Feedback scores are usually for buying, selling or trading. I gave you a +1 as thread hostess! :D

I've got to ask you ladies - how do you get those feedback scores? suppose I could look it up - does that mean you sell on the site or do swaps?
I've strayed from Jane once again... :( [feedback score = -100]

LOL I'm right here :) Haven't done any Jane blocks in a very long time but started again yesterday! Life got in the way big time! My DS and DDIL had twins 14 weeks early on January 20th, they came home May 27th, doing great!!

I didn't know you were born here! Where? Or did you tell and I forgot? My brain isn't what it used to be :(

Thanks for sharing these links. Amazing! Lots of ideas here for how to finish up.

Den Haag, Anael - and I do know we talked about it before...tried to look back through my postings but noticed lots of them have been eliminated from my profile... so gotta rely on memory ?? seems like you lived near one of my many cousins near Deventer or Rotterdam maybe??
Congrats on the twins!! Happy they are home - are they the ones in your avatar?

Monica, I'm living in the eastern part of the Netherlands, near Deventer (about a half hours drive from here). Now I remember we talked about it before :) My late hubby was born in Den Haag.

Yes, the twins are the ones in my avatar. Bram is still on oxigen and has to be admitted to hospital again to see if he can do without. His lung tissue is badly damaged from being on the ventilator a very long time and a fungus infection in his lungs. Isa had to have surgery twice since she was born but is doing great now :)

You were up late, Anael!! It is both very scarey and amazing how these babies are able to grow and most often thrive after being born so very young...God bless you all! My daughter and I watched "Private Practice" dvds last night - the last season one of the main characters had delivered one of her triplets at 26wks - I thought of you - also 14wk early and so very tiny...[and in the end they are all fine]
I see from your avatar they have a boy and girl :). I can certainly understand why DJ is on hold. Are they near Deventer as well? My cousins live on Grote Ratelaar... Ed Stehmann was controller in the hospital's sterilization dept until he retired about 8 or so years ago [of equipment, not people! I always thought it to be a weird name]

I will attach a picture of our three grandsons...

Lovely grandsons you have!!

My DDIL was expecting triplets too but Julian (identical twin with Bram) died on December 12th. He was born on January 20th also and was layed to rest on May 25th, the day Bram and Isa were home for the very first time on weekend leave. Life has been hard but we still have the twins and we're very grateful for that.
They're living in the next town, about 10 minutes away from here.

Anael, your grandchildren are beautiful! I'm sure these last several months have been frightening and stressful for you and your family and I'm so glad they're doing well now. And, Gus, your grandsons look like real sweeties (and just a little mischievious!).

Here are the blocks for the week of June 16:

Thank you katybob! Yes it was frightening and stressful. We've just started to try and get back to a normal life.

Your blocks are great! I just looked over all my blocks and I can see I did make some bad fabric choices on some of the early ones.

Gladys, your blocks are beautiful as they all are :)
