Bee, hope to post a picture of your block this weekend. You are going to have such a lovely quilt. Will miss you while you take a break.
Gajin - thanks for my block it is wonderful. I'm headed your way next week. If I get stuck in town due to the weather I will send you a PM. I will be in the Yokosuka area but fly through Narita and if I have time stop at the Pearl Lady (Yoko in Tokyo for shopping. Bet you know where to find some fabric stores, I don't speak Japanese so always have a hard time with the consierge explaining what I am trying to find.
Hope to finish all the blocks this weekend so they will be ready to ship when I return from my travels.
