Anyway, came home and dug out a Joanns Quiltblocks kit I had bought 3 years ago, and went to work. Last night I went to put it together and realized I didn't buy the setting kit. Also, two of the blocks require 2 more of each block and the kit said make 2, not 4, and there is no more fabric. I have put alot of work into this, and really don't know what to do next. Should I scrap the project and start something new? The kit is called Mandarin Maze. I am so mad at myself right now, and the frustration level has gone through the roof. If any of you wonderful board members have any suggestions, I would like to hear them. I know this is a long post, but, I really don't know where else to turn.
All I can say is "Thankyou, thankyou, thankyou" The people on this board are truly amazing. I have had several responses to my dilema and a few of the board members are sending me the fabric or leftovers from their kits or various blocks @ no charge and some for a very low flat rate. I cannot express my gratitude enough for the generousity of this group. How does one ever repay their generousity? There are many "Angels" in this group, and I am very fortunate and proud to be a part of it.
