Thanks, Elizabeth
Elizabeth thoughts and prayers are with you. I lost my mother in 90 to bone and lung cancer.
I am currently working on a quick quilt block that someone posted a couple of weeks back that they called another quilt square trick. It uses four colors and really works up quick. go to Googly Eyes & Glitter and type in another quilt square trick. Big hint. I first tried a 6 1/2 " square and ended up with a 14' finished square, then I tried a a 4 1/2" square and ended up with a 9" square. I am makeing a friend a quilt now using the center as a 4 1/2 " square. If you can't find the site, p.m. and I will send you more info about how to do it. That is if I can fin out how to get to my p.m.'s on this new board. Really very easy and quick. Keep postive thoughts and lots of prayers. Hugs Gerbie
