    good luck moving back to school. i hope you'll have time to join in - i know how depending university can be
    thanks Klue! hopefully 2nd semester will be a good time for me to do this *fingers crossed* 1st semester will be crazy, 18 credits (over 6 classes), 2 jobs, honors program and engineering community...

    2nd semester however, is again 18 credits, but only 4 classes and probably only 1 job...still have honors/engineering but thats mostly study group type stuff, so it doubles as homework time, thank god.

    If this is good enough, I'm going to make 17 more!

    i know how crazy it can be, we just moved our cousin back to school today.

    the entire time we were there i kept whining to DH how i how i miss school and i want to go back and get another degree.

    this is the first time in my entire life (well since i was a 5 year old) that i'm not in any classes - it feels so weird - did i mention i'm in my 40s.

    this is the main reason why i felt this year was the year to make a Jane quilt, i don't know if i'll ever have this kind of spare time again.

    i'm thinking about going to FIT in NYC to study textile arts next year.

    the blocks are all coming along so beautiful. Almost makes you wish they were part of the real quilt.
    my computer crashed, the mother board is fried, thank god it did it now i've only had it since mid july. i'm only checking in every 3 or 4 days.
    everything is moving along so fast.
    great blocks!!!!
