    I finished the cattepillar block and I have to tell you, I think you will love it. I am posting pic with this message, here's the story. I went on the net to fnd th original illustration and typed in Original Catterpillar from lewis carroll's book alice in wonderland and the very first hit said" Glen Harris embroidery designs, so I went there and guess what...This man lives in Austrailia and had digitized all of the original illustrations , he wanted 75.00 dollars for the set of 24, I knewI couldn't afford that so I used his email contact and wrote him a note about what you were doing for Molly and in less than 5 minutes he wrote back and gave me th cattepillar desing as a gift for your quilt. It took 165 mintues, actually more like 4 hours to embroidery it but I think it turned out spectacular, just like looking at an isllusration.
    Hope you like itl. Will mail on tuesday along with the cheshire cat .

    Got another package in the mail from one of my Fav's LJD, someone told her I love peacocks and I DO. I think they are so regal and exquisite, and low and behold Look what came in the mail, this beautifl peacock fabric. I just sit here starring at itWorking on the 4 border of a round robin, and A sunflower portrait of Vangoh's . She Also sent Cathy a really nice chemo along with the pattern. Another Angel delivery. I just want you swappers to know I BRAG about you guys all the time. I wish I had the money to have a family reunion in the mid west and bring you all there so we could meet our new famly.
    YOU ARE WORTH IT.
    love
    Robert and Cathy

    Hi Robert and Cathy......

    Feel like I know ya, and please know that there are some schoolkids here in CA that are praying for you......loved the pics, it makes it great to know who we are praying for.

    On a happy note, I just finished the two blocks I promised you that have adorable poodles.......but Iam stumped for names. If you pm me with your address, they will go out today.
    I am not a poodle person, but I showed my momma (83 and stricken with cancer as well) and she LOVED them, so hope they will do.
    Love seeing the artistry of your blocks.......
    you are the best!!!!!

    [quote=cowgirlquilter]Hi Robert and Cathy......

    Hey there,
    I just want you to know we love you gals and guys. It has been such a inspiration to have met you all. There is power in prayer so thank all the kids, there is nothing more powerful than Kids Praying.
    What part of Cali, we live there for 18 years in Atascadero and PasoRobles, mid state near the coast.
    Thanks for caring and can't wait to see the Puppies....
    Will send now PM.
