Hi Giselle, I am working on the Hot Flashes BOM quilt also. In fact I am
doing 2 at one time. One is for me and one is for my sister who will be 50 in 2006. Nothing like getting a jump on things. Linda in Tx |

Linda in Tx Usually if I start now the recipient might see it before the end of the decade so starting now for a gift in 2006 sounds like you're rushing yourself. Did you get your kit from Homestead Fabrics, too? Giselle (I *love* the batiks!) |

Hurray!
I'm so pleased to read about your test blocks g I used to be a plunge straight in person, too. But now I test patterns and quilting - more or less whatever, if I haven't done it before. In the end it saves a lot more than money g .. In article , "\"Pussywillow\" Volfie" writes I will try to get someone to take photos and put them on the 'net for me but I don't have all the necessary equipment myself. I have two blocks done now. I'm using black (tone on tone or prodominently black) backgrounds but for the color fabric I'm using shiny, solid color fabrics and/or fabric with gold printed on it. They look pretty nice. I can't wait to see it done. NOW I'm working on a BoTM kit that I bought last year: Hot Flashes. I have all the fabrics but I just didn't have the nerve to start cutting it out. I've finally decided to just do a test block in other fabrics so I can make sure I cut the more precious fabric right. I used to be too lazy to do that but I'm finally sick of goofing up the expensive fabrics. I just keep telling myself that I'll have two quilts for the bother of one this way. I'm *REALLY* enjoying this snowy, blowy, can't-do-much-else day. Giselle -- Best Regards pat on the hill |

I got my Hot Flashes (:-)) from a store in Patchogue NY. I love the
colors and different blocks. Linda_ |
