Suze, I have recently come into an ENORMOUS amount of flannel!

yes, I will bring you a few kits!  Do you want the 2 pieces cut to the same size?

Does anyone have left over blocks - or pieces from their Eclipse quilts from long ago?

i have a packet of 35 blocks from Denise that could use a few to go with it!  I can cut more, but I know most of you are like me and end up with orphan blocks or bits and pieces that you love to use up!

let me know!

No more than 10 for the lotto.  That's how many tickets you will get. They can all be different or the same.

I know I haven't been posting much, but I have been lurking.

With all the beautiful work you do, you need to be posting with pictures.  I've seen some on FB.

wondering how much room there will be at our spots.

If I have this figured right, you should have about the same table space as we did at the Clarion.  The tables are 8 ft long.

You sent me down a rabbit hole!  I went to see if there were any eclipse blocks in my orphan pile.  Well, the orphan pile was bigger than I thought.  No eclipse blocks. 

But I've been trying to finish some panels in a creative way, so I put all the orphan blocks on my design wall.  Now to see if I can use any of them for a border.  I love an offset panel.  Some of them may work for that.  I have 2 blocks that I don't know what happened.  They were probably one of the disappearing blocks and I decided it was easier to remake the block.  Not even sure I know what to do to fix them but may use them anyway as humility blocks.  We shall see......

They really do look cute and are so easy to make!

I went on a roll, making a whole bunch of them.  I didn't need them; they were just too cute to make!   I had a passing through to sell them on Etsy but then I looked at the competition.  EVERYONE and their dog was offering them.  The prices were ridiculously low (wouldn't even cover the cost of fabric) to what might cover expenses and a modest profit (but then who would PAY that much??).

I eventually decided that mine weren't any different nor substantially better than what was being offered so I never put them up.
