One more thing

We're evacuating, so posts may be sporadic for a few days! I think I will be able to post from my aunt's house, though, assuming she's gotten her new computer running right by now.

I hope you can see enough of this to get the idea, because I think this is a fabulous quilt. (Click on the name to get the bigger version and that should help.)

I think I posted a picture of part of this quilt last year at the retreat - it's finished now.

(These are pictures I took at quilt guild last night - they're a bit dark but there were some really nice quilts so I'm posting them anyway!)

Applique block

Pink applique

I've mentioned before that we have some really incredible applique-ers in my guild - but since I don't do applique I think sometimes they get short shrift here. So I am going to put some pictures of applique up next.

Look! zipper blocks!

Another swap quilt

Snail's Trails fall batik quilt

Everybody who did the fall batik swap (my block is here) was very interested in this quilt made out of the blocks from last year's swap.

This is an example of a really beautiful block that I would never, ever try to make myself. Luckily, some people are braver than I am.

(I tried to post this yesterday and flickr "hiccupped" right around then, so cross your fingers.)

I'm not normally a huge fan of thirties fabric, but once in a while I see one I like a lot, and this is one of them.

Pale bullseye quilt

Bullseye quilt

I forgot when I was talking about exchanges that I signed up for a fabric exchange, too, and it's to get the fabric for this courthouse steps patterns. Not in these anything like these colors, though, much as I like them - instead it's very dark, deep batiks. (It's from a Fons & Porter magazine from a year or so ago, if anybody remembers that.)
