Yes, writing and quilting are much alike in that they give one satisfaction. Congrats on your grade. Just wondering, but was this for a Freshman E-2 class? I took a summer creative writing class when I was in my late fifties and thoroughly enjoyed it. Hope college is enjoyable to you. Oh and by the way, Thanks for your country's service! I see your photo appears to have you dressed in a military uniform.

Actually, when this was taken I was dressed to go to work at Wal=Mart and my youngest son is dressed in one of his play uniforms. He is only 15 and not active duty yet. I did however spend 7 years on active duty but that was 25 years ago.

I want to say thank you to everyone who commented on my essay. It was for English 99 at my school. I attend American Military University online since I am unable to attend a regular classroom type setting due to health issues. They don't slow me down much but they do get in the way some times.
I'll post a better avatar as soon as I can find just the right pictures for it of all my family.

Oh Rhonda, you are so correct; my block does have Bostons in it. However, I pieced it during my Guild's block exchange and it was called Windmill. The 13" block was cut from 4" and 4-1/4" squares cut twice diagonally and was a lot of fun to make. Thanks
