So now I've made the missing block again and I am going through the quilt sewing the rows together. So far no extra block. I put the potato chip bag on top of the frig. I only had that on the first floor.
I did lose two ink cartridges once for several months. Then on a trip to the freezer in the garage, I spied a bag that didn't look quite right. Yep! There were the ink cartridges controlled by the temperature.
