    I am happy to say that I was very productive last night. Even after getting home late, spending time outside with new horse, making dinner, cleaning up the kitchen, setting up for quilting (and going to be on time) - I now have Dotty's main block 3 quarters of the way done. I probably would have finished it last night, but I got a little too excited and made a couple mistakes and wasted time ripping out.

    I will have the main block done tonight and then it's decision making time for how to finish. Think I will bring it to work and let my students decide :)

    Can't wait to see it Connie. The pix looked like it would come out VERY nice. I know that Dotty will love it.

    Wow you all are moving right along. My pal and I are making pot holders and I haven't even picked out fabric for sure yet.If I were making a runner or wall hanging I'd get thrown out for taking 3 months.Mary

    lol Mary, we would never throw you out :) Life happens and things take time. Last month I struggled so bad. Finally with the help of several people I pulled something together. It will be mailed tomorrow.

    I've started working on Shamrock's wall hanging and I'm really happy with it so far. Maybe I should be making two of them so I could keep one.....????

    LOL - My first embroidered blocks. Why sure I'll share. LOL
    I'd probably share the chocolate first. I was so excited to see this fabulous pkg I got. I like, everyone else also envy those super pkgs some folks get. Defineately can stretch $10 better than me. Now I got one too. Loved it.
