I worked until 3:00 this morning, cut all my fabric and have 1 block finished. Yipee! I haven't worked that late in ages, but it was fun! While I was at Lone Star Mercantile yesterday, another quilter came in with the finished center of the CWJ quilt. It was a great 'show and tell', I was thrilled to meet someone else who is making this quilt.
While I was cutting last night/this morning I watched a History Channel program about 'WWII - 24 hrs. after Pearl Harbor' as I cut my fabric. It brought to mind the atrocities of war and I realized 4 years serving in the Civil War must have been horrible for my gggrandfather.
