    ........ think ....... think ....... think ........ doesn't sound like a terrible idea, does it???????

    You know I will take ANY EXCUSE to go spend $$$$$$$ on fabric, right??????

    Just hang in there, ladies. You'll get pretty blocks soon enuff!

    I had the same problem with two fabrics so while I was in town today I stopped at the LQS (very small store) and low and behold there were two perfect matches. I left with a smile on my face and headed home. I won't get to play with them until next week but they're all snuggled up together so they should be happy for the week-end playing together.

    Today I got F8s from Jupiter, Goldendog55, and Odessaquilts. And, two beautiful blocks from ReneeBobby and Shaysmema. Tomorrow I am off to the annual tent sale by one of our LQS. Hopefully I will find some fabric for those giggling youngsters that have just not liked anything I have shown them from my stash.

    Oooh I'm so excited to see it! I hope that I love it as much as you do.

So, I have it packaged up and ready for the mail in the morning, I hope you like it. It is suposed to have a border around it but I wasnt sure exactly what you were planning so I am just sending the border strips and you can decide if you want to attatch it.

    Thanks to everyone for allowing me to make blocks for them, I am having a wonderful time and am really pushing myself to try new things in making blocks.

    I received F8's from Odessa and jupiter today. I'm going to let them hang out with the rest and get comfortable so they can start getting some ideas about what they want to be when they grow up.

    Need Help. I have new embroidery machine. Janome 9500 so it has a 5x7 hoop. And being in the spirit of trying something new, I want to try piece in the hoopb but having trouble finding 12 inch blocks online.
    Anyone have any ideas?
