Absolutely sewbiz, I might have to live homeless b/c of the cost of living, but at least I would be warm and homeless!

You must have one amazing husband to lure you away from Maui, b/c I can guarantee you there is no man that I'd leave somewhere tropical for!!!!!

We met on Maui and got married there, so it was a mutual decision.... but we have often regretted it. :(

Hubby and I are water babies, would like a warm climate around water or have pool.

Jaba, I am unclear on your thinking about white fabric w/ your fabric? I think all my yellows are to bright, but I will check again to make sure.

Love it, Seasaw, love it. Roflol abt your story of this block's birth. Too funny. I'm going to use green in my sashing a and I prefer it not be in the block too. Thank you for this. I tip my bonnet to you!

Janice this ones for you. I sure hope you like it because it started out as being a frog in the garden.

LOL So how am I to put a frog in there without using green. A brown frog would look to much like a toad and they are ugly, they pee on you and give you warts, then I thought well how about a turtle? That idea was shot also because they are greenish too. SO I throw in my hat and thought it's this or nothing. Hope you enjoy my hat!!!!

My brain got a work out on this one so I'm going to take a few days off and let the blood settle back in.

Just a quick note to let everyone know I'm working on your pix for the gallery. Hope to be up to date later tonight.

One of the reasons we live in this part of Oregon is that we get 350 days a year of sunshine. We get 20 inches of rain,20 inches of snow,the summers have about 3-4 weeks of 90-100 degrees. We live 80 miles away from Portlabd...so minimal traffic. Ya gotta like the sticks!

I finished LJDugas' ballerina block today. It was a battle to the death, nearly mine! If I do this block again it will not have a one piece center, I think w/o that whole center the block would have been easier. I am disappointed w/ how it turned out. It is a variation of wedding ring block. I didn't end up using the white background like I thought about, b/c I found that amazing grey ombe'd fabric, so I made the background pink.
