Well, I'm at best short (5'2"), so sitting on the floor isn't quite that bad. Most proper desks and tables are too tall. But I've got my eye on a table at the thrift store, it's a solid piece, it's just really beat up. My computer chair should fit just fine with it, so it's going to get a ride home tomorrow, and it's going in the corner.

Yeah, I was thinking if 6" blocks were too boring and tedious to ME, it's going to be worse for a rowdy 8 year old boy. 12" will get it done twice as fast, it gives him more room for the fun prints he still likes to show, and I'll just stitch down the windows a bit more. Not a big deal in my world.

Fun or an adventure
I've discovered brown, lime green and turquoise go together better than I thought they would at least.
