Hi Robert, your still going strong. Yes!! rested and back to making my swaps. Working on poodle for your Cathy, mailing doll quilt tomorrow, to Leslie, made 2 purse blocks & they are adorable, fell in love with them. So next is finishing up Dresdens tomorrow or this week anyway. Hey, got a question on the Dresdens, are you blanket stitching around the pointy top edges all around only, and not stitching in between each one too??? Let me know sweetie. Yes!!! show us all your poodles gathered in your living room. Boy!! are you going to have a feed bill come the first of the month. You better go back to something that doesn't eat so much. Hi Cathy, how you be??? Hope your better.
love, Shirley

It has a flap & large rubber band thingy over the top so nothing falls out, came with a.b.c. stickers and monthly stickers too. I had already been using index cards so now they have a place where they live and don't walk off somewhere. I take that down to my sewing room in the basement and I have every ones names/screen names and information that I need. It's a good way to keep up on everybody since it changes every month or so. It also goes shopping with me for fabric colors I may need for swaps. size of this is, 6X10.5 and has 12 pockets, was $4.50 then 50% off. Great deal to me.
Hope this information helps someone from thinking they are the only ones that have this problem. We all have this affliction

Shirley, you just make me smile. I will take a pic tomorrow of all the Pinkies.
yes I blanket stitch all around the top of the points and the cirlce in the middle and the leaves.
It really goes pretty fast, And makes for a antique quilt look.
Cathy had chemo on thursday andshe had a adverse reaction now has an infection in her throat, saw the doc today and she said if the temp doesn't go down by tomorrow they will admitt her to the hospital.
So say some prayers.
Love
Me and Cathy

Hey Miss Dot,
I will post pics of poodles and cats tomorrow.
I haven't put the cats together yet. It's on my list.
I've been working on the round robin to get the next section to Judy.
I will get to it soon.
THanks about the quilts in thegallery. I will have to figure it out to post them.
Thanks for all you do Dot
