Mama, here is a tip I was told when I had a lot of steam a seam. Wrap it up very tightly and tie with a piece of scrap cloth then put in a plastic bag and keep cool. It does work. :D

Thanks every one for checking them out. I wish my tulips turned out as good as the mums too. Here they are though...

These blocks are just so beautiful, the person you are giving them to is going to be so happy.

Elle, after all the work I'm putting in on these blocks I'm not giving it away. It will just stay home with me..When the cats are all gone I get it out and use it. Still have a lot of work to do on it but will probably not be finished by the show on Saturday. They need to be stitched and I'm putting a sashing on each of them. The quilting is the worst part for me so I'm sure I'll send it out to Linda for that.

Glad everyone likes them..Thanks,

Good for you, think you deserve that one. I had a look on whims at that one and as well as being beautiful its very expensive to it will be so worth it to see it on your own bed.

It cost me about $23.95 every month for a year. Very expensive. I didn't plan on getting anything but the first free one. HA HA. Then they kept coming.
