Hey! I'm drooling right along with her!

That quilt is absolutely beautiful!

It is drool worthy I think..I also notice that she did something I haven't been doing and that's that she left the center out and let the background of the quilt be the center. Odd but pretty. I have been cutting out circles, intefacing and flipping and sewing down in the center, never left one blank like that. I saw a pattern for one yesterday that had a square for a center, it was interesting, might try that. I do love the dresdens!!! I guess if you all would rather not have one you should let me know if your name is below me because I really like making them so your chances are good for getting one from me. I did make Heather one this week that I thought was interesting, hope she likes it. It's not dresden, it's on the crazy quilt order but not quite that radical. although the crazy quilt is my second favorite so I can make you that too,love those..making my husabnd a quilt out of those for Christmas!! Sooo much to do and sooo little time!!! Planning on hauling Crumples over to the nice quilting shop in town here with me in September and getting my three completed Christmas quilt tops long arm stitched..excited about that but dreading the cost!!! Yes, I will take pictures, maybe of the whole process, that would be fun to show!

Okay... I went fabric shopping yesterday and am getting busy making Crumples and Goldenluver's blocks today! They will be the same pattern, so I hope you two don't mind. I'm making a third for myself too. The fabric is washing away as I type!

I did a little combining with mine this month....Christmas fabrics and card trick...really turned out cute. I've mailed Sarahbeth 9394 hers yesterday and am working on Leepsy's today.
And I mailed Lunachick her card trick today in Christmas fabrics...with her approval of course.
Then 17 Roses for the August block will be next...she didn't sign up for any of the Christmas fabrics swaps so I'm doing hers in some pretty fally (Thank you Marlin) fabrics.

You need to check out ThousandsofBolts.com also. They have gorgeous fabrics at reasonable prices. Maybe not as low as $1.99 yd but pretty close. Since we don't have a JoAnn's in Oklahoma, it's the next best place.
