Well, my Double T blocks are done, but I gotta say they were not as much fun as I had anticipated. In fact, I wound up hating them! If I have a choice, I don't think I'll ever make these again!

I have attempted to cut my blocks not once, not twice, but now 3 times. And yet, when I go to sew them together, what do I find? I FORGOT to cut something! I feel like karma, or serendipity, or fate, or whatever, is trying to tell me something.

Into a gigantic ziplock bag it all goes for a minimum of 30 days. That's right ladies, I put my blocks in time-out. Naughty blocks.

Too funny LOL!!! Usually I give up after 3 times and throw it away. But I will have to try time out next time also and see if it works.
