G6: Grace’s Friendship (which I did on thursday), G2: Oklahoma Dogwood, and G5: Mariner's Compass.
These are the blocks I have been dreading all along; small and narrow points, appliqué of “strange” shapes, I bit the dust and foundation paper pieced the G2 and G5, and cut a corner on the G6 with using Vliesofix and buttonhole stitched on the machine.
Happy thoughts from

Congratulations Anne Ida!!! I admire you for going on all that time!
I am a SBS-blockmaker too, but sometimes the blocks go to sleep for some weeks..;-(
I only have finished about forty!
Veldig flott arbeid! Eg har sete og lese gjennom eldre innlegg frå deg. Kan du forklare meg kva denne swap-greia er for noko? Det er så mykje eg må oppdaterast på...
I just cannot wait to see this all together!!! fabulous job...the Mariner's compass is the only thing I have ever machine paper pieced, there is just no other way to get the points, tracey
Fantastic :O) You have done a wonderful job. All the blocks are beautifully done. Counting the months, this has been a sort of a pregnancy, and you shared it all with the rest of us ;-D Really looking forward to ses the "baby" finshed.
Enjoy - a lot!!!
many hugs!!!!
Congratulations- I am truly very impressed! Still thinking about starting SBS, I see Elin has started hers now... Hope you had a glass of wine to celebrate :)
They are all beautiful and what a wonderful accomplishment. I very impressed with your diligence - way to go! I'm going to go take a closer look.
Applause, applause. I think you worked very fast and chose the colours very well. With my quilt group, we are just starting a Civil war diary sampler, any interest?! Once more congrats and take care.
Wow, beautiful blocks, I like it!
Kind Regards

That is one stunning body of work.
Great job.
You did it !! Congratulations !! Your blocks are beautiful.
Those a really beautiful blocks. I also admire all of your finished SBS blocks. This is a project I would NEVER attempt.
You did it! WOW and congratulations. That was a big undertaking. Can't wait to see it assembled and quilted.
Those blocks are fantastic and Congrats on a big accomplishment of completing 140 blocks. You should celebrate.
Congratulations!!!!! That is so amazing. I am so impressed, I better get back to my Dear Jane - LOL.
Did I say I would never attempt...well I lied. I could not get over how beautiful your blocks were that I took the plunge also. Thanks for the inspiration.
Yes you have finished them, can´t wait to see when you put them together. Grrrrreat job.
My Goodness...you are an inspiration chick! The blocks look wonderful. If I get ONE quilt done this month I will be happy, and you have inspired me to get off the computer (ha ha) and sew!!! :)
Thanks for the tip. I check my printer, and it was set for 100%, so I don't know what happened. The instructions said to ad 1/4" seam allowance, which I did.
Just found your blog via Seasonal Quilt Swap and had to comment on the SBS blocks. Wow! 140 blocks! Very lovely! I look forward to seeing how it all gets put together.
