Thanks Martina, but is isn't anything quilty or quilt board related. Im not too proud to ask for help, so I will keep you in mind if the occasion calls for it. I received your farm blocks today- they're great. Thank you so much for the stamps for the lottery- it will help boatloads!! Thanks again!!

Thanks for the well wishes everyone, I will be back soon. :)

BRT -- hope things are better for you soon. Like Martina, I would be happy to help you anyway I can.

Goldendog55 -- I'm sending a block out to you today.

Regarding the March lottery blocks (purple/green hearts) -- do I ONLY use purple and green, or do I put a scrappy heart on a cream muslin background? I'm confused.

I'm trying paper piecing for the first time for my February block swap, and really like it - but I have a question for those of you who are more experienced with it ---- what is your favorite paper to use and why?

Thanks in advance for any suggestions or advice your experience can offer - any tips or hints, as well as paper preferences, are appreciated.

Quilty Hugs,

Cindy
