Thank You!
I need to say thank you...first, thank you to those who swapped or sent pieces of Flea Market Fancy from your stash for my Flea Market Fancy hexagon project. I'm so grateful...fabric arrived from the U.S. and Canada. One piece arrived in an envelope with no return address...so thank you so much. I never thought I'd be able to collect this many hexagons. Unbelievably, I'm now only missing four pieces--the small posies on orange, the other green bubble dots, the small seeds on grey, and the blue medallions. I'm definitely going to figure out my arrangement, choose a background fabric and frame this project when I'm finished.
Another big thanks to Thelma...for enabling me to finished my Shangri La jelly roll sampler quilt along quilt. I have a "rule" that when I join a quilt-along I have to use fabrics from my stash ( except for borders, backing, and binding). When I decided to use this Shangri La jelly roll I was sure I knew of a quilt shop where I could find border and binding pieces...of course when I went to pick some up the fabric had all sold. Then just a few days later I saw a Shangri-La quilt on Thelma's blog--she went back to the shop, picked up border and binding fabrics and sent them right away. Quilter's are an amazing group...thank you Thelma!
And then, yesterday, I had another surprise in the mail...a beautiful scissor fob made and sent by Darlene. I had seen some of these on her blog but had no idea I would be a recipient...thank you so much Darlene! It's gorgeous--wish I could have gotten a better picture.
I'm definitely going to be working on some "thank you" gifts in the near future!

Really like the quilt, Sherri. So pretty. Such a fun Jelly Roll Sampler.
Your jelly roll sampler looks great! I got so caught up in moving that mine is month's behind. :-/ Maybe one day! Love the little hexies too. :-)
YOur jelly roll quilt is beautiful and it just had to have that border- it's perfect! Looks like you have been blessed with kindnesses this week:)
You've gotta stop tempting me with those hexagons. :-) As if I don't have enough projects.
Your sampler quilt is gorgeous. The border looks really nice. Darlene is always doing something really nice.
Bloggers are the best and it is so nice how they have helped you out.
That Darlene is so sweet. I got one too.
Your jelly roll quilt is lovely. I really must do a hexagon quilt some day. Yours will be so pretty. Very nice of Darlene to send you the cute scissors fob. Have a good day. Winona
quilters are awesome aren't they!! Love your scissor fob..I saw them on Darlene's blog....
The hexies are just as sweet as they can be, aren't they!? And I love the Shangri-La quilt -- I have some of that fabric stuck back for a particular quilt; hope I have enough, for I'm sure it's really getting scarce!
Isn't it great to have quilting friends!
Blessings,
Mary Lou
You know, quilters just renew my faith in humanity. I cannot believe all the nice things they do for other people, with no other motivation than to do something nice. Love it.
Sherri:
Those hexagons look great - I may just have to try making some myself!
Love your hexies! I'm glad you were able to finish your Shangri-La jelly roll quilt - it's beautiful.
I'm pleased you like the scissor fob - it's to thank you for participating in the hug quilt I received from so many last Fall.
The jelly roll quilt came out beautifully. Very nice.
Beautiful Quilt Sherri, you sure get a lot accomplished.
The jelly roll quilt is beautiful. I love the way everyone has followed the same pattern, but have quilts that are so different.
Your hexies look fabulous all layed out by print like that. Sure is a fun project! Love your sampler quilt along project too. How nice to get a little help from a fellow blogger to finish your own!
Sherri, I love the colors in your hexi's, they are so bright and cheerful. They make me want to stop what I'm doing and get some made, LOL. Your Jelly Roll Sampler Quilt is just beautiful...and the adorable scissor fob from Darlene...your absolutely right, 'Quilters' are a very special group of people. Their kindness and generosity never ceases to amaze me! Hugs...
Your Shangri La jelly roll sampler quilt is gorgeous! And so are your hexies! I am finding out just how wonderful quilters can be just from reading everyones blogs. I don't belong to a guild so had never experienced the kinship that I am now through my and everyones blogs. Quilters rock!!!
The quilt is beautiful and I love the hexies.

Cute littl hexies! and your sampler is beautiful!
So glad you were able to get the FMF you needed. Darlene is very thoughtful.
Hi there! I got most of my FMF from swaps and friends as well. It looks like you might be covered now from the comments. I'd be happy to pass along the love if you still need your final prints - email me what you still need!
Hi Sherri!
Your hexies and your quilt look just lovely...
I am simply overwhelmed by how blessed we are to be part of such a quilting blog community!
:)
Aren't quilting bloggers the best?? Sharing ideas and fabric and lots of other goodies too!
Sounds like you're a lucky duck! I LOVE all of those hexagons.
Your hexagons look great! I would frame those too! Your sampler looks wonderful too.
