For the most part it is best to go by the rules and trim. I am thinking how hard it would be for me while measuring them. (I have been as they come in.)
So far there are two people who need to send the extra money for postage. They are short on thier packages to return them right. I will pm you and see if you can send the make up amount so your blocks will go out on time. OK?

The background fabric is TBD. I like the dark purple batik but I'll leave that for the end.
What do you think? I'm open to suggestions to improve my little guy.

I just strip sewed those muslin strips on... it's secure for sure. I'll probably wash this just to check what it does after a few washes.

Neat-looking mummy! :mrgreen:
Got my Sues finished up yesterday, so that completes my four sets. :) I think Robert's just about finished with his sets, too. He's got a ghost, a mummy, a haunted house scene, and something else that I can't remember offhand ... I'll have to go look and see what's in his pile. :mrgreen:
ETA: Ah. His newest set is a Frankenstein's monster. :)
