I'm so far behind, and doubt I'll be able to finish until end on Next year! My shoulder pain still doesn't let me spend much time working on this. I'm a bit bored of using only shades of black and grey. I LOVE watching all of your beautiful and fun blocks. If I get brave to do next year's, I'll do it more like you all did.
I love most of the ideas I've read for next year. When I saw one idea for Christmas blocks, I sat down to see if I could think of 12 possible ideas. Well, in 3 minutes I had 24!! true, some were a bit iffy due to applique and embroider, but most of them I've done in cross stich, which are actually just blocks and half, quarter blocks.
