  1. Charise, thank you so much for bringing these beautiful vintage Kansas City Star blocks back to life! I am so looking forward to this sew-a-long. My question is this, how many blocks will we be making? Also, will there be any suggestions for putting the quilt together at the end?
    Love your blogspot and virtually everything that you do. It's so creative and whimsical.
    Thank you,

  9. Thank you so much for your beautiful patterns. I'm finding it somewhat hard to find "vintage" fabrics. Any suggestions? Also, it's the end of July 2013 and I'm wondering if you are, in fact, going to have 12 blocks by October 2013. Not that I'm in a hurry, but I look each month for a new one and so far there are only seven. I hope if you don't have time to do them all by October that you will extend your time, so that we can get all 12 blocks! Thanks again.

  16. I was wondering if block 12 is available? I have been watching and looking hoping I didn't miss it. I want to thank you for all the hard work you put into making these beautiful blocks for all of us. It is nice to know there is someone who can put my thoughts into actual designs.

    Thanks much,
    Vicky

  17. There is a photo of block 12 on flickr, but I can't find the instructions either. The layout instructions are coming, according to the blog, but the links seem to be missing. There is a # in front of the title on the flickr site so I expect it is only available by some other medium. I don't "twitter" or tweet, so I don't think I will be able to get the last block. I still have a few blocks to make and was waiting for the last set of instructions to select the fabrics for the final blocks. Looking fowrard to complete this one, the patterns are vintage but not often seen in quilts, I think because of their complexity. Love the patterns.

  18. I have all the patterns but #12 is unavailable. Is it possible to get this pattern? TIA
