    I love to talk about quilting as much as I love to do it :)

    You can get priority shipping for $12 so less than $40 for 22 sheets. And I gladly pay for the convenience of having the right size to use the copier feature on my printer. JMHO
    Thanks for the tip!

    I believe the blocks come out to be either 4" or 4 1/2" There are books and software to make this quilt and it gives you the history of the quilt.
    Thanks! It did show a picture, but no history, etc. Maybe I can google it and find out. But ... all I can say is ... "Oh my!!!" :shock:

    Sounds like a great use of time to me as well as productive.
    Cell phones are so over rated. LOL

    Good for you, that is how I got my Cathedral Windows quilt done-took me a year, sitting waiting for kids in lessons.

    What a great use of your time. I pray that your son is able to improve with all that therapy. Keep us posted on the progress.
