I hate it when I do that. Ripping machine stitches is bad enough but it is REALLY hurtful when you have to rip hand stitches!!!!

I try to look at it as a learning experience. I told myself twice to stop because the math was playing havoc with my brain, but no I just pushed through all those STOP signs!

Congratulations on on your new lease and pending move Libster. It will be so nice to be done with that mower I bet!

Thank you, PamelaOry. I have a good friend from church already living there and my granddaughter-to-be's Mom lives there. At least it won't be all total strangers for me. I feel very comfortable about this move. There will be a workout room (HAHAHA), a media center and a lending book nook. The building is keyless entry, three stories with elevators. And, there is no acre and a half yard to be mowed! I loved it when DH was living, but now it's just too much for me at 74.

[ATTACH=CONFIG]599909[/ATTACH][ATTACH=CONFIG]599910[/ATTACH]Ha, I just realized the picture of the scraps is larger than the block! 
For SewBiz
I had to laugh that Kass said she just had a tiny piece left. I had already taken a pic of the threads I had left!
Beautiful block, Kass.
Hey, I think that will free you up for more sewing time, Libster! Condensing my belongings would be hard for me though. We did it six years ago, when we moved closer to our kids but I could still pare down a lot, just how do you decide.

GramE and Kass, two amazing blocks for Sewbiz! I just love those colors and fabrics. Reading this board is like strolling through an art gallery!
Libster, congratulations on your decision to move. Sounds like a fantastic idea to me. I hope it is everything (and more) you are looking for!

I am loving all the blocks today. Absolutely beautiful. Sewbiz, I can't wait to see your quilt. Those blocks coming out are amazing.
Libster, Congrats on your upcoming move. I think it's great!! The older we get, the harder it is to take care of things, especially if you are alone. This will be my plan when the time comes! Enjoy your friends and more time to sew!
I'd like to ask for some prayers or positive thoughts for my DD & SIL living in Oahu. Pray that Hurricane Lane turns to the left (I think that's to the west) and stay clear of a direct hit to the islands. They have cancelled school for Thur & Fri. I think Oahu will get hit sometime Friday. Lot's of rain and wind. Flooding is expected. Yikes. They have been there only a year and have been through that Nuclear Boom Threat (Big scare to everyone), and now this.
Thank you very much!!
Have a great evening.

Followed closely by another spectacular block! Thank you for this beauty, GramE. So glad neither of you ran out of fabric.
Yikes, this is going to make it harder to give the quilt away.
