i am so impressed with all you ladies and gentlemen doing the BOMS and eagerly await the BOMS just to see what everyone has done.. but i havent quite got the courage to do one yet..alas.. i think too much and dont do enough!! i think it is also great of all the ladies and gents that post pictures of their not so perfect blocks and air all their frustrations as it makes me feel that i am not the only one out there who cant get simple things to go right and leave it for a while and then go back to it with hopefully better results. Also none of my friends quilt and i am sure there are other quilters out there that are in the same boat and no one understands us like fellow quilters(!!) when we need to have a whinge or two when nothing seems to go right...
