    Thank you so much! I really enjoy the embroidery with my machine. I have found a ton of free designs on the web and one site gives away a new one free every day and every hour! Also they have a $1 page each hour. It is as addicting as quilting...and you combine the 2 so I have multiple addictions! 8-)

    I absolutely love the blocks to date, great embroidery, you can make as many sets as you wish to get back, if you run out of a certain material substitute another in just keep the same pattern, I'm sure everyone else would be ok with that. Keep up the great work. Mine will be done today.

    Great! I was wondering...if I send 6 in now and 6 later, do you send me one of mine and 5 others back, and then send the other 6 when I submit my remaining 6, or do you send us all 12 at once? And not to be dense, but to save shipping, should I just keep one of mine and then you will mail me 11?

    Took a little longer than anticipated. Was so proud of myself getting things all cut out as per pattern...couldn't figure why I ran out of white fabric...only to find out that there was a mistake in the pattern calling for an 18 X 4-1/2 strip that should have been 2-1/2
    :cry: If I had only cut enough for one out first, I would have found the mistake and saved so much fabric. Oh well, I see a pink and white scrappy quilt it my future :D Maybe I can use it as sashing or something in the quilt?

    Well this block be ok?
    Your block is beautiful!! I am also using the darker pink fabric that has the butterflies and flowers on it.

    I'm sending my blocks today. I used a new sizing on one of my fabrics. When I iron it is looks burned. I have tested on leftover fabric and it all goes away. It is just the sizing stuff. I am throwing the sizing away.
