Becky kindly offered to help me get my quarter inch right on my featherweight. I think I am set now, thanks Becky! Becky finished up her Anita's Arrowhead blocks and I managed to snag a picture of them, but not a picture of her Auntie's Anvil which she quilted and half bound!
Here is hers. She is still working on the bonus hsts.
Meanwhile the reason I needed help with my quarter inch seam was these pesky blocks. Do you remember Smith Mountain Morning? I know, it has been a LONG time! I think I put these away last fall when I started doing Orca/Green Bay because two complicated Bonnie projects at a time is too much for me. And because I had discovered that my seam wasn't great and with these log cabinish blocks that is REALLY important. Becky and I looking things over and came up with a plan of action and it seems to have worked. The picture above is the stack of blocks which are waiting for the last two blue logs and cornerstones to be added to them. The logs are now together and the next picture is the four blocks that are done.
Randy gave DJ her quilt today but I haven't heard if she likes it or anything. Hope it brightened her day anyway.

Again....I wish wish wish we were closer. Your sewing "hangout" days sound so amazing with friends.
Wonderful progress on everything. Still tickled that Kathy has joined in on the mystery too :)
You can get SMM finished for December. It is an amazing quilt. So worth all the seam allowance issues.
I like the Smith Mountain Morning blocks, but I don't have any brown!
These Blue/Brown blocks are just so rich looking.
