I promise to keep you posted. Has anyone heard from Betty lately? I was wondering if she was feeling better. Hope all is well.

She said she is crazy about polka dots so I think I will use the dots for the backing

or go on quilter cache and look up the smaller sized blocks...
You GALS are killing me!!! I am buried in Peaches and Nectarines here (freezing, jam making and also making Herman a Pie) .... in the middle of making a batch of Bread & Butter Pickles ..... became the parent of "two" absolutely darling kittens last Friday (I had to put my 17 Year Old kitty down a year ago and get teary every time I think about him.) .... and I'm putting on the the final touches of Jacquie's Row #4 - "Stars", so I can get them into the mail to Betty. I've got so many Quilting and Sewing projects on my platter (waiting for me) .... and on top of all that we were tied-up all last week with our Lions Club, eye screening and hearing testing "all" of the Kindergartin thru 5th Grade students here in the Twin Falls schools. This is a service we do every year for our young school children, making sure their eye sight is alright. If a child does have a problem and their parents can't afford the costs involved to correct the problem .... our Lions Club steps in and takes care of it financially. Okay .... got to get back to work in the kitchen.
