I forgot to mention this earlier, but when you have F8 packages meant for a specific person, please mark them very well, maybe wrap an elastic band around them or put their name on a piece of tape across both sides, anything to really make them stand out. It wasn't until I was stuffing envelopes and sealing them, I discovered a few marked baggies so I was able to switch those out. I may have missed others. Some had names marked at the very top but they came out folded over and the names were not visible. With over 600 F8s to sort, I do NOT look at each and every baggie for names. Please make it very difficult for me to miss! Thanks!

I've got a couple of Dresdens in the works but not saying for who.

You can subdue him and make a terrific block. I have complete faith in you. :)

I have good news and bad news............... The site I went on to figure out how to draw a dresden template said the standard blade was 3.5 x 1 x 5 long, and this would make a 20 blade dresden that would fit in a 12.5 inch square. So I busy myself cutting and making 30 blades (enough for 1.5 blocks while I look for the perfect fabric for the other 10 blades) anyway, it worked up great, nice flat plate, but only takes 12 blades, so now I have all these extra blades. Oh well guess to many is better then not enough.

Don't think about Tim Gunn. Try thinking about Frida Kahlo. She's more fun anyway right? Well at least more dramatic.

I have to admit I had to google her, lol. Those pics were less "boisterous" then the day of the dead pics I was googling before. Makes me happier since I have issues w/ chaos. I may not own a box, but I have neat piles! lol lol lol

Terri, and MJP, I have sneak peeks for you guys. These aren't finished yet, but you can see sorta where I'm going w/ them. Terri, I am using the same red for a background, just have to get more the piece I have isn't wide enough. MJP yours is going to be brighter I'm working on a fussy cut center medallion and I have the background chosen just waiting until the medallion is done.

Awesome dresdens, Kass! Love the way you quartered the center circle on Terri's, so the pattern would be circular. You're amazing.
