    Whew! I got March and April done this month. I enjoy it more when I can focus on just one block. I plan on not getting behind, I can see where it would get overwhelming if one is several months behind.

    Everyone"s April block looks wonderful. It sure is fun to see the variety.
    Good advice, Terri!! Your blocks look great!

          Carla I love the colors & the extra stitching really sets it off! Mine's almost done, I'm feeling certain it'll be complete before May shows up!

                  Carla, I love your block too! The extra attention to detail really pays off. I haven't even started my April BOM yet and May is just around the corner. It seems my guest room/quilting room has been getting a lot of visitors this month. I can't wait to get back in there!

                        Wow... I thought I'd never finish this one. I got side-tracked a little with my quilted tablecloth. That's done--- Yay!!!

                        I really had fun with this one. This is definitely my favorite block so far. I posted to my profile. All the April blocks that have been posted so far are sooooooooo good!!

                          Lori,
                          I love the little curly-q vines (for lack of proper terminology). All of the blocks I agree are so beautiful and unique.

                                Great blocks, Lori and Florence!

                                I'm back from Paducah, and I am so hyped! I have so many great ideas, and just wish I had more time to do them all!

                                Alex's evening talk was great. Ricky's Friday night concert was wonderful! If you don't have his Sacred Age CD, get it! It is great music to quilt by.

                                I elected to wait to go to Hancock's of Paducah until Satuday afternoon, and was treated to $2.98/yd in the back room! WooHoo!

                                Maggie, back in blustery E. Central Illinois. We had a sleet storm that actually made the ground white!
