Probably because I know what I'm thinking but I'm not good at putting it on computer screen.

I'm asking have you noticed any issues with your cricut using fabric in it? Do you have to replace the cutter often?

I've been wanting a Cricut but don't do many paper crafts (I need a new hobby like I need a new hole in my head) ... but never thought to use it on fabric ... do you just do one piece of fabric at a time?

Just curious how good the cricut was at making applique ...

That's what I get for reading posts late at night ... I read your post to say cricut ... I have cricut on the brain as I was thinking how cool it would be to get one and do paper crafts and was thinking I can't do any other crafts ... I have more crafts than I do anything else :/

Sorry for the confusion :D

Hi Everyone,

My blocks are done and will be put in the mail this afternoon or tomorrow.

It's supposed to be 108' today with the heat index. Too bad the snowman blocks didn't cool things down. LOL.

The blocks I received in exchange are going to be a Christmas present for my Mom. She collects snowman, etc. and is a quilter. She is going to LOVE what you all have created!

No, it just has to contrast with the snowmen, so they stand out.

I have two blocks to complete the stitching on and trim them all, then into the mail they go. If I miss the mail pickup Saturday, then they're in the mail on Monday. I hope everyone likes what I've made.

This has been a fun creative challenge! Rose Hall, I know what you mean about it being too bad these blocks don't make it seem cooler, but I found a way myself: We have been keeping the AC around 68 degrees, so as I'm sewing (and the vent with the cool air is right next to my sewing table) I get goosebumps!

Whatever it takes to keep me cool!
