you know how they taste!

  5. Your signature blocks look just great -- what a collection. I am curious to see them all set and stitched together. It will be super I'm sure.

  7. I'm so sad I never got my block done for you! I really wanted to contribute one but I haven't had ANY time for sewing of any kind lately :( Stupid job. Oh well...

    It's not summer here yet - still a bit chilly. I haven't even planted my garden (again, no time). You flowers are gorgeous! Have fun out of the city!

  8. Yes your block is on the way, or it will be in the morning. Right now it is sitting on top of my refrigerator addressed and stamped and ready to go. Eeak!!!
    I will run it down to the post office box as soon as I get home.
    I promise it is a really cute block and will be worth the wait.

  10. Oh WOW!!! Each block is unique and all of them together are awesome! I just know you're going to do something wonderful to bring them all together.
    What better summer past time than auditioning a different flavor of ice cream each week?!! You got my vote!
    The flowers are lovely. Nature is such an inspiration and so are you!
