Lawanna - Sorry to hear you can't join us this month. We can shoot for next month!

Valerie - GREAT BLOCKs - Pictures sure have a mind of there own. I am sure the pictures do not do justice for the block. Can't wait to see them in person!

Ack, Ack, Ack. You all are going to get a good chuckle out of this. We are all spoiled by El's tricks and shortcuts to save time so I thought, why don't I stitch these triangles with the double needle, and then just cut them apart. I guess it was a senior/blond/duh moment. So, I put the double needle in and stitched 2 of them when a little voice in my head told me to stop. Well, DUH!!!!! there is only one bobbin thread, but at least I only did 2. So, back to the regular way to stitch them. You know, there are just days when you think you are really very clever, but in reality, ... oh well. Then I lost 1 little triangle for the crown of thorns block. I don't know where it went but I only had 11 in one stack and needed 12. I am bound and determined to get these done this month. The more trouble I am having the more determined I am to get them done.

Well, boss just called and said to go home for the day as he won't be back so, Yipee!! I am out of here to try and get these blocks done. See you tomorrow.

Jo

Oh my goodness Jo - I am always trying to figure out how to make things quicker. El has me trained to find the easier way to go. I am so very glad the voice in your head screamed loud enough for you to hear it. WHew! Hope you find the missing block. Did you look in the dryer? I am always finding interesting items there - giggle :)

I LOVE YOUR DETERMINATION!!!! It is infectious for the rest of us to keep going - YEA!!!!! for you - ENJOY the rest of your "I get to go home early" Day!

Good evening, all.

Teresa - I mailed my two pinwheel blocks today. The tracking number is: 03093220000118870848, and it says it will get to you by Friday. Thanks so much for all the encouragement!

This was a lot of fun.
