    As long as I am here, I might as well post the weekly note of encouragement. Tomorrow begins week #19. This week is for making the top & bottom inner borders. Again, photos of your borders are welcome here on the main thread.

    I was thinking earlier this week that I sure would have liked to do these borders with the small squares on point all around. I could have done them on the machine & been finished with them! Oh, well, I do have the last round of shark tooth borders cut & marked. Just need to press & pin, then stitch. I thought I would do a biggie border & a shark tooth border, then back to another biggie border, & so on.

    Happy stitching! :lol:

    Here is my center with the border on, again, just in case you have forgotten. ☺

    OK, you are officially on "the list!" Are you going to do hand or machine applique? What size blocks are you making? We are a bunch of nosy people! :-)

    I second that.

    OK, did another count today,lol, and I have 13 blocks to go, four of which have bobbin work done already and templates cut. I am getting really excited :-P Need to seriously think about my setting triangles and outer border designs. May be borrowing ideas, lol.

    Is this "time" something we can buy? Do they carry it at Walmart? Wouldn't it be great if we could buy a can or jar or crate of it?
