Celia - Those are too cute!!! That is one block I have yet to try, maybe in a few years.
I did get the top together this afternoon, then DH wanted to go up to my moms place and weed the yard. I have to admit it needed it, I have been trying to do it when I visit her Monday thru Friday, but there has been just too much sun. 20 miles north of us was very overcast and drippy, so we were able to pull all the weeds and cut out all the trees. One project done for a few months. Now to do a lap of stitching around the top and give it a good press? Or save the pressing until tomorrow and keep sewing tonight.
Heather sorry your room is hot in the summer, hopefully it is very conformable in the winter which is longer than summer for you, so more sewing!
