    I managed to get Clue 2 done.. now on to # 3. I think I may add a few more blocks to this set or do another 12 and switch out some of them..

    Mary, I like your blocks a lot. They seem very ... calming....? (and your slippers are nice!)

    Good grief! I have been trying for an hour to load a picture on here. Well, anyway, I am caught up and ready for the next clue and so frustrated with trying to put a picture on here I could scream. From looking at my picture I see that one of my fabrics looks too busy so I need to change 2 triangles out. No biggie.

    Pam maybe is your picture archive too big??? I always resize-down them with "Microsoft picture manager" a program into the Microsotf officce pack. I supose there are free programs too.

    Honchey...IMHO do more blocks, but don't switch any out. It is a scrappy, after all. They all look terrific and have their points!
    Everyone's blocks look great so far. It's fun to see everyone's scraps and how they put them together.
    I only had Seahawk dark scraps, so had to take a trip to HLobby (didn't break my heart). Four more blocks to finish later today.
    Hubs and widowed brother took off for Key West yesterday. Lots of sewing time now! I'll send sewing pictures from the train to them and they'll send pictures of sunsets!
    Judy, thanks for being our conductor!!

    Waiting for Saturday? Try a Scrappy Heart! Look for Free Heart Block tutorial, if you have not made this one before.
    This one is a gift. I'll make a few more, add borders, & make pillows for my dear ones for valentines.
