ceannastahr,
I love your block. I like the way the pink bees blend but I like the way the yellow guys stand out more. :lol: I know, I'm being really helpful here, aren't I?
Thanks for the wise words of wisdom earlier. Yes, payback will happen. One daughter and her family live in Alexandria, Va. and we will go back next spring for a visit before they leave for middle east again.
I really don't mind giving up the sewing room for three weeks. I'll survive, I'll have 5 grandkids and 4 daughters to play with. Life will be great! Plus I've got some hand applique I'll keep close by for those moments when everyone has gone for a walk or something! (I should add that the poor son-in-laws all have to stay at home and work this summer. :? )
Looking forward to seeing your finished block. Happy stitching.
