    Awesome job and congrats! on your new goodies! In the end (a month or two :) ) you won't remember you spent a fortune and all is well! I would love to take a class in pp. I made one mariner's compass and it's wavy in the center and it's the center of my patriotic quilt. I should redo since it's been years since I've done it. haha

    Awesome block!

    Aren't classes at quilt shops fun! LOL I went to a night class a couple of weeks ago, and we ended up spending madly at midnight. Not many places you can do that. ;-)

    Barb - thank you for the links. For the first time, I've actually looked at patterns such as those and thought "I just might try that". Quite a heady feeling!! I'm going crazy with so many opportunities opening up before me.
