    I have 24 froggies cut out, ready to sew. That's my project for tonight...then the eyes and face. Let dry 2 days and they should be on their way by the first of next week, weather permitting.

    MJ..I have a really stupid question....why are your froggies drying for 2 days? Are you sewing them outside in the rain???
    (which will soon be ice? :shock: )

    How silly!! Their eyes are being glued on and their faces drawn on with marker - I want to give both substances plenty of time to dry before stacking and mailing.

    THE REAL REASON IS: I JUST GOT THEM OUT OF THE POND... :lol: :lol:

    Funny!
    The annual Feldsmere frog leg festival was last weekend but I didn't get there again this year!
    Your frogs are safe for another year!

    I must need more coffee - I do not seem to accomplish the blocks in the speed that you ladies do. I am half way through my set of 12 trucks and have the pieces cut out for the clothesline blocks. I hope to post a picture soon so I can get your feedback since this is my first swap. I really enjoy reading your comments - they always put a smile on my face.

    Wow, I am loving all the blocks. Somehow I haven't gotten notices about new posts to this forum so I had a lot of reading to catch up on. Guess I figured everyone was so busy sewing, that nothing new had been added! Anyway, I'm loving what I see for blocks. My flock of 12 chickens are coming along slow but sure. Great job everyone!

    Evidently I need more coffee, too. I just cut out all 24 frogs, 19 pieces in each block. When I started sewing, I realized I left out 3 pieces for each block, just totally skipped it in the directions. Now I have to figure out how scrappy these froggies will be...And I ended up with too many of some pieces???

    I'm stopping for the night. Tomorrow I'll tackle this froggie massacre after a good sleep.
    zzzzzzzzzzzzzz :-(

    MJ...I get it now...yes, we want dry eyed froggies. It sounds to me though like someone has been snitching froggy pieces from you...probably some country redneck who wanted some fried up..oh gosh, it could be my DH! :lol: :lol:
