I hope this helps

I have just been catching up looking through all the AOTH threads.
Wow Lesley and Patti - your centre blocks make a stunning sight. The different colourings give each of them a unique look - just beautiful.
I see the JTG club seems to be growing - lovely blocks everyone. They all make a great reference point for the rest of us and it's nice to see questions and answers ready and waiting to assist when we get to that point.
Sorry to read about "the cat incident" Kathy. Having had geriatric pets I understand these things just have to be accepted sometimes. Look forward to seeing more pics of your new blocks.

PS: I took my time and went through it carefully, pausing and watching and taking notes for supplies. I got the little scissors and LOVE them. :-D
