anyone up for helping??

hello all!! i must say i am loving what i am seeing here. the reason i am posting is rather needy, you see we moved, and all my stuff is in storage. what i was wondering is if anyone has some scraps they would be willing to part with so i can continue on my calendar journey. I have a piece from everything i own, and i am running out. i am a little behind, plan to catch up as much as i can in a little bit, and some this weekend. i have enough to go through may and into june. i do not however have more to continue through the year. instead of going and buying fabric that i do not have the money for right now, i was wondering if anyone wanted to send some scraps my way?? my pieces measure 2" x 8 1/2". so the pieces would have to be big enough for me to cut that size. Let me know if you are interested, and i can give you my mailing address. you can contact me by email at

thanks!!

Time Flies Like an Arrow...

...Fruit flies like a banana. (Groucho Marx)

I was just hoping for a "time gets away from me" quotation, but I'll go with the banana reference.

Here, in all it's glory, is my APRIL block, finished in various shades of... (wait for it!!)



banana. (I am so easily entertained!)

This block/month is the same length as my January block (36"). It's a little bit narrower, but I won't hold that against me.

Detail from the Ellie's Quiltplace Country Calendar BOM.

I am now officially JUST one complete month behind on this and any other BOM that I am doing this year. I'm calling that half full!

Yes, I know it´s already June......

......but today I finished April, only the stitcheries are missing. Tommorow I will put my first four months togehter with the sashing, and then go on with May.

This is the fabric I have purchased for my sashing and borders, dark grey/brown with grey dots. Really love it!

Happy Stitching
