I drug out a UFO last night and got 3 rows put together on it when I saw I was running out of white 2 1/2 inch blocks. I went into my sewing room and my blocks were GONE! My DH used them in one of his quilts. All of the other blocks I have are a different shade of white. Any suggestions as to what to do? I was using the white blocks as a sort of sashing to seperate some 25 patch blocks as a way to use up some of my smaller scraps. I hate to tear them out and start over with a different color. Help!!!

I would fall over dead if my DH would even walk in my quilt room. I know it puts you in a bind but I wish my husband would share my interest. I think I would try to find a white as close as possible and continue on with my quilt. Best of luck in your search!

I don't know what to do about this one but next time I'd mark my blocks. Put them in a bag or a box and write the name of the quilt that they're intended for on the outside.
Could you maybe use a fabric just a shade darker for the next three rows, then another a little darker for the next three and so on until you get to the end so that it's a shade change effect? It might turn out really cool. Or go a little darker each row until your reach the last three and have them all the same dark shade.

is he like passive-aggressive?
Do you normally cut his quilt blocks for him and that's why he assumed that he could take those? If so, you may not have a complaint.... If not, you have another problem...
