Best Weekend Ever!!!

Byqubee-admin

Wow! What a ride it was over the weekend. Did anyone else join in on Pat’s virtual retreat? I know a few of you did. Did you feel the rush and have it carry over into Monday? Mine sure did! I even took some blocks to work to sew.

Make sure you check out Pat’s Blog for everything OP.

The lone block was the first OP block I did and posted on facebook. My block choices are done in groups of three. I will have three blocks from each color group of three. I plan on mixing up all my lights and darks. I will not keep them in groups of three like the picture. There is even a hint as to how I might set the quilt.

Did any of you see that I was the winner of two OP giveaways this weekend? I was going to wait til the items came in to tell you about this, but I could not wait that long!

From Carrie of Miss Rosie’s Quilt Co. I am getting the following.

From Carrie – “A few of my favorite things ~ many of them are orange. Chocolate orange sticks, tangerine jelly beans, one of my favorite teas ~ in an orange box, a Schnibbles quilt kit… and, yes, the wire basket is included. The fabric in the kit is Sandy Gervais’ Fresh Squeezed. It is everything you’ll need to make the Gazebo Schnibbles pattern included in the kit.”

As soon as I saw it was fabric from Sandy Gervais I knew I had to have it. Here is my comment:

“I missed Pat when she was in KC only found out after the fact. 🙁 Oh well. I love the fresh Squeezed fabric. I think I need to have it. Hell, I HAVE to have it.”

I am also getting some FQ’s from Jan over at a Quilty Pleasure she is sending me some of her orange stash along with some orange PEEPS. Don’t you just love peeps? Look at all those luscious colors. They would make one heck of a quilt.

Jan was kind enough to send me a picture of the FQ’s she is sending. Apparently, I am blind as a bat, there was a picture right there on her blog. Thanks for the picture Jan.

I will have to do another orange post later in the week once I get the giveaways and have more blocks done. I do post quilt pictures on my facebook page. Find out what I am doing in real time and become my friend on facebook (link on the right). See you there.

I need to go and get the corners sewn on the OP blocks.
