I totally agree QNS. There's still a lot of trail left, and plenty of PC blocks to sew. Sometimes though, my brain needs some lead time!!
In regards to block names I wonder, how many were made in different areas maybe around the same time, but each given a different name--the "great minds think alike" theory?

And when you start googling ... you get such different looks for all.

Yes, we don't want to impede on the PC, though if OKSGlad is willing to take up the challenge, I know it will take some lead time and planning to put it together. Plus, it doesn't mean that we wouldn't do another project led by Honchey. We're all Masters (or should I say Mistresses) at Multi-Tasking!

Separate subject ... Thread Alert!!!!!!!

QuiltE...I ordered from Tristian when they had a special sale, and it averaged out to about $5 a spool. I love it.

Thanks GGal ... Any of the stores that have it here, it's about $10 each, so this is a really good sale price! Even paying the extra shipping fees, it's still way less than we pay. So I'll likely be ordering. Lucky Works4Me as she lives near them and spotted an Open House sale day in a couple weeks and is planning to go!
