Cheese I had a similar expierence but had to have a friend retrieve the package and take it the post office to have them forward it to me. Frustrating.

TG -- great blocks for Janice. Your points are so perfect, too.

Terriamn, Your block for Nelco is dazzling and that BOOM quilt quilting is amazing! Your granddaughter is going to love that quilt!! Makes me feel like singing..... Winnie, Winnie, Winnie, Winnie, Winnie the Pooh!

I can't wait for time to start piecing! I brought a load of supplies with me to work on but I may not get to play until this weekend and so back to MS it all goes, lol.

My bubble suit is on and I am taking lots of vitamins to keep me healthy. EmergenC is every morning while I'm feeling like I'm fighting every virus on the planet. Anyone get an achy scalp when fighting off a virus? I feel like every hair follicle is spinning and repositioning. More water! More Lysine! More tape on the bubble suit to keep my illnesses to myself.

When I had two working machines, I found switching between them often caused some trouble as the edge of the fabric wasn’t the same place to give me a scant 1/4 inch. If you haven’t done so, try using two perfectly cut 2-1/2 inch squares and sew them together. The resultant rectangle should measure precisely 2-1/2 by 4-1/2. Too small, decrease your seam allowance. Too big, increase it. And be sure to press (not iron) and then measure with the acrylic square. When you find the sweet spot, make a note and take a pic of where the edge of your fabric must be to give you the correct seam allowance. Try a few more samples and you should be ready to sew.

Hav, I love be my block. It’s wonderful. I’m already getting excited about my blocks for the green and touched of blue!

Ibex, take care of yourself. Hopefully your vitamin C will help knock out the cold.

Terriamn, your Pooh quilt is terrific! Congratulations on a great quilt.

Here’s a block for Hav. All those little chilies!

My seam ripper is getting tired - might just have to get a new one, or two
Christmas - I recalled putting my Christmas fabrics in a drawer and actually found them! Got three done.
Made two for SewBiz - did anyone else catch the fact that there was 12 inebriated men? I found material with golden rings to add to them.
Lstew - had just enough of this fabric - and it has a quilting Mrs Clause.

Sewbiz wanted a simple block to accent your great fabric. Hope you like it
