"I'm so new at quilting I thought CARPING was a block ??? Now that's funny.. Anyway u look it."

I thought this was sooo funny that I wish I had the creativity to make up a "carping" block.

Thanks for the laugh :lol:

I thought that the poster meant..."harping"...as in to grumble or complain. It was very funny though, the first thing that came to my mind was the fish also. LOL LOL LOL :)
