    Your blocks look great. Are you making them larger than the original size blocks?

    That is most awesome thing I have seen ! Now I am thinking of extra wall space I have. Gotta plan while I decide to do the easiest blocks )))

    I have a cross stitch my Mom asked for in 1993 after she learned one of my brothers was terminally ill. Thought you might like to see it, Kitsie. Thanks for all your pix.

    I have been following the progress of your Dear Jane with fascination and awe.

    thanks for showing us this design/display idea, too.
    i would never have thought to extend around a corner.
    a stroke of pure genius!
