    Look at some of the other blocks, there is lots of embroidery on some of them. I really like the ones with more embroidery. You could embroider from the tips of the hears and where the embroidery around the inner section dips, you could have it go out or some such thing. I'm sure you can fix it without resorting to doing it over.

    just mostly dealing with life. good news tho DH's last 3 doctors appointments went well. hopefully things will settle down (that is if DS can find another job and feep from getting fired).

    Congratulations on the birth of your Grandson, Candace. Give him a little cuddle from all of us.

    Don't despair, Cre8, the designs don't fit right up to the edge of the blocks, so I doubt if your slightly smaller one will notice anyway, in the grand scheme of things.

    Nice to have you back in the fold Luv - lovely to have a summer wedding to go to, but you have time to get a block or two done first, LOL.

    I ordered finger gloves on 6/2 and they arrived today. I can't believe the fast service. I tried them on and I can tell they are going to be a big help. I have arthritis in my thumbs and my grip is weak. These should definitely help me with grabbing the needle.
    I finished block 11 but I have the embroider to do. I traced block 10 and I picked out some fabric but I'm going to change 2 pieces. We are off and crawling to the finish line :thumbup:

    So glad you think they will help Losie - don't forget, if that ridge at the base is a tad too tight, cut it off - the things still stay on, but you are less aware of them cutting off your circulation.
