I know it will take longer since I had to send out the replacement center. No rush on it at all-thank you everyone for all of your hard work on my behalf-it really is appreciated!

I'm so happy it got there safely Sarah. She will speak to you soon. I'm excited to see what you do with it. That quilt is so much fun. April, I've been meaning to ask where you got those butterflies..they are pretty and look great in the varigated thread.

Hi Patti,
Sorry I loose this thread from time to time. I had purchased the butterflies on Ebay from a lady who sold embroidery work. I loved the colors in them and have used them in two projects now :-)

After looking frantically enough to work up a sweat, I calmed down a bit, contemplating my next plan of attack. Should I make another center, should I wait until tonight after the meeting? SHould I make another center JUST in case I can't find the center at the Post? oh, decisions, decisions!
As I am pondering my next move ... what shall I do? Is it time for a cigarette out in the shop? Maybe the cattle need watered ... I happened to look up at my - - what is that board called where you put things on to look at for awhile? It is insulation board covered with flannel? You know what I mean? I had been eyeing that carpenter's wheel block hanging there for weeks, but they weren't as good as the one I wanted to send.
FINALLY! I decided ... from a distance, and in the dark, that block looked pretty good, so I might as well use it ... and hate myself for the rest of my life because I am such a dweeb!
I unpinned the block, set it up on the lounger to take a picture, and did a double take ... why that block looked EXACTLY like the block I wanted to use! closer look .... hmmm, that IS the block I wanted to use! Well, isn't that just wonderful????
it is one of those moments where I thought I was wrong, but I had made a mistake .... wouldn't you LOVE to spend a week around me???? ROFLOL
