Julie ... Love the DP! I'm old school, too, and still pin. I'm pretty fast at it now that I've made lots of blocks with curves over time....but I still take my time, too. Will be awesome when finished.
Connie....fantastic finish! Really vibrant and bright!
I'm working on attacking some precuts I've had awhile. Right now, I'm on a layer cake and just need to do borders. I believe I found the pattern I want to do for the gazillion 2 1-2" squares I have been cutting. I'll do leader/ender and get that going...
