My husband and I graduated from the same High School. We went to a multi year class reunion last night. I haven’t had a chance to see people we went to school outside of our class in years. There were people from all generations, sooo cool from 1943 to 2010. My name tag said I graduated from 1965 not 1984. We made jokes all night, you know, I was well preserved and cougar before it was popular etc. Lots of reminiscing, had good food and a good time.
I made 40 of these Modern Birds in the Air blocks in the spring and mailed them off for a block swap. I received my blocks yesterday. I sewed them up today in to a quilt top. I have blocks from Australia, Scotland, Canada and many US states. Each is signed by the maker. I hope to meet some of the Michigan quilters at the Grand Rapids AQS show. I am quilting a few for customers then I want to get mine quilted. I am thinking my day job is gonna get really busy since we are short staffed and long arming for others , except for friends, and such will really slow down.

From the beginning on my wall they looked right in this setting for me, I tried all of them for sure before coming back to this one!

Beautiful! I’m sure you’re the first to get these sewn together. I’m still thinking about layout.

I played around with several ideas and this one appealed the most to me. Now to find time to long arm it! Love block exchanges

Thanks, it was a rainy slow Sunday and those blocks were just waiting on the design wall….I had to get them together. It will be a while before it’s quilted !
