    I found a couple collections at Marcus fabrics that I would really like to use for this quilt. Problem is they
    don't come out until later in the spring. So right now I am making a couple sample blocks to try Lynn
    and Barbara's techniques but won't actually begin until about June. So I plan to do Dee's Kona Cotton BOM
    in the mean time. Here are a couple pics of the fabrics I plan to use for Laurel Ridge. HelenW

    Yeah! Month 1 is done, trimmed and put away. Like the tips and advice from both Lynn and Barb.

      Well I finished on day 5 - somehow I made twice as many as requested!.
      I guess I mis-read something. Once I discovered my mistake I decided that I'd go ahead and finish them - hoping that I could substitute the extras for other places in the quilt. It looks like that might work out.
      I'm happy to put it away for awhile while I quilt my "Rugged Coast" quilt. (A bit more my normal style)

      Thank you all for sharing, I enjoy looking at everyone's work.
