    Well, I have 16 done and 1 really bad that is in need of repair, then the last one. I might be better off just making both of them from scratch.

    I know, just feeling disconnected from this project right now... :cry:

    Thats what I was kinda figuring Klue....the first block for this swap did take a lot of time, but as I got used to working the PPing again...I was whipping out about 5 in 3 hours....so not tooo bad.

    Klue,
    Did you start a separate thread for the DJ triangles?
    Thanks.

    no, i just kept the triangles in this one since it was the same color scheme and not many outside people would be interested in the triangles - you really need some jane blocks to go with them :D

    I JUST returned from a very needed and much enjoyed 2 1/2 week vacation. I'm almost finished with jet lag and about to go back to work on my 2nd set of DJ blocks, and VERY relieved to know about the Nov 6 extended deadline :lol:

    Klue -I'm hoping that you meant JoanneS = 1 set!

    And VERY good luck with your surgery!

    i'm so glad you had a restful vacation and i'm happy to see you back on the forum. i think of you often and wonder what you're up to when i don't see you posting.

    yes, that should have an "s" on the end - your set was the very first set rec'd.

    we started a blue & white DJ block swap thats due after the new year if you'd like to get in on that one too.

    here's a link to that thread

    Thanks, Klue. I'll feel good when I get back in my sewing room :lol: I haven't trusted myself yet because of the jetlag - makes my head spin. I probably won't join the blue&white swap - don't need another deadline right now :wink: - though I may change my mind after I get to AZ Dec 1 :!: Of course, all the easy blocks will be gone by then. On the other hand, maybe you'll have so many by then that you'll open it up to duplicates :lol:
