  2. Wonderful blocks. I am chuckling to myself as I look at the bits of thread on your design board. It's normally all over my clothes if I even walk through the sewing room. Last night I cam up from the sewing room and my husband said 'what's that on your tee shirt?' and I said 'Quilter's jewelry'.

  3. Thank you so very much. I am really having a lot of fun with this Sow-a-long. Your efforts are very appreciated. PS- Sorry about the "anonymous" thingy but I don't have a blog account, just follow about 3 or 4 and I am "computer challenged" so this is the only way I know how to say "THANKS!" in a big way.

  5. Pretty blocks, I like these. I was glad that you were off having a life and didn't post any bonus blocks last week, though. I've had company and couldn't get in much sewing. Off for 10 days in northern Michigan next week, though, just me and my little machine, so bring 'em on!

  6. I plan to start next week! This looks like lots of fun. I have been keeping an eye on this project for a few months and found the book at your favorite WI quilt shop!

  7. Just got back from Moscow, Idaho last night. This morning I had two soccer games for the grands. So now I am looking at the calender realizing I missed a "Sow-Along" post while I was gone.
