I've received 3 very nice blocks this week, but haven't posted because I've either been very tired or not feeling well. I"m sorry.
These blocks are wonderful and my sister and I keep looking at them, and saying that our mom is going to love getting this quilt! The colors that have been added are just what she would like! Thank you!

You are most welcome. When you buy our pens,(they come in many colors) be sure it is Archival Ink. That is the important part. This last time I bought the .05 and it is very fine line. Next time will go up in size just a little. For paper .05 is fine but to write on fabric it is very very thin line.

Viv,
I am so happy you like it. Please be sure I get to see a picture of the quilt when you display it. When I saw the pattern, I knew that was what your fabric needed. I skimmed it and just started cutting, about half way thru I realized I was not going to have enough fabric that it needed a FQ not a F8. I had this horrible feeling in the pit of my stomach. I tried finding it at my LQS, but she had nothing like it. My last resort was to PM you and pray you had more fabric and would be willing to send it. I have done blocks similar in the past but never this particular one. When I was finished, I was very happy with the points and how sharp and crisp they were. I have fabric picked out to make one for myself to use for a wall hanging, I really liked it.
