I finished my jack in the box and the first extra block Plaid. I'll try working on the Crazy Anne block tomorrow (funny enough that is my MIL's name /giggle) I'll post pics tomorrow. I'm also branching out to some new things for the next arts and craft faires. I do dog accessories and one of them is a bow tie. Until now, they've been in cotton but now I'm trying leather! I hope it works well. I'm going to try my hand at leather collars too. It should be fun This is my stinky StringBean modeling his bow tie. [ATTACH=CONFIG]579210[/ATTACH] It's took me 20 mins. to get him to sit still for this.

The problem I am having since my last update is that when I right click nothing comes up. Left click either....

I was able to get my Jack in the box, Plaid and Crazy Anne block done. This sure is going to be a bright quilt. But, I guess that just means it's going to be a Spring/Summer.

This block was named correctly - it drove me crazy! I lost count how many times I took pieces apart or recut and took apart. It was just one block but I was determined to get it to the right size. It looked soooo easy, fooled me
