    After putting the sealer on and letting it dry good, we painted the colors using exterier paint. It should last quite a while. We're on to our second block now.

    How clever. I am not a quilt shop owner, but we just built a large shop in the lower meadow, and now I know how to build a neat walkway from the garage and carport. Thanx for the inspiration.

    Great idea. My LQS has blocks painted on the sealed cement floor in the shop. It's really cute.
