Block from Cathy to Terry

I heard from Terry that my block for August QBSA had arrived safely. Here is the sneak peek I posted earlier.

and here is the full block.

Terry asked for ANY BLOCKS in Grey, Black and Pink. I had so much fun making african violet blocks for the Block Lotto, I decided to upscale and make a 12" one in Terry's colours.

I also realised I had not posted pics of blocks I have received for July & August

Block for April, May and August

Well it has been really crazy around here, my health has not been that good but I am on the mend thank god! I am happy that I getting better. Today I have been feeling so well that I thought that I would get caught up on all my blocks but one.. I was doing so well until I realized that I missed JUNE!!! Well if I am feeling as good tomorrow as I did today I will have June's done as well.

August was the first month since I started this swap that I actually had the colours that my partner wanted and I did not have to go out and buy the fabric YIPPEE for me.

For June, I think that I have some Brights lying around that I can make a Block out out. So I am hoping that will be done before I go into town to do the post.

Thank you again my block partners for being so understanding and patient in waiting for your blocks.
