Then you'll be joining me! I have to admit however that I have jumped the gun. I didn't intend to, but once started it was like eating chips---I couldn't stop. But I haven't chosen a border fabric or decided how I'm going to proceed beyond the blocks. That's the part that will take me forever.

I'm glad you posted a new link for the cots Lesley, thanks. I'll have to go look. Ducks, does that mean you get cheaper shipping?? LOL!

I'll post a pic of the extra blocks on the gallery thread when I finish this one Lesley. Then if anyone wants to copy, they can. I can scan in the line drawings of them if anyone wants the designs too.

You could try VetRap, its a stretchy bandage type product that we use to wrap around wounds on animals, you could also check your local shops that carry bandages for the stretchy bandages, they work really well and stick to them selves, very inexpensive, and super easy to use, I like they ease and thinness which make it easy to gripe the needle, and if you use them on your finger under the fabric, no needle pokes :D

I'm sending a link to Sue Nickels site - if you click on the link and play the intro to her video you will see how she wears her latex glove fingers in the preview.
i use machingers but they tend to get hot. When I took her class, I sewed with her "fingers" and they really do work great and stay on - but they are cut longish..

btw - got my lilly swirls and washed the background!!!

The schedule is at the end of Kathy's first post on page one - you need to download it by clicking on it.

Don't worry about printing everything from day one, you only need one pattern per week.
