This gives me a good idea if I really want to make a whole quilt with the blocks. Some I have to say, heck no it would take me forever to make a whole quilt since most of my quilts are 100"x100". It's all fun and I like the experience it is giving me.
So now you know, hope you still like them and thanks for all the compliments.
Ok this is the last one for this group, sad but true.
I love love love it! WOW! That's really awesome. Thanks so much!
Sorry I haven't posted in a few days. Something very interesting happened a couple of days ago, and it's keeping me on my toes! (It turns out that I'm VERY glad I got my blocks finished for both groups, even though I had no idea THIS would happen!)
A "little something" turned up beside my front porch ... literally within a couple of feet of my doorstep. A newborn kitten! I waited for hours the mom to show back up, but she never did, and I knew the kitten wouldn't survive much longer. It was behind the shrubbery, and with my bad knee, I had a terrible time getting the kitten out (it's a miracle in itself, actually), but I finally was able to get him. Both I and the vet estimated him to be 2 days old at the time I retrieved him, so he's 4 days old now. We both think he's a boy, but it's hard to say for sure yet. The mom never turned back up. I don't know if she abandoned him, if she was hit by a car (we're just 2 houses away from a busy street), or what happened. DH looked all through the shrubbery when he got home from work that day, and didn't find any other kittens, or any signs that there had been others. We'll probably never know exactly what happened.
I'm bottle-feeding him every 2 hours, so he's definitely keeping me busy. The vet said that as young as he is, he may or may not make it, but said that I'm doing everything right as far as taking care of him. I'm doing my best, and we're just taking it day by day. So far, so good!
He sleeps in a box with soft fabric and a little teddy bear he loves to snuggle with. The box is halfway on a heating pad, so he can move to the other side if he feels too warm. Isn't he simply precious?
