"Sew you clever girl, sew" (any whovians get that??????) Anyway this isn't going to be about this swap, but I am so proud of my fix I have to share somewhere. I was involved in a URR swap and just got my blocks today. Well one of the blocks was unusable, way to small, big fabric tucks, but I wanted to use this lady's block, I would hate it if she is just starting and got discouraged. And I already knew I was going to add a few missing blocks after the swap was finished. One of the missing blocks was the Jacob's ladder. The unusable block was the bow tie, so I took that block apart and used the bow fabric in the new block I made which is Jacob's ladder w/ bow ties. (the original fabric is the two darker bows in the corners by themselves) So here is my new block

Now that is a fantastic save! Way to go.

Not sure what they gave me to put me to sleep but one minute Im beinging pushed out the door to operating room, next thing I knew they were telling me it was time to wake up and 45 min was gone....Came home...took a nap and when I woke up I headed straight to the sewing machine and put binding on my hedgehog and monkey quilts and a baby quilt, cooked shrimp and cornbread for supper and its only 7 pm...wish I had this burst of energy ALL the time but Im sure Ill wear down soon....NO pain, more gauze pads and return visit Moday...maybe Im on the way to getting rid of this nasty infection!! Will try to do some blocks this weekend...thanks for all the prayers and well wishes!!

Janice -- I think these need to go into my "finished" block section of your blog post please. I knew I was finished but it didn't show all of the blocks. I was about to get worried I had misplaced some.

Phew...all is good though.

Reminder, all completed blocks must be IN MY HANDS on April 2, 2015. There are still 2 months left for this group!
