Reneebobby - glad the block arrived! No rush on the one you're sending. I completely understand the math-not-working issue. (Happens with my checkbook, too... hmmm.) :lol:

Mad Quilter is right - it is so simple and lots of fun. I did a quilt last year with children doing all kinds of activities and donated it to St. Judes through the local Hancock Fabric Store. I guess the kid in me just likes to color so why not? I am working on a plaid cat quilt for my sister who is going through Chemotherapy and it really looks cool with the crayon colors. Try it - you may like it!

Thanks for the info MadQuilter and Tam1960. Sounds very interesting. I already do fabric painting and colourque - does this mean I now have to buy crayons? I think it does!
