Peg: Even with your trip you still beat me LOL I just cut my fabrics last night from my stash and will piece this on Friday when I go to retreat. I will probably wait to quilt it though until I get home and can use my Tiara. This will be great practice for feathers. Keep at it and you will notice the same improvement as you did in the last one. New skill.......new learning curve. I totally support your decision to supplement with a Snickers ! I see you changed your colors too.........me too.
