    Hey Heather...got the row ! Like your color choices.....Pretty ambitious ...all those little "drunkard's path" blocks !
    And thanks for including a little extra....I will adjust your seams a wee bit and will be able to find a place for
    them to act as blenders some place. Here's a pic....

      Yes Wendy, I got it several days ago and will post a picture as soon as I can. Life has been really crazy here, I'll spare the details, but still have no sewing room. Glad (???) to see I'm not the only one who is behind. Hopefully I can get a small space cleared out so I can plug my sewing machine in and get something accomplished.

        Hurrah, no rush, I've know you've had lots of stress just hope it's getting better.

          And, here is another row from Heather...


          How ambitious is that! She chose a snowflake print blue fabric and a snowflake print white fabric. I think she has 42 strips in this bargello! (She must have gotten drunk after doing Marilyn's drunkard path blocks, to tackle such a long row!) I'm calling this my glacial row. A lot of work! Can't wait to put these rows all together!

          Thanks, again, Heather! Love it, love it!

              "...a wee bit..." -- you are so kind! Yes, my seams are not the best on curved stuff. I try, but they always end up shifted at the bottom corner. Of course I found a tutorial this morning, long after I had sent yours off, on basting the bottom corner before sewing, to prevent that. I will try it next time! Anyway, this is what happens when you tell me to do something scrappy. I hope it isn't too much of a pain to correct, and hope it fits in with your other rows.

                Dawn, I'm glad you like it! Your row was actually really easy. I just sewed 3" wide strips of white, blue, white, then cut them into (I don't remember what width) strips from there, and then cut off the excess of each. I just sewed the rows together, but I did blocks of 6 strips, then put those together....way less fussy than some of the others I have done, but I couldn't think of anything else. I'm glad you like it! Here I felt it was "too easy"

                And, finally I am sharing pictures of the row Andree' sent me quite some time ago, and the row Cathy sent me this past week. Both are lovely! Beautiful blue waves (snail tail, is it called?? I don't remember, but like waves coming in from opposite sides) from Andree', and fun, bright batik stars from Cathy, which remind of all the fun colors on the beach -- beach umbrellas, beach blankets, beach toys, etc. Fun, bright summery colors. Both are just stunning and the photos don't do them justice. They are simply beautiful!

                From Andree' --



                From Cathy --



                Thanks, ladies! I love them both!

                            I'll keep my fingers crossed and my eyes open for it (or should that be my fingers open and my eyes crossed?)

                            Got a couple of surprise days off, so I intend to get sewing, big style!
