ebellot - So sorry to hear about the rough start of your new year, glad everyone was ok though.
I like a combo of the two names "Rockin' Rowers"!
I haven't started my blocks as of yet, though I have started gathering all of my red, black, and white pieces and some block patterns I want to do.
Gramakitten - Christmas sounds great - give me a reason not to put the christmas fabric away yet! I love Christmas!
