    Nice dive! Great form, a little high on the splash but I'd give it a good solid 9.
    You just aren't living unless you have to kick to the surface once in awhile in order to breath. :lol: :lol: :lol:
    :mrgreen: well I guess I should be glad that it wasn't a 10!! :twisted: and I think you can breathe through fabric, right??
    That a good one. Just glad you joined up. With 3 BOM's, 1 scraps club, 1 painting club and other things like housework, laundry, etc. sometimes my DH thinks I'm in over my head too. I just tell him he could always do the housework, the vacumm handle fits a man's hand too. :lol: :lol: :lol: Can't wait to see everyone's blocks.

    The last time my DH vacuumed, he sucked up the vacuum cleaner cord and now it's bandaged in several places with electrical tape! LOL. But I have no complaints. He's absolutely the best and so supportive of my projects. I DO really need to get some housework done before quilting today. I really should . . . I ought to . . . I might . . . maybe . . . (as she skips to the sewing table with glee).

    Housework is done, the fabric I bought yesterday is washed, dryed and folded. SS, DIL and GS will be here about 6:30 for dinner. All I can think of is the houses I want to make and I'm too tired with not enough time. Should have done the sewing first. At least DH is ordering pizza and even though I don't care for it, tonight it will taste like steak.

    I finished my first 6 blocks today. 9 1/2"sq The first one was really a monster but once I quit obsessing and just did them it was really fun. I have to work on three BOM's now but I want to make more later on.
    We're not supposed to tell what they are or post pix are we?
