Judy, sorry to hear that your surgery is slowing you down. It does not sound like fun!

As for the wedding ring and Dresden plate rows, that is my quilt and I clearly said NO STRESSING on my quilt. Grab some black, white, grey or any combination there of and go for it! Log cabins will work just dandy. I have never made anything log cabin so it will be a new, fresh additon to thing around here.

Lisa you are sweet and kind! Yes that I exactly what I will do!

Ok, so from all of that what I am understanding is: I don't need to use "Asian" blocks but ideally I would use Asian fabrics. Is that right? I should mention that I have friends in Japan who just sent me several yards of fabric for Christmas... from Japan :) Yea! for a chance to use them!

It seems to me if the fabric is Japanese whatever blocks it becomes has to be at least half Asian, doesn't it?

I agree Lisa! Go for it mama!

Does anyone know if there is a way to put a picture from my computer in a private message on here?
TIA for any help .
Happy Sewing

Pat, to the best of my knowledge you can't send a picture in a PM. You might want to contact the person in PM and ask for a private e-mail address if you need to send a picture to one person.

Pat if you want post the pic on here. But this GD is 9 going on 19 so don't worry about if its to grown up. She'll love it

Hi These may be to old looking for her. My dd is in her 40's and my grand and great grands are 2 and 3 so I'm not sure.
