OH! We will definitely be over more during this summer. Mom loves to camp and they also like to stay close to home. They have a motor home but, won't motor very far :lol: so we plan at least one trip for camping. And will definitely give you a holler! :wink:

Hey Susan I had a similar experience only in a restruant bathroom. I fell in love with the mosic tile on the floor so I took a paper towel, laid it on the floor and with a pencil scratched out a rubbing from it. My hubby thought I was nuts. But we all know when inspiration hits us you just gotta act on it the best way you know how.

I have used pizza boxes for quite a while now. Also, a really good item is an Avon box that the representatives get their orders in the mail. They will hold a good sized project. I happened by a house where the Avon lady was throwing many of them away. I got all that my car would hold.

No not yet. But it's on my to do list. It was kinda hex shaped with triangles and diamonds. Each shape had a darker thin line around it, almost like stained glass. I thought I'd only make one big block and maybe frame it. Haven't decided yet what colors to use.

I did a baby blanket once with grandmas flower garden (has hexes). It started out hard to match up cuz I was sewing by machine. Half way thru I decided to sew it by hand instead. It worked alot better cuz you have more control over your stitches. I'm glad it was a small quilt or I never would have finished it. That's one reason why I'm only going to make one big block for my wall. I found my colors, 3 shades of blue, 2 shades of rose, 1 shade of gold and 1 black for the sashing.
