Eat salad everyday here too! but hubby also has to have meat and either potatoes or rice. Elisabrat found the block you wanted and have it but can't get it to attach to a PM message. Send me your e-mail and I will send it to you. Haven't found the book you wanted though, google it and it will take you to their web site, but it wasn't listed as spooky halloween but they have some on there that you may be talking about.

If it makes you feel any better, or maybe at least gives you a laugh, my husband's urologist did a metabolic workup to figure out why he's got such bad and frequent kidney stones. The long story, short version is that he needs to drink less draft (light) beer and stop eating any green vegetable. My husband says he looked at the doc and said, "So you're saying that I need to start eating food that eats the food that eats the green stuff." In other words, he should start eating animals that are carnivores, not herbivores.

I guess that means sharks, lions, tigers, and hawks. So, where can I get a good lion steak in Montana?

themommahauser my husband would do flips if a doctor said no dark green veggies.. it is pulling teeth to get him to eat any veggies, dark light you name it. I think you have to go to Texas for all that manly meat lol your cowboys are probably into designer foods. I had once found a website you could buy any exotic meat thats legal. key word. I have tried lots of them but stopped at eating zebra. oH no. those are adorable donkeys .. not eating a donkey or a rat if I can possibly help it. yipes.

ok back to business here received a very pretty block which once again did I post it or didnt I? argh pirates don't recall so wanted to honor the work by putting it in just to be double sure. it was by sustraley and its going to work great with all the other buzzing bees I however just tried to upload the photo and it says file failed grrr.. it works fine when I open it.. off to investigate maybe a new pic .. its pretty you guys.

Hi Old cat Lady,
went thru all my fat 8ths and nothing from you. I keep all mine in original envelopes and replace them back in envelopes as I make the blocks. Then when I am done I take old envelope and replace with new one to send out.
I have not recieved the following,

Old Cat Lady
Areinn
Pink Lotus

Is Pink Lotus in our group I have her written in since a note from April saying we needed to add her since she forgot is that true?
Its just wierd that I dont have her Fat 8th either.

Penny if you send a picture of your fabric I can see if I have something similar, I have alot of Batiks.
This is the 1st one someone has sent that got lost...I am so sorry.

jaba

Yes daisey she is in our group pink lotus that is. Might send her a PM and tell her you don't have 1 from her. She did send out late but I got 1 about 3 weeks ago.
elisabrat sent you the pattern via e-mail, those sizes on there (8, 10, 12 etc) are finished size, so they will sew to 12 1/2" unfinished. If you sew exactly 1/4" I have been about 1/8" short, so on mine I have sewn a scant 1/4" and then trim. Hope this helps. Have 1 more block to put together today and then need to get the wedding quilt on the table and get it quilted. Going to take forever to hand sew the binding, it's an oversized king! Lots of nights sitting on my behind, hope something good is on the tele....check in later

daisey

what do you mean elisdabrat sent out patterns for whos and are we supposed to do a certain pattern for that person, I thought it was our choices on patterns,,maybe I am not understanding. I will email Pink Lotus..to let het know I didnt get hers either,,I wonder if pennys and Pink otus are getting returned for postage that can happen too, I did have to pay for about 4 people but I dint care, but sometimes they dont give us that option and just send back. This would be the 1st boom I have done where fat 8ths didnt get to me.

We should be called the Healthy Diamonds, with all our food allergies. I had Kidney stones and my Doctor told me that I have to slow down on the exercise... I went to another Doctor! I was just not getting enough water for the amount of exercise! I think that a Doctor should never tell some one to quit exercising, maybe if he had approched the subjet a little differently, like told me to drink more water!

I am slow about getting into making the remaining blocks I have, yesterday it was my best intention to sew a few blocks, but the fairy princess just sat there looking at me until I picked it up and started playing with it! Charleigh, who is almost 3 (and a Girl!) told me on the phone the other day she wants to be a dragon! and I am working so hard at making her a fairy princess... So I figured that I would make her both! After all isn't it everyones goal to slay their own dragons! Why not start learning to do that at 3?

OK Brat girl! What am I going to do with you! How can I make you a Halloween DQ if you don't like creepy things? And If I was real mean and made it out of just candy... Well that would be too cruel... So I am back at the drawing board, as I finished up the last one I made and realized it is covered with Spiders!

I am thinking maybe cute little pumpkins and Ghosts? would that work for you

oldcatlady

not a problem daisey. I have another one I'll send out. I think it must be lost because I would have gotten it back by now if it was sent back d/t postage. I'll send it out tomorrow. I have so much going on, I plan on taking the whole time to do mine. I have 3 made so far but am holding on to them because I'm looking for a camera to buy and want to take pictures before I send them off.

Daisy it is your option on what block you want to make. "brat" just wanted to make a certain block and I didn't have the pattern, asked if I had it and I did so sent it to her.
