Good morning lovely ladies I got up at a ridiculously early hour this morning to finish TG block before Mr Bill and I take off for a mini get away. I had to stop last night because the lighting in my sewing room needs work and I was getting cross eyed. I just could not sleep any longer I kept seeing it in my dreams it wanted to be done so 3:50 this morning I listened to my brain got up and finished it.

Do you ever make blocks in your dreams? I do and sometimes it's so real I get confused when I can't find them or realize that mmmm ya that could only happen in a dream. I also figure out how to fix mistakes or make something I'm stressing over in my sleep and have to get up and do it before I forget. It's led to some very early mornings for me. It's a good thing I love sunrise and I'm a morning person.

Your fly away home block for TG is amazingly clever. I could see myself doing a block like that in my sleep. I do get idea's in the early morning hours.

Great block for TG Billi. Use to be a morning person but not anymore. Once I retired threw away the sleeping pills and now I go to bed when tired, usually very late and sleep till 8 or 9

Ibex this one is for you [ATTACH=CONFIG]559524[/ATTACH] after I got this done I had a pretty good size masks left but not enough of my really bright brights that worked so I played a bit and made this [ATTACH=CONFIG]559525[/ATTACH] its amazing how toned down it became. I don't hate it but I do like the first one better.
Both are wonderful! You're so kind to share your talent with us. I am blown away!!!
