I have selected and cut my fabrics... another ocean theme. I am sending batik whales and lobsters, and would like to ask for batiks to be used with them if you can. Batik white is hard to find, so a regular solid white (not TOT) would be ok too. Here is the pic, with the two fabrics on the bottom and some suggested coordinates on the top. You will get either a lobster or a whale, but not both. I think these will go great together in a single quilt!

I will not be able to participate in this Boom, I am having cataract surgery in May on one eye and again in June for the other. Hopefully I will be able to join back in the next Boom. I so love this swap and enjoy making blocks for everyone.

I can't wait to see all of the pretty blocks you make for one another! SBG, that's beautiful fabric!!!

Here’s my fabric. The artificial light isn’t showing in true colors. The background is a pale yellow and the flowers are dark blue and red. Flowers are 1/2 to 3/4 inch wide. I’ll suggest you just use what you find in the fabric and coordinating colors. This is one of the fabrics given to me by my neighbor. I might dig out this Wild print I saw and send a second set of F8s.

I haven’t mentioned my neighbor in a while other than the fact that I sit with her a couple of hours a week. Lately, she’s been poorly so any kind thoughts you can send her and her family’s way would be appreciated. They’re all struggling with her illness as she’s been in and out of the hospital a handful of times in the last couple of months.

Knd thoughts would be appreciated too for Ernie. He’s not quite himself although he’s got feisty moments. We think he’s feeling his age very recently. Well, he is almost 15 I must remind myself

Hope you aren’t in this wind and are planning a nice weekend.

Reminder, the signups close on the third. If you are fence sitting, come on over! All are welcome, both new and old friends!
