I love to talk about quilting as much as I love to do it :)

You can get priority shipping for $12 so less than $40 for 22 sheets. And I gladly pay for the convenience of having the right size to use the copier feature on my printer. JMHO
Thanks for the tip!

I believe the blocks come out to be either 4" or 4 1/2" There are books and software to make this quilt and it gives you the history of the quilt.
Thanks! It did show a picture, but no history, etc. Maybe I can google it and find out. But ... all I can say is ... "Oh my!!!" :shock:

Sounds like a great use of time to me as well as productive.
Cell phones are so over rated. LOL

Good for you, that is how I got my Cathedral Windows quilt done-took me a year, sitting waiting for kids in lessons.

What a great use of your time. I pray that your son is able to improve with all that therapy. Keep us posted on the progress.

Enjoy your piecing while you wait, just think of all the time you are not wasting but making something beautiful.
