I was pressing the latest 6 blocks (WHICH ARE DONE!) and I happened to glance at the stuff under one of my tables where my scraps are and lo and behold, there is a piece of the ivory I need!

I then remembered that I had cut that last piece in half to iron and starch since there is no reason to work with too large of pieces. There IS enough to finish the body and the last 6 blocks! I am so disgruntled! If I had known that I had that piece then all of the blocks would be done right now because I would have done all 12 at once instead of just six of them!

Hopefully, all the blocks will be done this morning. Soon as I have some coffee.
You're too young to sound like me!
