Janey, I'm cringing just thinking about your finger. Did it happen in the sewing room? Hope it wasn't too much. Good luck healing. Many years ago I took a bit of flesh off my index finger on a table saw. Makes me shudder to think about it.
Meanmom, love the colors in your Idaho star. Your rainbow fabric is going to pick up every color. It's beautiful.
