They are two different colors in the blocks...one is Rosy with green; the other is purple and green. The Purple and green blocks are called Door number one; the rose and green is door number two. Block pattern is the same, but I like the second one the best. Will rip out the blocks behind door one and try again to 'show' different color arrangemt to show case the pattern more.

The lost is found, the FW 1930 was exactly where I put it. Will try ot work on it tomorrow.

Everyone take care to be safe and warm. Thanks to those who responded to my email. The help was appreciated.

My classes didn't make. The 2 I was gonna teach tis week at my LQS. We are gonna try next month. I do have all the blocks done. They did ask me to make another one as an example of the glue & how it washes off. We are also gonna try to do the classes as night classes. W/DH home all the time I don't have to spent the evenings w/him. OK I really didn't have to, but I did like to.
Since the classes didn't make DH & I are going to Brady tomarrow. I have packed 4 things to sew on in the evenings while we watch TV. I do love how we have the table set up so I can pull out a sewing machine & sew while we watch TV. Mike is gonna be very surprised when I get a sewing room, as I will still sew in the evening at that table. Now tomarrow we still need to pack the things we are taking there w/us. I haven't packed my toiletries yet either. Just the important (sewing) stuff.

NS, you are really going to town. I hope my sew mode comes back soon. I am looking at a 3-d football in patchwork that I got from Jinny B when I joined her newsletter a week ago. it is adorable. I would like to make a girly one and a boy one lol.......

Rosy, I go through those quilting slow down periods too. I got my mojo back with Bonnie Hunter's Mystery Quilt. In fact I went to a Quilt Guild meeting as a guest last night when she was the guest speaker. So exciting! She will be at another Guild in my area in another year. I will try to join that Guild so I can take a class from her! Seeing her quilts in "person" was amazing! She had 100 lbs of quilts with her!!!

Great, JenieG that you got to meet Bonnie Hunter. Wow. She raally knows how to 'speed' along doing her quilts and travel all over the USA. Ihave heard that her classes are fun.

Dublb, Sorry your classes did not make thie time, but a lot of things are going on right now in families and nation. I try to ignore most of it and quilt. But not to the point of ignoring my DH.

Too bad you all live so far away, to come to our 50th Wedding anniversary Open House March 34th. Buffet is served from noon until 2 pm. No gifts just a card shower.

QNS, 9 1/2 hour drive, one way, to your house. I don't think I'll make it. :-) But, fun to hear about the preparations, etc. It's a special day for you, that's for sure!

QuiltingNinaSue

You will be missed Givio; a card will do. Maybe a coffee mug from Michigan? Just a card would be fine. Yes, t is a very s pecial day to us. And some things will go wrong, but we will have lots of help and that will make it fun.

Wish we were traveling your way this year. However we decided to stay closer to home. I know you will have a marvelous day!
