Each month a new block (or more) will be posted and a new thread will begin for each new month. I hope many of you will join in and we will have a lot of new quilts to show off in 12 months or less.
You can join in at any time. We'd love to have you! NOTE: Please be sure to "Subscribe" to this thread so you don't miss anything.
This month there are 2 blocks. These were chosen by Denise Christiansen (THANK YOU, Denise!) As always, you can do one, two, or none of them. Your choice. These blocks will be yours, so choose your fabrics and quilt away. Make table runners, quilts, wall hangings, or potholders with them - your choice.
NOTE: All patterns come from The Quilter's Cache/Marcia Hohn. Please read her terms and conditions of use here. http://www.quilterscache.com/TermsPage.html
May blocks: Aunt Dinah http://quilterscache.com/A/AuntDinahBlock.html
Cross and Crown http://quilterscache.com/C/CrossandCrownBlock.html
I'd like some more people to select blocks. Please let me know if you would like to choose blocks from The Quilter's Cache/Marcia Hohn (www.quilterscache.com) website for future months, and send me the link(s).
Thank you for joining in. Happy quilting for all!

Well, I got another one done. Here's my Aunt Dinah block. I used more different colors to give the look of a flower and leaves, I think. LOL!

Juanita - welcome to the group. Since these blocks will be yours to keep, you can join in at any time. Glad to have you here. You can go back and make some of the earlier blocks - only if you want to do so. Otherwise just start here. Please post what you make so all can see.

Thank you, Judith! I think I'm going to make 6 additional blocks so I will have enough to fit my guest bed.
